I could point to the anti-police rhetoric and victimization of minorities that the left uses as something that the left does that leads to violence (riots or gang violence).

Ultimately, blaming political rhetoric for the attacks of those who are mentally ill or anti-social is either ignorant or straight up dishonest.

This obsession to learn the political affiliations of people who are clearly mentally ill is frankly ridiculous, and giving attention to these folks deranged "manifesto" has much more directly encouraged these events than any political rhetoric.

The reason they write a manifesto before they murder people is because they want to be heard. When you attempt to use them as a political tool, are you really condemning them, or are you actively rewarding them?

It’s so plainly exploiting massacre as a partisan tool.

The Dayton Ohio shooter, STEM school shooter, and Congressional baseball shooter were all active left-wing activists but there is no equivalent examination and hand-wringing in the media. The activity is clearly unnecessary and just fuels more indignation and division.
