This is the worst thing about Trump's candidacy ... it's unhinged folks to the point where violence is not only re-entering American politics, but where we be looking at its prolonged presence in our plitical landscape.

When did acts of violence leave politics? It's never been right but sure been around. I'm not convinced that it ever left.

Boru

That was my first thought.

Regardless, I hope the perpetrator(s) are caught and prosecuted. This is unacceptable.

Violence against one's political opponent, stoked by a candidate? I'm struggling to remember such incidents.

I don't care what political leanings these people had, this is one of the worst ways you can try to get things your way. I hope you find your way into a prison cell instead, asshats.
I don't believe you. Get over it.

Unintentional irony
Quote:Volunteer Bob Randall was there to clean up Sunday. He said he believes that the bombing was an act of political terrorism and that it would get people angry and motivated to vote Republican.
“The idea is to intimidate us, to make us crawl back in the shadows,” he said. “But I think it’s going to backfire on them.”
http://www.charlotteobserver.com/news/politics-government/article108627627.html

Clearly, that was the idea, yes.  Probably should have articulated it another way, though.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
