Fox News’ Eric Bolling said that today’s horrific shooting at the GOP baseball team’s practice shows that words do matter.

He reviewed everything we know about the shooter––he was a Bernie Sanders supporter who hated Republicans––and said that while politics has always been a blood sport, there’s been a “sea change” in how liberals talk about political opponents.

He pointed to examples like Democrats saying the GOP health care bill would kill people, as well as Snoop Dogg‘s music video featuring a Trump stand-in being shot and Kathy Griffin‘s recent photoshoot.

“How many innocent people have to die before we realize that words do matter?” Bolling asked. “Crazy people act on the crazy things they hear from politicians and celebrities. Think before you utter those blind, hateful words next time, liberals, because there are crazy people out there taking your metaphors literally.”
