There wouldn't be riots because of Trump fans.

For all the like to preach about tolerance, the left has a far greater reputation for starting violence since Trump took office.

Well we had a whole thread about right-wing extremists accounting for all the massacres that happened in 2018.

Most violence wasn't massacres.

Early 1990's rioting was a response to police brutality. BLM erupted after Zimmerman was acquitted. Civilian on civilian assault doesn't really cause riots.

Uh, yeah. ''Massacre'' is too extreme a word.

Here's the thing: words have meanings. ''Massacre'' translates to ''indiscriminate mass slaughter''. Your thread, which I have read BTW, had very little mass slaughter. Sorry.

Well it wasn't exactly my thread, but hyperbole aside they were heinous crimes.
