It should be no surprise that less than a year after a Bernie Sanders fan took a rifle and attempted to erase the Congressional GOP for the crime of having different political views that some cretin decided to send Donald Trump Jr. a packet of mystery white powder. After all, Don Jr. is not a progressive, so don’t his and his family deserve to be terrorized, if not murdered?We're in a bad place. I have a college friend who thought it would be nifty and cool to dox a prominent conservative writer. This guy is a professional with a successful practice. He knows better, but we're at a point where treating your political enemies as subhuman is standard operating procedure and he's gone over to the mania. Schlicter has more examples in the linked piece. The bad place is going to get worse.
Or did I misunderstand the progressives’ stand by their near total silence?
Well, not total silence. The Twitter left sure had a ball with it, yukking it up. Dousing someone in fake anthrax – hilarious! And totally justified, in their minds, because Don Jr. supports his father and is conservative. That makes it okay. In fact, let’s help by posting his home address!

Those who "doxx" or attack others ought to remember that if you took a survey of the political attitudes of carry permit holders, they would likely trend strongly conservative. Those who pick fights with those on the legitimate right--I am excluding the Richard Spencer types here--may quickly find that they've effectively parked a rice burner at a biker bar.
Plus, people like Michelle Malkin have good ways of returning the favor when someone is abusive online. She's contacted HR departments several times to get abusive people fired.
meanwhile, Conservatives are still trying to win a debate that isn't taking place.
