US Vice President JD Vance strongly criticized political views that he says defend or excuse violence against innocent people. Speaking to an enthusiastic crowd, Vance called on Americans to stand with victims and reject anyone who tries to justify attacks against civilians or schoolchildren. Vance also referred to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, saying Americans should reject people who claim those attacks were justified or defensible. He praised the heroes of 9/11 and said their actions should not be questioned or attacked. The vice president then turned his attention to the upcoming November elections. He told supporters that they have an opportunity to make their voices heard through their votes. Vance argued that Americans should reject what he described as hatred and extremist ideas that are becoming more common in the country. Vance specifically urged voters to reject Abdul El-Sayed and support Mike Rogers for the US Senate. His statement received a strong response from the crowd, with supporters cheering and standing during his remarks. The speech reflects the Republican campaign's focus on national security, terrorism and political extremism. Vance's message was aimed at motivating conservative voters ahead of the November election and presenting the race as an important choice between different approaches to national security and American values. The remarks are part of a broader political debate in the United States, where candidates and political leaders are increasingly discussing terrorism, extremism, immigration and national security as major election issues.
