Nolte: Poll Proves National Media Push to Legitimize Violence Is Working

John Nolte 2 Oct 2020

Polling shows the national media’s years-long push to legitimize political violence is working.

Roughly one-third of the public believe “it is justified for [my political party] to use violence in advancing political goals.”

A whopping 26 percent of those who self-identify as “very liberal” believe there is a “great deal” of justification to commit political violence if Joe Biden loses.

Only 16 percent of those who identify as “very conservative” said the same about a Trump loss, a number that is still disturbingly high.

This YouGov poll of 5,900 respondents, with a 1.5 to three point margin of error, found 36 percent of Republicans and 33 percent of Democrats believe political violence — which is terrorism — is at least “a little or more” justified.

“In September, 44 percent of Republicans and 41 percent of Democrats said there would be at least ‘a little’ justification for violence if the other party’s nominee wins the election,” the poll found. “Those figures are both up from June, when 35 percent of Republicans and 37 percent of Democrats expressed the same sentiment.”

Just three years ago, in this same poll, only eight percent in each party expressed that sentiment. So over three years, this number has essentially quadrupled.

Sure, there's been no consequence for the left to commit political violence - they've been granted license, while anyone who stands against them has been pilloried by the rat media.

We'll see how they feel when they realize they might not always be the one's dealing out the violence.

Many of them are already stewing in their own juices. I'm sure most of the people in those ritzy neighborhoods in Portland BLM marched through at night banging drums and hollering through megaphones were not happy at all to be woken at 2-3 am to hear some morons screaming and yelling at them.
But yet 90% of them probably voted for their idiot mayor, Ted (Weasel) Wheeler, and will probably vote for him again. They deserve to get what they want....good and hard.
