From protest to terror: Texas ice attack underlines the rise in violence on the left

The shooting of three ICE agents in Texas marks Wednesday marks the most recent and cheeky example of a wave of left -wing political violence.

Of the double attempted assassinations of president Donald Trump For the murder of Charlie Kirk, a frightening scheme is undoubtedly: the implacable demonization of the left of the Conservatives feeds the blood effusions of the real world.

“This last shooting against the ice shows what is happening after decades of lack of consequences,” the director of the Border Security and Immigration Center of the Heritage Foundation told Fox News.

Ries has argued that decades of low immigration application have embraced groups of activists, who are now unleashed against today’s most difficult measures.

“We must apply the consequences early and often to crime, in particular violence and violations of immigration,” she added.

FBI director Kash Patel said that law enforcement officials have recovered anti-glazing messages on the scene. One of the delicacies of not spent shell was engraved by the expression “anti-ice”, stressing the belief of the investigators that the attack was politically motivated.

“These despicable attacks and with a political motivation against the police are not a single-off,” wrote Patel on a position in X. “We are only kilometers from Prarieland, Texas, where only two months ago, an individual has set an ambush to a separate ice installation targeting their officers,” he added.

And while the FBI comes from the responsibility, the managers of internal security underline the deeper problem: a rhetoric which has already transformed ice agents into open targets.

“We have said for months that rhetoric around our police, especially ice, dehumanization, demonization has undressed so far and that someone will injure themselves or that someone will be killed,” Fox News told Fox News.

“It must stop,” added McLaughlin during his interview on “America’s Newsroom”.

Apart from the government, analysts agree that the threat is serious – and more recently linked to the rhetoric of the left.

“There is a serious political problem in the United States,” Fox News Digital Charles Fain Lehman, a member of the Manhattan Institute, told Fox News.

He pointed out that all political violence is bad, but noted that “the most recent series of incidents has been coded on the left”, highlighting attacks on Teslas, ice agents and a series of shooting and bombing with political motivation.

Lehman said that the murder of Charlie Kirk was the culmination of this trend – led by a suspect who had previously qualified the 31 -year -old political activist as “fascist”, borrowing the same language often used by eminent democrats to describe the Conservatives.

“At a certain point, if you make these arguments on people, someone, somewhere, will take you seriously enough to use force because you make an argument that seems to justify the use of force,” added Lehman.

The dynamics he described has already held in starts – most dramatically in the two recent assassination attempts on Trump.

Paul Sracic is auxiliary stock market at the Hudson Institute in Washington, DC and former president of the Department of Politics and International Relations at the Youngstown State University. He said that demonizing ice did not make threats disappear.

“The Ministry of Internal Security, using immigration and customs agents – is what ice represents – is responsible for implementing immigration laws adopted by a democratically elected legislature,” said Sracic.

“Labeling the application of democratically promulgated fascist laws, and the agents responsible for the application of these laws are absurd. It is also dangerous.”

Beyond rhetoric, Sracic stressed that the application of lax immigration has its own dangers, from fentanyl terrorism:

“We really need our political leaders, our media figures and our citizens to model a return to disagreement in principle, where policy differences are debated without resorting to the apocalyptic hyperbole.”
