Anyone who kills Donald Trump would be an American hero. Don’t remove this, I want to see how long it takes for the feds to knock on my door.
XanthraxAnyone who kills Donald Trump would be an American hero.
Fuck yeah, FBI party!!!
DeconceptualistI disagree.
There’s probably a better argument that either:
Political assassinations (as a subset of misnamed ‘vigilante justice’) are never good and we shouldn’t reinforce that precedent, or
That person would be a hero to the planet and the future, not just present day America.
They won’t because this is a fact.
otterNot nearly as edgy as that beard smear ^smeard? they’re sportin’ there. 🥲
I’m not sure “Trump is a martyr” leads to the timeline you think it does.
… what?
Velvet Elvis? Cool. Velvet Cheeto? Not cool.
Sorry, I’m lost
Elvis was Jesus-ified after death and tacky, roadside velvet Elvis art could be purchased and displayed to show your devotion to the King. Love of a musical icon is one thing. But, martyred fascists are not kitsch or cool. Either one will let you know what kind of a home you stepped into. Both would be in bad taste but one is so bad it’s good and the other is so bad, it’s baaaad. And not Michael Jackson bad.
Ahhh. Got it
Wait, so Che Guevara tee shirts aren’t woke? Well, fuck.
chakan2It does…without his cult of personality I think the magats fizzle out and slink back into the dark corners of society
Maybe they find a new Messiah in Elon, but I don’t think he has the lack of intelligence to lie like Trump does.
Musk is at least ineligible to run for president
Tell me how martyrdom worked out for Mussolini
I mean these assassination attempts barely stick around the news cycle longer than other shootings and my guess is people are tired enough of him not to care. Hate crime incidence spiked when he won in 2016, theres no version of this election that doesn’t lead to violence. May as well excise the cancer entirely.
Trump is going to be a martyr no matter how he dies.
I mean, look how they deified Elvis.
Fuck that. I just want our law to apply equally so he would be in prison, like any of us would for the same crime.
The latest move of delaying the sentencing to 2 weeks after election is appealing. He announced he is running AFTER DOJ started investigating him and now judge is afraid to sentence it because GOP picked him despite being a convicted felon?
What’s worst is that if he wins the sentence likely will be a slap in the wrist, because they won’t want him for example using military to avoid jail. If he loses the election, then he will immediately appeal, and likely judge will allow him to remain free during appeal process.
We have two tier justice system.
Alas, we don’t live in that world.
I think he should be tried for treason. And if convicted suffer the full punishment for that. He is a clear and present threat to democracy. No one should be able to invite an insurrection and have it not be taken as seriously as it was.
My bet is that they don’t care, since that’s clearly an opinion with no intent. Everyone has already been saying basically that when discussing the assassination attempt. Try adding one of the follow-ups:
Follow-up posts added: ‘The point of the second amendment is to shoot and kill tyrannous politicians’ and ‘encouraging politicians to be shot is legal under the first amendment. It’s part of what makes this country great.’
Those are even closer to the line (maybe even crossing it) than the initial tweet. This guy was still not arrested for any of it. The agents just feel mandated to act on tips or something.
Awww. There goes my trip to a black site :(
Anyone who kills Donald Trump would be an enemy of the people, just like the other scum that fight to keep him from facing consequences for his crimes.
Enemy of the state, not of the people. ;)
Did someone hear something coming from the anonymous abyss? Real name and address and I bet you get your wish.
I’d get more attention from people here than the FBI lol
True, lol.
ℕ𝕠𝕓𝕠𝕕𝕪 𝕆𝕗𝕗𝕚𝕔𝕚𝕒𝕝fart around and found out
“The FBI visited my house today for free speech acts they knew were not crimes.”
Uh, calling for violence is NOT protected under the first amendment, so you can fuck right off with that.
In Terminiello v. Chicago (1949), the Supreme Court narrowed the scope of what constitutes fighting words. The Court found that words which produce a clear and present danger are unprotected (and are considering fighting words), but words which invite dispute and even cause unrest are protected (and are not considered fighting words).
sure. not saying it’s an open and shut conviction, but certainly worth a warning from law enforcement.
I mean if Trump’s speech for Jan 6 didn’t count…
Trump was actually arrested for that though.
Although it was for more than just the speech.
Nor should he be. What he said was most likely “protected” speech.
but very close to not being protected, hence the warning.
UnderpantsWeevilthis guy is not even being charged with anything
He feels threatened, though. That violates his NAP.
If these were black kids playing across the street rather than armed FBI agents pounding on his door, he likely would have tried to gun them down already.
Republicans can’t read.
They certainly won’t, in any case. Just look at how they talk about the Constitution, history, religion…
For people who seem to consistently break the law, you’d think they would want to know what their rights actually are.
Only speech.
ripcordWrite is not speech!
But money is
emiellrI wouldn’t call that speech. That implies some thought went behind it. More like yapping and blabbering.
Wait. This means that art with lewd, obscene, or profane content is not protected?
dual_sport_dork 🐧🗡️And exactly what is “lewd, obscene, or profane” is not actually defined in the law.
Surely that’s never been abused in the past. No, sir.
How many visits does Musky get every week?
Considering the fucker made a similar statement and is yet to see consequences, not enough.
He is currently under investigation for his recent statements
DAMN! what a bad ass!! /s
SLVRDRGNOh man he’s important.
AllNewTypeFace“Hey Elon, you might want to tone it down a little. Just sayin’”
CileTheSane“Why? Did they visit a billionaire?”
I don’t like this guy, but unless the FBI shows up with a search warrant or an arrest warrant, the FBI can piss right off.
Nah. If you post rhetoric online that might get someone killed, you get visited by the top brass. Clearly he doesn’t have to talk or let them in, but their visit lead to his posts being removed and now he knows he’s being watched and has been warned. If he posts something again like that, they may just get that warrant but now they may not need to.
It seems like a case of the government intimidating and harassing a guy (who is awful, no doubt) who seems to have done nothing illegal, based on the fact that he has not been arrested or charged with any crime.
Are we really okay with this?
