Today Rand Paul warned that there might be an “assassination” if those who are “ratcheting up the conversation” don’t start toning it down. As a guy who was attacked and badly beaten just last year, he knows what he’s talking about. We should listen to him.
But, as I detailed yesterday, Democrats are headed rapidly and resolutely in the other direction. Many prominent Democratic figures and lawmakers have explicitly encouraged the chaos and violence. Many others have remained approvingly silent. Eric Holder is the latest Democrat to try his hand at stirring up a mob. He told a cheering crowd, “When they go low, we kick them.” He also called for “rage,” and, most startlingly, openly questioned the “legitimacy” of the Supreme Court.
