Be careful, you might be branded alt-right. Or "worse", a Trump supporter.

This is a good article, and the points made about the media bias seem solid. It might be worth noting that with the midterm elections so close, left-leaning media has even more incentive than usual to try and tie republicans to Sayoc.

I do think its important that the intentions of this would-be bomber are examined a little more. My impression is that this bomber is a terrorist. I mean that in the proper sense, where fear is used as a political weapon. In contrast to the shooter, who was simply a failed assassin.

I could be wrong about the bomber, perhaps he's just as incompetent as the shooter who couldn't make a kill with an SKS at 60 yards. All I really know is that both are idiots, since they both effectively fueled the propaganda machine of their opposition.

For the purposes of the discussion the author is focusing on these two, and the media response to them.
