Your opening statement is opinionated, factually incorrect, and unnecessarily divisive. Murder is not a matter of left or right as it stems from individual pathology, often tied to mental illness. Political affiliation is irrelevant in such cases.

Labeling and name-calling only deepen division and hostility. Conservatism, at its core, has historically meant preserving traditions, though its positions have shifted over time. Similarly, progressive movements have had both positive and negative impacts depending on the era.

I personally refuse to align fully with either side. What I do oppose is the deliberate incitement of hatred through oversimplification and demonization. That kind of rhetoric, not one’s political affiliation, undermines the principles America was built upon.
