The O.G. of GOP Violence: It's tradition!

I'll give you that.

And yet every where you look, Democrats are on the wrong side of the issue of violence. Why is it ( and has always been generally speaking ), that every police department in America and especially in our major cities like New York and Chicago, the police associations ( and military ) back the Republican candidate? Racists? Or concerned citizens that see Democrat policies as the leading reason for this uptick in violence

He just can't ignore me. What a mook!

I'm on ignore, so this is okay.

Of Guideline # 4 . . .

#4 - Blatant insults or hostility toward another member will be met with staff intervention. This applies to using our coed forums for name calling, personal attacks, or vulgar slang terms to describe fellow members. If you have legitimate concerns about another member here, share them tactfully in the appropriate private forums or with staff.

. . . And where does this violence spring from? From ignorance and hatred-- the exact antonyms of Learning and Reason. Learning and Reason: those two words of John Kennedy’s were not uttered in time to save his own life; but every man can pick them up where they fell, and make them part of himself, the seed of that rational intelligence without which our world can no longer survive. This must be the mission of every man of goodwill: to insist, unflaggingly, at risk of becoming a repetitive bore, but to insist on the achievement of a world in which the mind will have triumphed over violence.

We musicians, like everyone else, are numb with sorrow at this murder, and with rage at the senselessness of the crime. But this sorrow and rage will not inflame us to seek retribution; rather they will inflame our art. Our music will never again be quite the same. This will be our reply to violence: to make music more intensely, more beautifully, more devotedly than ever before. And with each note we will honor the spirit of John Kennedy, commemorate his courage, and reaffirm his faith in the Triumph of the Mind.


The following month, on December 10, 1963 in Tel Aviv, Bernstein’s next major work, the Kaddish Symphony, had its world premiere performance with the Israel Philharmonic. Bernstein dedicated his Symphony: “To the beloved memory of John F. Kennedy.” The American premiere occurred on January 10, 1964, with Charles Munch and the Boston Symphony Orchestra at Symphony Hall, near Kennedy’s hometown of Brookline Massachusetts.

Thanks for posting.

Officers arrived at the Pelosi residence at 2:27 a.m. Scott said they knocked on the door and the door was opened by "someone inside." Officers saw Mr. Pelosi and an adult male, who police have identified as 42-year-old David Depape, "both holding a hammer."

The suspect, who broke into the home using a rear door "pulled the hammer away from Mr. Pelosi and violently assaulted him with it."

"Our officers immediately tackled the suspect, disarmed him, took him into custody, requested emergency backup, and rendered medical aid," Scott said, adding both Depape and Pelosi were transported to a local hospital for treatment.

Although the investigation is ongoing and police have not yet released a motive for the attack, Scott stressed this was not a random act of violence.

"This was intentional," he said.

A source briefed on the attack told NPR the assailant was searching for Speaker Pelosi, and confronted her husband, shouting, "Where is Nancy, where is Nancy?"
