A new poll suggests that one-fifth of the country believes that violence may be necessary to get America back on its feet.
The poll, conducted by NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist from March 25th-28th, revealed that 20% of Americans were open to the idea of utilizing violence to achieve political goals, although 79% rejected it. Of the 20% who agreed, 6% agreed “strongly.”
Results were split up between different categories among racial, political, age, and income lines.
Moreover, analysis of survey data regarding respondents’ political affiliations showed that Democrats were more inclined to agree—7% compared to 5% among Republicans—that violence might be necessary for national reconstruction. Independents, on the other hand, were more inclined to agree with the potential use of violence, with an overall percentage of 18%. However, as reported by the Washington Examiner, a significantly larger proportion of Democrats, 65%, strongly disagreed with the use of violence, whereas only 30% of Republicans held the same view.
When considering race, Black and Latino participants showed higher rates of agreement or strong agreement with the use of violence, at 25% and 27%, respectively, compared to White survey respondents, who accounted for 17% of those who agreed or strongly agreed. These percentages varied across different age brackets. Among the 18-29 age group, 42% expressed agreement or strong agreement with the idea that violence might be necessary to restore the country. Conversely, 21% strongly disagreed with this notion. In the 60 or older age group, as well as the 45-59 age group, 16% and 13%, respectively, agreed or strongly agreed with the idea.
NEW: The attitude expressed by 1 in 5 U.S. adults in the latest PBS NewsHour/NPR/Marist poll puts the nation in “an incredibly dangerous place” in the months before the 2024 presidential election, according to a law professor and former U.S. attorney. https://t.co/sXLsGalRPh
