The left has grown increasingly violent since their loss in the presidential election… and they’re beginning to flirt with outright terrorism!
Increased security has been required at some town halls. Elected Republicans are increasingly fearful for their own safety following a string of violent death threats.
Left-wing activists are expressing their disapproval of President Donald Trump by threatening to take the lives of those who support him — and now the F.B.I has been forced to step in and protect these lawmakers.
Federal agents arrested 58-year-old Steve Martan on Friday after he left U.S. Rep. Martha McSally, a conservative, intimidating phone calls where he suggested her days “were numbered,” due to her support of Trump, The Arizona Republic reported.
And other threats allegedly also from Martan are even worse.
In one call, he shared a horrific plan saying, “Martha our sights are set on you, right between your (expletive) eyes.”
He continued, “Can’t wait to (expletive) pull the trigger (expletive).”
Martan admitted to the calls, saying he was “venting frustrations with Congresswoman McSally’s congressional votes in support of the President of the United States,” according to court records.
McSally’s office noted the 2011 shooting of Rep. Gabrielle Giffords as reasoning for the increased concern over the calls.
But McSally isn’t the only instance of the left threatening violence to those they disagree with politically.
Early in the month, a woman was arrested after police claimed she attempted to run a congressman off the road because she didn’t agree with his recent vote on the Republican health care bill.
35-year-old Wendi Wright of Tennessee was charged with felony reckless endangerment after tailing the car of Republican Rep. David Kustoff, according to NBC.
When Kustoff rerouted to the nearby home of a friend to avoid Wright, she followed him and proceeded to scream, bang on the windows and reach inside the car.
While she left before the police arrived, they were able to track her down after she idiotically decided to brag on Facebook about her barbaric actions.
A spokesman for another lawmaker, Rep. Tom Garrett, told The Hill that he has faced at least three death threats since he revealed his support of Trump’s healthcare bill, with one madman posting graphic details of how he planned to kill Garrett to his campaign’s Facebook page.
Other Republican lawmakers have described the intensity of protests at their town halls, where they are facing disapproval for things that are woven into the foundation of our country.
“They booed God. They booed the pastor. They booed the prayer. They booed the name of the church. They booed when I said rights come from God,” Rep. Dave Brat told The Hill. “That’s a fundamental tenet of western civilization. I mean, I didn’t think that was partisan.”
New Jersey Rep. Tom MacArthur described the disgusting reaction from the liberals in the crowd when he recounted the heart-wrenching story of his special-needs daughter who passed away at age 11.
“This child in 11 years has shaped my life more than anybody. So if I talk about my daughter too much, well then so be it. But this is one human being that has impacted my life more than anybody,” MacArthur said as he defended himself to the unruly crowd.
These instances of violence and inciting fear are proof that the left has officially gone too far in their opposition to Republican lawmakers, reaching a level considered by some to be as low as that of terrorist organizations.
Now, experts are fearing they will go that far.
