Former President Trump was the victim of an attack. This violent act is rightly denounced. But we must not bury our heads in the sand. The United States is a violent country, where gun control is almost non-existent, where mass shootings are frequent, where some cities, like Chicago, experience several murders every day, etc.
Should we also recall that Donald Trump often uses contemptuous and violent language towards his opponents? Should we also recall his complacency towards the rioters during the assault on the Capitol on January 6, 2021? Verbal violence often precedes physical violence. Both types of violence are to be condemned. My conclusion will be very simple: he who sows the wind reaps the whirlwind. Peace.
