Trump Assassination Attempt(s)

[InVOLuntary]

That's what you read into that post? Damn. You seem to need a grievance

You dismissed the idea that people don't need to protect themselves by saying most people don't have bounties on their heads. My point stands, if one of the most guarded people in the world can't depend on the government to protect them, how can the average man? Sounds like you're the one needing a grievance.

She’s been fired. Thompson put out a statement a few minutes ago.

As she should be. Don't GAF what party it is!

Have a link to their statement?

I'll expand on your criteria a little bit but agree in principle with you.

Human Error
Incompetence
Neglience
Willful Neglience
Intentional

Safe to say this goes beyond basic human error. It's not an intentional hit or Trump would be dead right now.

It's one of the other 3....

Could have been intentional and they used an incompetent person?

Is turbo hurting right now not being able to post? It's probably like being in rehabilitation for crack rock.

He might be on vacation, has a family emergency or other family event, laid up in a hospital, or worse.

Not only that, you don't need a bounty on your head. Just sit in a cinema, go to a grocery store, attend a local public event, go to class, or even just be inside your house watching TV.

I got a gun, you got a gun;
Darn nigh everybody got one;
So, it's bang, bang, bang

I've not seen her endorse socialism - can you point out specific examples?

I'm not a Republican and I don't like Trump but if Trump or Biden has to win I'd take Trump with a dose of Gabbard over Biden/Harris

It's not easy to find her going into specific details. She goes into some discussion of Bernie Sanders economic policies in this interview but only in the broadest of terms. Tulsi Gabbard had to resign as Vice Chair of the DNC in order to endorse Bernie Sanders and then campaign for him - which she did aggressively in 2016.

Let's face it ... an endorsement of Bernie Sanders is an endorsement of socialism. That was his platform.

I have ignored this same question more times than I can remember.

- What is the point in wanting to know the caliber?

I have read several people say it was a .223 or a NATO 5.56 AR style weapon. For the life of me, I can’t understand why this is pertinent information as the caliber does not have any bearing on reality.

I bet you don't even own a gun. This video has been shown more times than I can remember. I am merely trying to associate the audio with an actual cartridge. The ar-15 "type" firearm has several calibers. As the owner of many firearms I am simply curious.

I get the feeling she has changed a lot on her stances. It's why she left the party

BB85 is correct for once. Tulsi Gabbard backed Bernie Sanders. Why so many of you self-described libertarians seem to be infatuated with her, I will never understand. She is a disaster.

No.

she's a noted non-interventionist - Bernie was as well vs Hillary who was the opposite. Hillary was an insider, corporate candidate - Bernie was a populist.

between Hillary and Bernie one could go the Bernie route without being a socialist. She seems to be more of a progressive libertarian than socialist

If you back Bernie Sanders, you back Socialism.

 

[Septic]

That's weird.

 

[BowlBrother85]

I don't see how that is possible at all.

Bernie Sanders is a self-described "democratic socialist." That was the primary platform from which he ran for President in 2016. He spent most of his campaign discussing fiscal policy. You can't separate support for Bernie Sanders from support for socialism.

all candidates are compromises - she certainly speaks against foreign intervention (libertarian consistent) and government restriction of individual freedoms (see Covid response and speech issues) and for judicial reform including decriminilzation of many drugs). All these are consistent with libertarian positions.

on the counter, she seems to support single payer healthcare systems (not a libertarian consistent position) and some worker protections at the Federal level (not a libertarian consistent position).

Willful Indifference?

I kinda lump that into willful neglience...

 

[BowlBrother85]

Exactly. You can't separate Sanders from socialism.

 

[WoodsmanVol]

PR stunt. Trumpie is milking this for every drop of sympathy, and image advantage he can get. Typical politics.

you can't separate Hillary from foreign intervention and big money interests driving policy. I guess she could have punted on picking one but given her foreign policy views Bernie was a much, much better fit

 

[KptVFL]

Trump campaign? Looks to be a private person who set it up.

Go to it and look at the top donations.

Don't know who set it up..... but

Can't separate Trumpon from Saudi Arabia money either.

what do you think the purpose of Biden's Oval Office talk tonight is?
