Can we really blame one side over the other for the hate and violence?

Democrats are the ones who support thug organizations like antifa and BLM.

Donald Trump is the most outspoken and racist element in this, advocating violence on many level, laughing at suggestions to shoot people and offering to pay legal fees for assault. The Republicans are not there yet.

Neither side is getting at the cause of the killings. It's a nationwide cultural change that began over 50 years ago. Young people lose faith in their families, their parents divorce, they seek drugs and alcohol, they live lonely lives away from their family roots, they become self-absorbed, then groups of people get on their nerves, they buy weapons and open fire. Both parties would like to bring back family values and shouldn't be ashamed to discuss that in the upcoming campaigns.

There is no call for open borders from Democrats; just humane treatment for refugees, no wall and improved and enforced existing laws on illegal immigration.

Maybe it's time to stop looking for who to blame, and start looking for solutions?

We know that the shooting in El Paso was racially motivated and we know our current POTUS is a racist who promotes racism. So yes, absolutely we can blame one side over another.

FFS, no one on the democratic side is even calling for open borders. Where does that myth come from?

Democrat candidates said they are going to decriminalize border crossing and provide all illegals with free healthcare. They speak in Spanish in national level debates which is pandering specifically to illegals ( Because most of the legal hispanics can understand and speak English very well.)

These ultra leftist, illegal pandering nut jobs are serious threat to the country. Not justifying the shooter. But the extreme far left turn taken by democrats in last couple of years is making people concerned about the country.

No, only individuals are to blame for their crimes, lawfully and morally.

Democrats and liberals have radically changed over the last few years. Their policies will be the downfall of this country. JFK would roll over in his grave if he heard them today.

Democrats are not calling for open borders.

Your position is that the Hispanics / Latinos should be saying "pardon me for living".
