I see an orchestrated insurgency utilizing every sociological and psychological tool for subversion and demoralization of our country - in whole.
It's always been there. If your enemy has an effective strategy, he'll continue using it until it doesn't work and then try something else.
I think the Left is very confident that conservatives will respond loudly to violence and dismiss the peaceful protesters with little more than a throw-away comment about their right to protest. As a result, those protesting will readily embrace the view that conservatives are only interested in equal rights as an abstract concept and lightening quick to lump peaceful protesters with the criminals and Antifa fringe. If we don't recognize that in our response to events, we feed their narrative.
Ironically, it's what I hate about the Left when they characterize gun owners as tolerant of Nazi flag wavers and skinheads. Unfortunately, the Leftists operate like a professional group in organizing, coordinating their message, and orchestrating events; conservatives are amateurs by comparison.
