On Wednesday it brought bad news that bomb-like devices had been sent to Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and Eric Holder, which followed the discovery on Monday of a bomb in the mailbox in Westchester County, NY, home of George Soros, the multimillionaire financier Liberal political causes. Apparent explosive devices were also discovered Wednesday at the CNN office in New York, as well as at a district office of Florida Democrat Debbie Wasserman Schultz.
The reasons for the sender are not known, although the devices suggest a pattern that could relate them. The urgent cargo is now in the FBI, the Secret Service and the Postal Service of the United States to find the culprit.
Let's hope the FBI does a better job than in 2001, when letters full of anthrax killed several Americans. The FBI spent years harassing an innocent man before deciding on a federal investigator who committed suicide in 2008 after learning that he would be charged. Especially so close to an election, the public should rule out unconfirmed leaks about suspects or motives.
Near an election there are also attempts to blame the devices of intemperate political rhetoric, especially Donald Trump. We doubt this, and we doubt it in the same way that we never believed that the attack on Steve Scalise and other Republicans, since they were playing baseball in Virginia in 2017 was the fault of Bernie Sanders, although the man guilty of the attack was a volunteer Bernie.
On Wednesday, Mr. Trump condemned the act of sending the devices and said that "in these times, we have to unify. We have to unite and send a clear, strong and unequivocal message that acts or threats of political violence of any kind do not take place in the United States of America. "
That was not good enough for Democratic leaders Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi, who issued a joint statement in which they said Trump's words "sounded empty until he reverses his statements condoning acts of violence." .
Obama offered a better message in Tucson in 2011 when he paid tribute to the dead for the madman who also wounded Representative Gabby Giffords. Mr. Obama said that the lack of civility in politics was not the culprit, and warned against the political impulse to "blame everything that afflicts the world at the feet of those who think differently from what we think. "
If we want the United States to be less vulnerable to violence, we should look beyond political rhetoric and insist on demanding a higher price from those who choose violence. Those who burn universities because they do not like the speaker, the white supremacists who seek and fight, or the masked demonstrators who break the windows, all deserve the full approval of the law. The priority now is to find the person responsible, and then make sure that the offender spends a lot of time in prison.
