Yes, but instead of blaming the billionaires that influence and benefit the most from our political system, both sides blame each other.
It’s no coincidence that the billionaires own the social media platforms that stoke and amplify the vitriol. Wake up, people.

Charlie wasn’t a candidate for public office.
Charlie wasn’t a corporate executive, supposedly personally “responsible” for any negative effects of corporate policies.
Charlie wasn’t a foreign diplomat or staff to whom blame for that foreign nation’s policies could be ascribed.
No, Charlie was an advocate for his faith and his political beliefs, as well as for open and cordial debate about both. This was a political assassination at its most basic core - not because someone was angry about a policy that Charlie had enacted, or that he was currently facilitating, or that he might in the future implement - but rather for no other reason than the public expression of his ideas. He was shot because of his discussions about his beliefs and for no other reason; and that should be a wake up call for all of us, right and left.
This will not end well.
