One of the things our Constitution enshrined in the First Amendment was the idea that people could have disagreements and discuss them with dignity and logic.
The left in recent years has thrown that idea out of the window, with Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) threatening Supreme Court justices for rulings he didn't like, and nutcase Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett warning Texas Republican Sen. Ted Cruz (“this dude has to be knocked over the head, like hard, right?... Like, you — you go clean off on him, right?")
But violence isn't just a theory—as we saw with the two attempted assassinations of Donald Trump and the aborted effort to kill SCOTUS Justice Brett Kavanaugh—it’s a reality. We’re seeing it with the domestic terrorism assaults on Teslas and Tesla dealerships, all because folks don't like DOGE Chief Elon Musk's attempts to cut waste, fraud, and abuse out of the federal government.
You need look no further than this fanatic abortion supporter clocking a reporter for having the temerity to ask questions to see just how tolerant and peaceful many leftists are. Warning for violent footage:
It went down in New York City on Thursday:
A pro-life activist in New York City was sucker-punched in the face while doing a street interview about abortion, leaving her bloodied and requiring stitches, viral video shows.
Savannah Craven Antao, a 23-year-old reporter for advocacy group Live Action, was conducting a man-on-the-street interview in Harlem on Thursday, discussing the topic of Planned Parenthood with an unidentified pro-abortion New Yorker.
They had what appeared to be a perfectly polite disagreement, until the attacker suddenly went berserk on the reporter:
“That’s not the point. What I’m saying is …,” the interviewee began before unleashing a combo of punches directly to Craven Antao’s face and quickly stalking away.
It’s pretty horrid stuff, and it left Craven Antao bloodied and badly shaken.
When you call for violence, you get violence:

On Saturday, the 23-year-old victim revealed that she’s getting flashbacks from the trauma:
The pro-life activist sucker punched during an interview on a Harlem street is struggling after the shocking violence — which she said was emblematic of the entire pro-choice movement.
“A lot of the pro-abortion movement is violence and abortion is violence, therefore it breeds violence,” Savannah Craven Antao, a 23-year-old reporter for advocacy group Live Action, fumed in a Saturday interview with The Post.
The woman who socked Craven Antao during the on-camera interview about Planned Parenthood is still on the loose, and the NYPD couldn’t say whether there were any leads in the case.
This is the tolerance we’re preached to about endlessly from progressives, yet it is they themselves who whip up anger and hate with inflammatory rhetoric. We’ll keep seeing more of it unless people like this pay the price.
She needs to be tracked down and thrown behind bars—post-haste.
Progressive zealots are increasingly resorting to violence and terrorism because they failed at the ballot box.
