The phrase implies that violent actions and hateful rhetoric can lead to a build-up of negative emotions and further aggressive behavior making the situation worse. These killings have a root cause, the hateful, disrespectful speech of some of our leaders in office right now, not just one, but many that are in key positions have created this concept, and those that are weak minded and demon possessed are acting out on their emotions.

We have got to grasp the idea that love and understanding are need to combat hate, as MLK's quote stated "Hate begats Hate" violence begats violence, toughness begets toughness. We must meet forces of hate with the power of love. Praying for the Representative and her husband who were killed families and the other victims of this madness as well. There were 45 names on this man's list!

While that is true, I suspect that both sides would consider your comments true of the other side.

The problem is, that principle alone would implement even God, who hated Esau.

The truth is, between good and evil--there is a war going on. Love and hate are a big part of things, but what is broken is not to be fixed by only love. God being the best example: He has not only loved, but fully intends to destroy evil--with holy fire.

Meanwhile, to know who is who beyond the masquerade-- "by their fruits you will know them" (Matthew 7:20).

I appreciate your words, and I do know that both sides would point fingers at the other, I do believe that God, Yahweh is LOVE as 1John 4:7-8 explains to us "whoever doe not love does not know God, because God is Love! those being used by the enemy are showing their faces to us, unashamed of the turmoil they are causing, however I do agree with you, He will destroy evil, with fire.

In my post I did not mention any names, and I appreciated the response that Scott A gave, because it was one of wisdom and just plain common sense, I also realize contrary to post above that liberal is not a dirty word as well as conservative, I for one do NOT label myself, if I did I would say I'm a centric, there are EXTREMIST on both sides. but as you can see from the link I posted this man does not have the wisdom to lead anyone.

I wouldn't call him either.

He's a effeminate communist girly man who doesn't know his rear end from deep center field :funlaugh2
I had decided to intentionally NOT address you in posts, because it's obvious you are full of male cow feces, however what is your feelings in reference to this murderer killing individuals over political differences? (This should be interesting)

I am not in the least surprised that the rabid political rhetoric in my country has turned into violence and assassinations. It's like the 60s all over again, without the great music.

I have to ask myself, what can (and should) I, as a follower of Jesus Christ, do to turn my people back from the way of perpetual anger and violence?

Put your gun back in its holster, for all who draw the gun will perish by the gun. - A modern version of Matthew 26:52.

Opinions are like rear ends, everybody has one even erroneous ones.

Sorry to hear you've been infected with liberalism :Ohz
Just as I thought no wisdom just a fleshy response, I will just continue to ignore you, however since I assume you believe in your heart and proclaim with your mouth that you are saved, I pray that your heart grows closer to Christ and His love so that in your daily walk lifting up His Name will draw others and your self-righteousness won't run them away. Don't bother to respond, it would be a waste of your time, your foolishness will not be received

I know, I know - those that don't agree with you are not real Christians.

I've heard that fake line before.

And BTW, it is true that everyone has an opinion.

A comment like that can fall back on yourself too.

Yes and a comment like that can fall back on yourself too.

I'm advocating accepting God's Word as being literal as He intended.

Those falsely teaching man's wisdom as though it were the wisdom of the Lord sadly don't accept all the Lord says which is how they get deceived in to false doctrine such as greasy grace, calvinism, catholicism jehovah witnesses, etc, etc

Any idea which leaders ?
Wow, I had not heard that, man is insane obviously! I didn't think they would bring him in alive, these type usually do suicide by cop, assaulting the police head on. There are those that we hear saying unnecessary mess, that outrages individuals instead of bringing peace to a situation. Leaders have to have diplomacy, at least leaders that care for ALL their constituents.
