When Wallace was shot, one of his first well wishers was African-American Congresswoman Shirley Chisholm, if she can do that for Wallace, I can wish Scalise well. I mean this sincerely. Let’s really work to reduce gun violence. We owe it our country.

I think it can be hard for some people to understand just how bright the line is between hating everything someone stands for, even hating them for what they have done and will do on the one hand, and wishing them harm on the other.

I don’t want any Republicans to suffer anything beyond ignominious political defeat. I don’t really grasp the violence some folks bring to their political wrangling. I mean, here we are, the Democrats, shut out of power in the House, the Senate, and the White House, and barring illegal repressive actions on their part, I don’t entertain thoughts of violent reprisal.
