My argument is we do not know everything that the professional people included, since we just have a media report, not the study. And we have many many reasons to think that political violence from the right is a clear and present danger. But you are not going to bestir yourself to give us even the smallest reason to think there is a slightly comparable danger from the left. But you will call the pollsters 'awful propagandists' because the Guardian did not present 'both sides.'
I still say what is awful is how you feel when the right gets knocked around, even for good cause.

It is a natural reaction when a study is presented with such blatant noise.

Without polling that indicates the percentage that would employ violence to keep Trump out of power the article should be listed under election propaganda.

It would be pretty close to zero. Dems, like most Republicans, believe in legal processes.

GREENSBORO, N.C. (AP) — Republican delegates in North Carolina voted Saturday at their annual convention to censure Thom Tillis, the state’s senior U.S. senator, for backing LGBTQ+ rights, immigration and gun violence policies.
As Sen. Tillis has gained influence in Congress for his willingness to work across the aisle, his record of supporting some key policies has raised concerns among some state Republicans that the senator has strayed from conservative values.
Several delegates in Greensboro criticized Tillis, who has held his seat in the Senate since 2015, for his work last year on the Respect For Marriage Act, which enshrined protections for same-sex and interracial marriages in federal law.

It sounds like the Republican delegates in North Carolina think Mr. Tillis too "woke" for them, LOL.

When I inquired about this, the guy(s) said it was not since the product sells by itself.
So I asked, "why do you need me then"?.
I was promptly ushered to the exit door, they did not want to entertain any further conversation with me. I was too young and naive then to see through the charade.
