So should TDS (Trumpian Delusion sentiment) be classified as a mental disease? Two, and I'm sure there are likely many more, recent examples of people so invested in Trump that they turned to violence over their belief the election was "stolen"...This guy killed his wife...
This guy dressed up in camo and a "rainbow wig" took a loaded weapon out "hunting Democrats" at Dairy Queen. I'm wondering- did he think the Queen was a hangout for drag queens, and correlate in his mind that everyone there was a "Democrat"? They did find additional weapons in his car, btw...
Is this clown the ringleader, and should he be held responsible?
We had a thread on here condemning Schumer as "inciting violence" towards Kavanaugh for a speech he made TWO YEARS AGO in which he warned various SCOTUS Justices of political consequences if they lied about Roe. Many on here made the correlation (spurred on by right wing media) with the guy who showed up outside of Kav's residence with a loaded weapon TWO YEARS later, and blamed him for "inciting violence"...
Now beyond the fact that similar episodes of threatened violence against Biden/Family preceded the Kav event (with nary a peep from the folks in that thread), and a right wing nut had actually murdered a retired Fed judge and threatened the Governors of both MI and WI in his manifesto (and again crickets) the week BEFORE the threat to Kav, I took the inherent hypocrisy of that thread with a grain of salt.
But several went out of their way to not only condemn Schumer for something he said TWO YEARS ago and WALKED BACK the NEXT DAY, but several were also insistent that Schumer should be charged for "inciting violence". Of course two years basically destroys the imminence requirement for inciting violence, but that didn't matter to some of the more zealous respondents in the thread...
Take bailey for example...
"You are going to get nothing but no's from this board but in the real non fake message board world tons would say yes. Just like the liberal looking to kill kavanaugh it's barely mentioned in the left wing news but if it was a liberal justice it would be nonstop 24/7 news and the we would be told the guy is a righ wing exstremist, etc. Bowlmania and his merry band of leftists would be beating the drum nonstop about it."
Obviously the bolded is false, since the times people were found near Biden or Jill with loaded weapons, and the Judge killed the week before the Kav incident were not even mentioned on this board at the time. I just wonder if the same folks who posted condemning Schumer and even suggested he should be charged are going to step up and condemn the past month or so of speeches and pseudo tweets by Trump, which do nothing but Promote violence?
