"It could have been a dozen other places in this country; the violence has been building unabated for three months now. Every day the mob becomes more radical."
- Lie, lie, and lie.
You left out the rest of that quote. "By some accounts 30 Americans have died so far in these riots. Democrats have openly encouraged them. Republican leaders have been too fearful to stop them. Some have applauded it all."
Now you may disagree with the wording here, which is certainly loaded with Tucker's biases. That's fine, but isn't your central argument is to counter what I stated?
Maybe conservatives do care about the unnecessary loss of life..
It's pretty clear that Tucker does care that 30 Americans have been killed during these riots and wants them to stop.
"The riots have been personal and painful for this country."
"A party that tolerates rioting, has no future in a democracy. Human beings crave order, it's a prerequisite for life. They fear uncertainty above all. People will trade virtually anything for a relief from chaos. That's a fact of human nature; it's always true. And politicians who understand that, win. Rudy Giuliani got elected twice in an overwhelmingly Democratic city twice because he knew, that underneath it all, everyone hates lawlessness. Everyone."
I don't need to insert my own opinions to interpret his words. You can decide for yourself if what Tucker said broadcasts to his audience that conservatives don't care about the unnecessary loss of life.
"Democratic have openly encouraged encouraged them."
- Lie. Democrats support solving the problems at the base of the protest, not "looting".
- “The needless violence won’t heal us.” -Joe Biden
No, it's "pretty clear" that Tucker only cares about the loss of life so he can use it as a fear-mongering tool to help Trump get re-elected.
Which is why he (and all conservatives that I see) are simultaneously glorifying and excusing the murderer, while attempting to blame Democrats for the murders.
That is
entirely consistent with the general trend of Tucker's (and Trump's, and all other conservative's) love of fear-and-hate-mongering, and
not at all consistent with a regard for life. Or else, you know, conservatives would be condemning the right-wing domestic terrorists too.
And Democrats do not "tolerate rioting". That's yet another blatant lie. Democratic leaders have been speaking out against violence in the protest for months. Democrats have been attempting to de-escalate. It's
Republicans that have consistently been pro-political violence. It's
Republicans who have been attempting to
escalate every situation
to violence to provide more fuel for their "law and order" rhetoric.
"The military is on the way. Any difficulty and we will assume control but, when the looting starts, the shooting starts!"
"Let's just shoot people trying to cross the boarder."
"When you see these thugs being thrown into the back of a paddy wagon, you just seen them thrown in, rough. I said, 'Please don't be too nice,'"
<About Republican Representative Gianforte, who famously assaulted a reporter who dared ask him about his position on health care> "'Any guy that can do a body slam, he is my type!' Trump said on Thursday to cheers."
I mean we could go on and on. Republicans (president, congresspeople, talking heads on TV) are
regularly calling for and glorifying violence. Tucker included, in this video, by implying that vigilante murders are good and necessary to stop the "violent rioters" (never mind that the violence is being instigated/committed by the vigilantes).
Democrats are not, Democrats are universally condemning it. I'm sure you can find some internet idiot on the left that's glorifying it, but you know that's not a fair comparison.
Tucker is not stating a neutral fact that "everyone hates lawlessness". He is saying that people
should vote for Trump, because apparently Trump's re-election to the presidency will allow him to stop the "lawlessness" that he is unable to stop now. Tucker is not sad that these murders happened, he is very explicitly saying that they are
justified and
righteous, and that more people should be like Rittenhouse.
So no, this video does not back up your claim that conservatives [in general] are sad about unnecessary loss of life.
