The behavior you describe is neither left or right, it is the actions of disturbed individuals committing criminal acts. It would be like taking a poll in a prison to determine the political views of each murderer. The conclusion , they are all right, or they are all left hence everyone from whatever side is a murderer.   However, that is what the media does today. Makes great cover stories. Fact is, criminal behavior exists and did long before any political hate peddling.   The difference today, we as a nation have dumbed down and actually believe that stuff.

I think we are on the same page as how this stuff all occurs anymore in the media and is immediately labeled political. Hence we solve no problems, create animosity between good people and the rancor continues.
