ProMinnesota House speaker, her husband shot and killed in 'assassination'

Wangari MaathaiMaybe. Maybe not. They are saying suspect was appointed by Tim Walz. They also found anti-trump signs in car. Could be just to throw people off the scent, or maybe just a personal thing thing against people. We don’t know. Regardless of what size shooter is on, it’s not good for any political parties, but it’s just gonna cause more dissent and division.
I remember when Trump got shot at people here we celebrating and saying things like “Oh wish he had better aim.” Now it’s happened to Democrats and people here are saying how terrible it is.
Shooting political people is never a good thing, regardless of what party they are in. Lemmy needs to stop celebrating shootings when it happens to people they don’t like. Because stuff is also happening to people they do like. Violence is never the answer and always just ends up badly.
Just to refresh memories, the assassination attempts on Trump were done by people with right wing backgrounds.
I just got back from a peaceful “No Kings” protest in Illinois, and aright wing chud waving a Trump flag swerved his oversized SUV right onto the shoulder in front of some protesters. This is not a both sides problem.
I never said it was a both sides problem. I said that violence isn’t the solution, and that republicans are hoping for a violent uprising. Because they outnumber you and are trained better than you. Even if all the armchair warriors and Lemmy joined together, still wouldn’t have the numbers.
Think about it: If people couldn’t even be bothered enough to do something easy like rise up and vote, you think they are suddenly gonna join in on a violent mob uprising against the government?
This violence is the answer mindset is exactly what this shooter had. You happy with that outcome?
I never said it was a both sides problem
I can do that to. I never said that you said it was a both sides problem. You just presented it that way and made no effort to avoid that interpretation.
republicans are hoping for a violent uprising. Because they outnumber you and are trained better than you.
They outnumber me personally? Sure, I’m just one guy. Outnumber the left? LOL, not a chance. Better trained? I kinda doubt it. They might be better at some things, but those chuds can’t plan their way out of a wet paper bag.
If people couldn’t even be bothered enough to do something easy like rise up and vote
Gosh, I wonder why that is. Just imagine what would be coming from the right of it were two Republican Senators. Whatever you are imagining, I’m pretty sure you know it would be passionate. Meanwhile Democrats are giving the same old bloodless speeches that sound like they were worked on by a dozen consultants before being handed to a talking head with instructions to “add pause and a couple of tears here”. Then they hand it off to a newscaster who laments about how “polarized” politics has become. Democrats have no passion, and that is why they lose.
“Now, I know they are killing us now, but we really should stop to consider if leftists might be a little violent too”. Yep, that’s exactly why Democrats consistently fail to inspire anyone.
you think they are suddenly gonna join in on a violent mob uprising against the government?
Um, no? Why on earth would you assume I think that?
This violence is the answer mindset is exactly what this shooter had.
Oh, you’ve met him? When did I say violence is the answer?
