It is interesting that this dataset seems to exclude the heyday of left wing violence that was the '60s and '70s, it would be interesting to see how this dataset handles the massive amount of left wing violence and destruction that happened from 2014 to 2021 also. It's simply noteworthy to see a left leaning outlet actually publishing this.

" POLITICAL VIOLENCE: THE NUMBERS DON'T LIE - A COMPREHENSIVE BREAKDOWN OF ATTACKS AGAINST CONSERVATIVES VERSUS LIBERALS (2016-2025) Well, well, well. Another day, another progressive claiming the right is violent while conveniently ignoring the mountains of evidence showing exactly the opposite. Let me provide you with the actual DATA on assassination attempts, threats, and political violence since 2016 - because apparently facts still matter to some of us. ASSASSINATION ATTEMPTS: THE SHOCKING DISPARITY ATTEMPTS AGAINST CONSERVATIVES: 6-7 CONFIRMED Donald Trump (2016-2024): At least 5 confirmed assassination attempts by leftist extremists: June 2016: Michael Steven Sandford attempted to grab a police officer's gun at a Trump rally¹ September 2017: Gregory Lee Leingang tried to ram Trump's motorcade with a forklift¹ July 13, 2024: Thomas Matthew Crooks shot Trump at a Pennsylvania rally, injuring Trump and killing bystander Corey Comperatore² September 15, 2024: Ryan Wesley Routh attempted to shoot Trump at his golf club² Additional thwarted plots in 2024 with accomplices arrested Charlie Kirk (2025): Conservative influencer and Trump ally assassinated in September 2025; shooter politically presumed leftist³⁴⁵ Justice Brett Kavanaugh (2022): Nicholas Roske, armed with weapons, arrested near Kavanaugh's residence in attempted assassination after being "upset about the leak of a recent Supreme Court draft decision regarding the right to abortion"⁶ ATTEMPTS AGAINST LIBERALS: ZERO That's right - ZERO confirmed assassination attempts on prominent left-wing figures or Democrats by right-wing attackers with publicly identified perpetrators matching this criteria in this timeframe. SUPREME COURT JUSTICE THREATS: OVERWHELMINGLY FROM THE LEFT The data shows HUNDREDS of threats annually against federal judges, with Supreme Court justices bearing the brunt. The majority of credible threats and physical attacks against Supreme Court justices have come from LEFT-WING EXTREMISTS, particularly following controversial conservative rulings. Notable incidents include: Multiple bomb threats (Justice Amy Coney Barrett's sister received a bomb threat in 2025) Death threats and targeted harassment via social media Attempted physical attacks and stalking at justices' homes involving their families Threats from right-wing against left-leaning justices: Less documented or less frequent in public reports over this timeline. THE CONGRESSIONAL BASEBALL SHOOTING: WHEN POLITICAL HATRED TURNED DEADLY June 14, 2017: James T. Hodgkinson, a 66-year-old Bernie Sanders supporter and Trump-hater, opened fire on Republican congressmen practicing for their annual charity baseball game. This wasn't some spontaneous outburst - this was PREMEDITATED POLITICAL TERRORISM. The Facts: Hodgkinson fired 70 rounds from an SKS rifle and 9mm handgun⁷ He had been "casing" the field since April, taking cellphone video⁸ He approached congressmen the day before asking if Republicans or Democrats were practicing⁹ He had a HIT LIST of six conservative members of Congress¹⁰ He was living out of his van, having traveled to DC specifically to "protest" and target Republicans¹¹ Victims: House Majority Whip Steve Scalise (shot in hip, nearly died) Capitol Police officer Crystal Griner (shot in ankle) Congressional aide Zack Barth Lobbyist Matt Mika Hodgkinson's Political Profile: Bernie Sanders volunteer¹² Posted "Trump is a Traitor. Trump Has Destroyed Our Democracy. It's Time to Destroy Trump & Co."¹³ "Republicans are the Taliban of the USA"¹³ Member of Facebook groups "Terminate The Republican Party" and "The Road to Hell Is Paved With Republicans"¹³ Watched Rachel Maddow, Bill Maher, and "Democracy Now!"¹³ ARSON ATTACKS: THE PATTERN CONTINUES Right-wing conservative targets: 2025 arson at Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro's residence by assumed rightist extremist Republican Party HQs targeted (New Mexico GOP HQ in 2025) Left-wing targets: Multiple arson attacks by far-left extremists targeting police precincts, government buildings, and public properties during protest movements (2016-2025) RECENT SURVEY DATA: THE LEFT'S EMBRACE OF POLITICAL VIOLENCE A 2025 Network Contagion Research Institute report found SHOCKING levels of support for political violence among the left: 55% of left-of-center respondents said assassinating President Trump would be "at least somewhat justified" 48% of leftists said the same about assassinating Elon Musk 58% of left-leaning Americans deemed it acceptable to "destroy a Tesla dealership" in protest¹⁴ OTHER NOTABLE ATTACKS ON CONSERVATIVES Family Research Council Shooting (2012): Floyd Lee Corkins II, motivated by the Southern Poverty Law Center's "hate map," shot and wounded a security guard while carrying Chick-fil-A sandwiches he planned to smear on victims' faces¹⁵ Paul Pelosi Attack: While this was indeed an attack on a Democrat's family member, the perpetrator's motivations were mixed and included conspiracy theories from multiple sources. THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA'S CONVENIENT AMNESIA Notice how every time there's political violence from the left, the media either: Ignores it entirely Claims the perpetrator was "mentally ill" (but somehow never applies this standard to right-wing violence) Blames "both sides" for creating a "climate of hate" Memory-holes it within 48 hours Meanwhile, any violence that can be even tangentially linked to conservatives gets 24/7 coverage for weeks. THE BOTTOM LINE The data is crystal clear: from 2016-2025, we've seen 6-7 assassination attempts against conservatives versus ZERO against liberals. We've seen hundreds of threats against conservative Supreme Court justices versus minimal documented threats against liberal justices. We've seen a Bernie Sanders supporter attempt to massacre Republican congressmen while they practiced for a CHARITY baseball game. But sure, keep telling us about how the right is the violent side. The numbers don't lie, even if the narrative does. When progressives talk about "threats to democracy," maybe they should look in the mirror. Because the evidence shows exactly who's been doing the threatening, the shooting, and the attempting to assassinate their political opponents. youtu.be/i5t8wHzpCdI?si #ConservativesUnderAttack #PoliticalViolenceData #AssassinationAttempts #ScaliseStrong #CharliKirkRIP #SupremeCourtThreats #CongressionalBaseball #MediaBias #ViolentLeft #FactsOverNarrative Sources:¹ Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project (ACLED) analysis ² Multiple assassination attempts on Donald Trump, 2024 ³ Charlie Kirk assassination, September 2025 ⁴ CNN analysis of Kirk assassination ⁵ Conservative influencer violence data ⁶ Nicholas Roske Supreme Court threat case ⁷ Congressional baseball shooting investigation report ⁸ Commonwealth's Attorney report on Hodgkinson ⁹ Eyewitness testimony from Congressional baseball shooting ¹⁰ FBI investigation findings ¹¹ Law enforcement interviews with Hodgkinson family ¹² Bernie Sanders campaign ack nowledgment ¹³ CNN analysis of Hodgkinson's social media ¹⁴ Network Contagion Research Institute report, 2025 ¹⁵ Family Research Council shooting case files."
