AFAIK Trump is the only candidate who has encouraged violence against his opponents at his rallies.
What has Trump said, specifically, that encourages his supporters to commit violent acts against his opponents?
 
“If you see somebody getting ready to throw a tomato, knock the crap out of them,”
Trump encouraging his supporters to prevent his opponents from violenting attacking him is encouraging violence?
 
Surprised? No - its expected. Responding is touchy. It is more difficult because those who do not believe in God (atheists) and defend evil always keep at it. They have only one “job” to do, incite angry hatred, spew lies, and try to create despair. We must keep trying to be grounded in Truth and should a soul break through, be ready and able to help them. When we are not able to do this, we must remind outselves to turn it over to Our Lord, Jesus Christ.

I am responding purposely to stress the Almighty Power of God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit!
 
As I have said for years, the left is inherently totalitarian, as its goals are contrary to human nature and aspirations.
 
As far as I’m aware, nobody has been killed by “antifa” in the last few years, yet countless people have been murdered by the right.
Countless? Countless would be the number of people killed by leftist regimes around the world over the last 5 or 6 decades. Google your own details.
That there are some who claim to be on the right who are violent there is no doubt, but Antifa is violent.
I don’t “support” antifa (in as much as that means anything) because they’re pretty ineffectual and liberal,
Tell the guy who got beat up that they are ineffectual, or on the numerous college campuses where they have violently disrupted speeches and events. As for liberal, there is nothing liberal about them. They are fascistic thugs.
but this focus on their violence (and the supposed violence of the Left) seems weird considering how many right wing shootings there have been in the last few years.
See above. And see how many of these so-called right wing shooters regularly condemn conservatives.
 
If you think I would not speak the name of Jesus Christ and share my Faith on a Catholic Answer Forum, I cannot imagine why - never have I been told there was a rule against it. The thought of it leaves me sad, but I know it is not so.
I do not “try” to denounce Satan and all his evil - I restate an Oath to do so at every Baptism.

The politically correct that try to stop the mention of God is hard at it. Schools, public grounds, Crosses, and disguising words that are meant to deceive, are ripe with their intent. To learn the news of the day and attempt to know the truth and share it - is under attack. All the Angels and Saints will come to one’s assistance when the Love of God is proclaimed.
 
I have heard someone say this: there are boundaries on the right as to what is acceptable and what is not. When a person to the right of center gets into racism or racial superiority, he or she has gone too far.

There is no boundary like this on the left side of the spectrum. Thus, those on the left do not have a position beyond which they condemn, and so they end up being lumped together.

The left needs to find the position which most of them condemn. What @dvdjs said about the some hypothetical attacks (not Ngo’s)- “Neither do I see the latter as wholly blameless should that lead to violence.”-- is a symptom of that lack of boundary on the left.

It is false to say that I said that about the attack on Ngo. And i ask that you correct your statement. What I said wasn’t all that subtle, and it made no conclusion about the Ngo case whatsoever.

Do I need to supply more detail about a well-known term?
You seem to be misunderstanding the term. An agent provacateur is someone who pretends to be on the side of the one to be provoked, and tries to get them to do things they otherwise would not do, in order to discredit themselves or get put in jail.

So, if I, a pro-life person, pretended to agree with the local NaRAL group and joined them, and then tried to get them to blow up pro-life pregnancy centers, I would be being an agent provocateur.

If I as a pro-life person spoke out in public about the evils of those who support legalized abortion, then I would not be being an agent provocateur, and they ought not attack me, even if I am extremely obnoxious.
 
I apologize, what I wrote came out more strongly than I had intended.

Thank for the apology. But it wasn’t a matter of the strength of your words that I take issued with. The criticism was simply false.
