One of the left’s favorite shrieking points – like a chanting point, but delivered in an insistent, high-pitched, angry squeal – was that the right, especially the Tea Party, was\/is involved in delivering an “avalanche of violence” upon their opponents.<\/p>\n

But any sort of detailed investigation shows that, in fact, the prohibitive majority of political violence in this country is left-on-right.<\/p>\n

One of my many small projects has been to create a page – an online museum, if you will – commemorating each act of left-on-right violence in recent years.<\/p>\n

For purposes of this page, “violence” is defined as physical violence resulting in injury or death, and property damage at a felony level.<\/p>\n

And I’m going to throw it open to you, the audience, as I give the Shot In The Dark <\/em>“Climate of Hate”<\/a> page its formal debut.<\/p>\n

Please send me any examples of significant <\/em>left-on-right political violence in the past decade. \u00a0Remember – injuries and\/or felony property damage. Links are appreciated – unlike the left, we on the right need to substantiate our accusations. \u00a0I’ll give you credit (unless you disclaim it) in the museum.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
