OUR BORDERS MUST BE CLOSED, AND THE TERRORISTS, CRIMINALS, AND MENTALLY INSANE, IMMEDIATELY REMOVED FROM AMERICAN CITIES AND TOWNS, DEPORTED BACK TO THEIR COUNTIES OF ORIGIN. WE WANT PEOPLE TO COME INTO OUR COUNTRY, BUT THEY MUST LOVE OUR NATION, AND COME IN LEGALLY AND THROUGH A SYSTEM OF MERIT.
the first thought to cross my mind was that Trump set the whole thing up so the media focus is on him and only him.
That's why no one who's been paying attention cares. A peaceful person (MLK, JFK) getting shot is reprehensible. A violent lying bully getting shot at is, while not right, not surprising, really.
"You kept poking your fork into the light socket and then got shocked? Well..."
That's all I got for now. Too many deaf ears and crocodile tears here so no need to add any further thoughts.
Jan 6, 2021... âI donât fucking care that they have weapons. Theyâre not here to hurt me,â.
Nobody should be shot for their political beliefs, especially while running for office... but it's not secret where the violent talk originated and continues to come from.
He won't even condemn bomb threats for the lies he told about legal immigrants during the debate.
You seem to have a ton of common sense on defense... while being deaf and mute to the constant aggression from your patron saint. If you're not sure, Google some of these:
This post, and many of the responses to it, is pretty much my attitude to the situation. It doesn't matter if the intended victim was Trump, Harris, Obama or a Clinton - I would have the same stance. The fact that some people believe resolving political disagreements by assassination of an opponent is okay-fine, and are even disappointed at any failed attempts, is beyond sad. We have some of those very fine people here. Serious people will recognize the problem and start working to undo the damage to our discourse.

This would be so oh-so-touching and heartbreaking if it were a tad less deluded and cynical.
Trump and his supporters have repeatedly whipped up resentment, anger and demonization of opponents. Trump doesn't oppose Harris and Biden on points of policy, he calls them crooked, Marxist, enemies of the people, etc. Trump keeps claiming that the Democrats will destroy this country and economy and that he must be granted powers like a dictator to "save" America.
We didn't have that much political violence until Trump came along. Granted, it wasn't all his fault but he's done an extraordinary amount to encourage it. And you, with your wallowing in the sensational and idiotic, just play up and add to the ceaseless stream of disorienting BS and hate.
Frankly, if Trump's would-be assassins (both Republican, how 'bout that) weren't such f&k-ups and aimed for Harris instead (the more logical target for their twisted thinking), I don't think you'd be crying "O tempora! O mores!" quite so loudly.
So do us all a favor and stop adding fuel to this burning trash pile of a man.
