Florida man attacks Trump supporters with his van
These sorts of things are going to start happening in greater frequency as the months go by in 2020, mark my words.
Unsurprisingly, this was not covered very heavily by the mass media, who realize they need to cover it to maintain some level of pretending to be unbiased, but it was just a brief blurb for the usual suspects such as CNN and MSNBC.

The thing that grinds my gears is that when describing the incident they use language such as "Man Arrested In Florida For Allegedly Driving Van into tent" or "Police say a man drove a van into a voter registration tent."
They dodge the issues that this was a targeted attack towards Trump supporters who were doing a voter registration drive and that there were PEOPLE that were being targeted in the tent. The liberal news sources attempt to paint a picture that this van driving loony has something against tents rather than the people inside of it. These people narrowly avoided being injured or killed. They also steer away (lol) from attempting to identify the political leanings of the driver, Gregory Timm.

Now I want you to imagine for a second if the players were reversed. If this had been a Democrat voter registration drive and someone drove a tent through it. The media would run absolutely wild with this story.
It would be on a constant rotation and there would be panels and roundtable discussions and various individuals claiming that Republicans and Trump made this happen. There would be calls for people to resign, there would be outrage of the highest order. The situation would quickly become a "hate crime" particularly if there was a minority in the tent.
This double standard in the news is a bit infuriating and unfair don't you think? I want you to wait and see if what i think is going to happen ends up being the case. They are either going to label him as being clinically mentally ill or stop talking about it very quickly whereas if the situation had been reversed we would never hear the end of it.
If this had happened in my neck of the woods, he would have at least had his tires shot out.
