POLITICAL THREAD

[Catemus]

I was a very young adult when the two Kennedy assassinations took place in the 1960s. The level of political hate then is comparable to today.

The big difference today is social media. More sick people are interacting with each other than could ever have been possible in the 1960s and yet two prominent politicians were assassinated then.

Trump has used social media to stir up an unbelievable amount of vitriol from the far right. It’s not surprising at all that a sick person with a rifle has tried to take him out. We can expect more of this. There are many more sick people waiting for their chances at infamy.

It’s going to be a very hot political summer, one that will go right up to Election Day. Considering the candidates and the unique divide in this country now, it could become continuous. I’m very sad for our country.

It’s Fallujah level graphic.

Yeah, that’s not gonna buff out.

 

[Blue Bigfoot]

God bless President Donald J. Trump......By you lead, sir!
And God bless the family of the attendee who won't be going home tonight.
It makes me sick.

I'm making a point. You "guys" won't answer the question.

Here is a right-wing take on it

Did Ashley Biden Call Childhood Showers with Her Father 'Probably Inappropriate' in Leaked Diary?

"I will forever have to deal with the fact that my personal journal can be viewed online," Ashley Biden wrote to a district court judge.

I’m not familiar with Trump doing that, I meant to reply to another poster, not you

 

[KAB Cats]

Same lady who carries guns who said it a .22 with a silencer?

Some of those sources?

Idiot.

She didn’t say it was a .22. She said she was surprised it wasn’t a .22 because it didn’t sound like a rifle. That’s why she speculated about a silencer,

I would still like to see it for myself. I have ZERO trust in the corporate uniparty media.

You need to figure out who is who. If you have any people like these in your life, get them out.

Fair. Trump didn't. Biden did. Sorry.

So, it's Trump's fault. Yeah, because he's the guy dehumanizing people, trying to lock up his political adversaries, and calling them "hitler," or accusing them of being Russian colluders in order to morally justify anything that happens to them. Yeah, ok.

Correct

 

[the nail at the foul line]

Anyone hear how many yards away shooter was?

 

[HymanKaplan]

How in the world does anyone with a gun get anywhere near any rally? Haven't we seen enough incidents over the years?

People with bad intentions, and no regard for their own safety are almost impossible to stop. Unless you want to live in an absolute police state. The United States enjoys freedoms that no other country in the world does. And that comes with a price. It all boils down to a cost benefit analysis.

DEI hire. This is killing our country at every level. Unqualified people are rising to places of power stricly based on their race or gender.

 

[wildcatadam6]

What about the guy, almost directly behind Trump, that was wearing the raggedy sport coat, and the weird hat. While everything was happening, old dude just stood there, barely reacted, and continued standing, looking confused througout. THAT is a person that was probably on acid.

Noticed him too, and was gonna post. So weird

 

[JumperJack]

^ referring to Adam’s post.

We have some big problems if that is real and it was already leaked.

It’s this GD Internet ,I blame everyDem who lied for politics.

 

[UK_fan_41102]

Anyone hear how many yards away shooter was?

130 yards is what was reported. It's pitiful that an assassin was able to get that close

 

[hmt5000]

Anyone hear how many yards away shooter was?

I heard 150 yards but a guy doing sound analysis is saying it's probably closer.

 

[krazykats]

Anyone hear how many yards away shooter was?

Thought the guy on BBC video said 300 yards, but it may have been a different interview I heard that on.

Just like Uncle Joe hiring the best black woman to join the Supreme Court and not the best Justice regardless or race or gender.

Disagree. The Secret Service employees counter snipers whose sole job is to maintain the security of the perimeter even beyond the venue. Their forward team would’ve/shouldve scouted that building within 150 yards of the stage and taken it into account as part of their forward assessment. Judging by the photos of the shooter on the roof he didn’t appear concealed and should’ve been readily spotted by the Secret Service.

So True. I think you can break the population into three buckets. First bucket is the ones that can see through the corporate propaganda and search for the truth in alternative media, the second group is just ill informed and never watch the news and the third group embrace the propaganda and are radicalized by it.

 

[Dionysus444]

I would hope that people vote based on what the candidates SAY.

There's always hope. But nothing of what I know of our American electorate indicates that to be the case.

 

[DraftCat]

Trump rising up bloodied after being shot with the ability to rally the troops.

Good God that may be one of the most crazy political events in a long a** time.

I can promise you this he won the independent votes tonight and I think he also dampened the Blue support they won't show up to the polls.

200 yards.

Trump was at 60% pre-assassination attempt.

200 yards.

It's pretty unreal that someone can get on a roof that close. It's problematic for whoever was in charge of this shenanigan from the secret service.
