Please explain what you considered to be "incivility" in this past election cycle. Then explain how any of it could really push a sane person in to murdering innocent people.

Not my post but here goes. I don't think incivility (or the like) pushes a sane person to murder innocent people. It's those mentally imbalanced people out there that I worry about. Too often, it doesn't take much to push them over the edge. Those who already believe that the government is after them or trying to control their minds are, I suspect, more likely to act when swarms of politicians hit the airwaves to talk about how government is taking over their healthcare, taking away their liberties, taking all their money, etc.
