The Virginia Democrats are foursquare behind Jay Jones, apparently happy that the person they want to become the Attorney General for all Virginians is a murderous a-hole.
But, proving that they believe murdering people is hardly as heinous as using racial slurs, they are demanding that Winsome Sears (who has zero input on who leads the Young Republicans) call on the YRs to boot the offenders.
Winsome did.

I did.
Your turn now, DPVA. What about Jay Jones? https://t.co/rXoe6Vijh5
Sears HAS called on these particular YRs to resign, as has Jason Miyares--the Republican candidate for Attorney General--but even if they hadn't it brings up the obvious question: if making racial slurs is beyond the pale for Young Republicans, why is wishing for the death of a colleague and for his children to die in their mother's arms NOT disqualifying?
Easy, they absolutely must step down.

Now it’s your turn, Abigail. https://t.co/Fatu6PoJym
The answer is obvious: Democrats wish for the death of Republicans all the time, and as Jay Jones' comments--made to a Republican colleague in all seriousness--prove, they are rather surprised that anybody would object.

Here's a reminder of how vile Jones' comments were:
“If those guys die before me,” Jones wrote, referencing the Republican colleagues who were publicly honoring the deceased Johnson’s memory, “I will go to their funerals to piss on their graves” to “send them out awash in something.”
Jones then suggested that, presented with a hypothetical situation in which he had only two bullets and was faced with the choice of murdering then-Speaker of the House Todd Gilbert or two dictators, he’d shoot Gilbert “every time,” prompting pushback from his former colleague:
Jones: Three people, two bullets
Gilbert, hitler, and pol pot
Gilbert gets two bullets to the head
Spoiler: put Gilbert in the crew with the two worst people you know and he receives both bullets every time
Coyner: Jay
Please stop
Jones: Lol
Ok, ok
Coyner: It really bothers me when you talk about hurting people or wishing death on them
It isn’t ok
No matter who they are
The private messages offer a disturbing glimpse into how Jones — who is looking to oust incumbent Republican Attorney General Jason Miyares this fall — describes his political adversaries in private conversations. The violent rhetoric complicates an already contentious and competitive race roughly a month out from Election Day in Virginia, where early voting began on September 19.
...
Coyner’s alarm at her former colleague’s violent rhetoric toward Gilbert prompted Jones to call her and explain his reasoning over the phone, a source familiar with the exchange told NR.
According to the source, the Democratic former legislator doubled down on the call, saying the only way public policy changes is when policymakers feel pain themselves, like the pain that parents feel when they watch their children die from gun violence. He asked her to provide counterexamples to disprove his claim.
Then at one point, the source said, he suggested he wished Gilbert’s wife could watch her own child die in her arms so that Gilbert might reconsider his political views, prompting Coyner to hang up the phone in disgust.
Afterward, Jones continued his barrage of text messages, saying he was just asking questions. Coyner dismissed his excuse via text and chastised Jones for “hopping [sic] Jennifer Gilbert’s children would die.”
Rather than deny that he had wished death on the children, Jones responded by saying, “Yes, I’ve told you this before. Only when people feel pain personally do they move on policy.”
These comments, Virginia Democrats (and most Democrats around the country), are not disqualifying for somebody running to become the Attorney General for Virginia. Jones has not lost a single endorsement in his run for Attorney General, and Democrats have decided that appearing at rallies in support of Jones is the right thing to do.
This is sick.@RepVindman triples down and will attend the fundraiser of a guy who fantasizes about murdering his Republican colleague and children.

Does Vindman fantasize about murdering Republicans too? Or does he just support lunatics who do?
Instructive for Virginia… https://t.co/EzzgO5xFnF
But racist comments--pretty obviously made as ironic jokes even though they are in horrible taste--ARE disqualifying.
This tells you everything you need to know about how Democrats think. It is, as many have noted, the rise of assassination culture among Democrats.
