Descripton:

"When you combine things like, for example, hate speech with insurrectionism -– the belief that as an individual you have a right to use force of arms to engage in political violence if you feel repressed, it's a really lethal cocktail out there right now."

– Ladd Everitt, director of communications with the Coalition to Stop Gun Violence, commenting on the almost daily occurrence of mass shooting incidents across the U.S.
