"A hate group is a social group that advocates and practices hatred, hostility, or violence towards members of a race, ethnicity, nation, religion, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation or any other designated sector of society."
Clearly the rabid daily explosions of hatred from the Democrats in Washington, their mouthpieces in the media, and their activists on social media far surpass this banal definition.
When President Obama exhorts his Latino supporters; "When they bring a knife, we bring a gun"
When Georgetown Prof. Carol Christine Fair tweeted during the hearings on the Kavanaugh smear that Republican Senators on the Judiciary Committee,
"All of them deserve miserable deaths while feminists laugh as they take their last gasps. Bonus: we castrate their corpses and feed them to swine? Yes."When CNN compared Trump supporters to ISIS beheaders
When Maxine Waters Tells Democrats to confront Trump admin officials when they are seen in public. "Get in their faces" Harass them, shame them.
When Actor Alec Baldwin urged a television audience of approximately three million viewers to murder Congressman Henry Hyde
When Liberal activists are indicted/ arrested for threatening to kill Rep. Diane Black , Shooting Rep. Steve Scalise, Threatening the daughters of Rep. Jason Lewis. Threatened to kill Sen. Rand Paul with an axe. Or another who actually beat Paul. Or being arrested at the offices of Rep. Lee Zeldin threatening to kill Trump supporters.
When A top spokesman for the Tennessee Democratic Party's effort to get Phil Bredesen elected senator has said he views "white male" gun owners as "the biggest terrorist organization on the planet."
When Democrat activists show up at Sen. McConnells home yelling "stab the mother*** in the heart", and "Kill the Mother***"
When Democrats refer to Republicans as; "The Taliban, Hostage takers, Racists, Bigots, Homophobes, White Nationalists, White Supremacists" That is doing nothing but spreading hate.
And these are but a very few of the daily comments from the Left spewing hatred for anyone who disagrees with their ideology. This is actively encouraged by the Democrats in Washington, cheered on by the Democrat media. Defended and justified by the Democrat Academia.
If this were done by any other group, the "Hate Group" designation would already have been made. It is beyond time for both sides to be treated by the same set of standards.
