I don't want to criminalize the rhetoric, free speech is free speech. I don't want elected officials speaking like that because they do have a platform that incites, on both sides

---

I want public officials to be pressured to tone down their rhetoric on both sides, but it can't be accomplished through the courts. They need to be shamed into it.

---

Lol!

That only works for normal people.

I agree that Trump can't be shamed into toning down his rhetoric. Unfortunately, that means he had to be voted out of office which could have been accomplished if Democrats hadn't cared more about kneecapping Medicare For All than putting in a president and government whose number one priority was anti-Trump lawfare. Americans punished you for that and rightfully so. Worst president of all time.

Fortunately, the Constitution precludes him from having a third term. Unfortunately that means Democrats will once again run on "We're Not Trump" instead of running on an agenda that would actually address the "cost of living" and "too many ****ing wars" concerns of the American people.

The "we're not Hitler" slogan works for me.

I don't think the two parties have much to do with the Cole Allens of the world even though they both pretend it's everything to do with what the other guys are saying.

This was once again a paranoid disassociated male weaving his own tale and looking to otherwise distinguish an undistinguished life by wreaking havoc and vengeance.

The worst part is the the ongoing attempt to "understand" the motives by deconstructing all his posts on blue sky which are pretty much like the other posters on blue sky except they aren't attacking a state dinner with hand knives and guns.

It's a violent country and many young men are spinning their own fantasies with a lot of ammo to make it real.

It's just proof that propaganda works on the weak minded. Of course, this forum is a prime example of that. The only difference is that hopefully the people on this forum aren't planning their own fruitless violent plans to make the change that they couldn't make at the ballot box because their preferred party/candidates sucked ass.

Cole Allen is probably as educated and smarter than anyone here. The difference is he went down a rabbit hole, but I don't think anyone knows why. Examining his manifesto and tweets only throw kindling on a fake bonfire. There is a mental health problem here probably exacerbated by social media.

Heh. He thinks I have friends that still post on Facebook.

SB isn't your friend?

I've never had any contact with SB except on the BI forums. I don't recall ever exchanging a DM with him. So, I can't really call him a friend.

By the way, you've been posting here every few minutes for the last 3+ hours. Are your students being adequately supervised? Are they having another of their fortnightly weeks off?

She must be teaching a segment on how to win friends and influence people in online chat rooms.

Nah we teach kids to stay out of online chat rooms

Mental health is a great place to start in any of these situations

Cole Allen is young, impressionable, smart, runs really fast, and is an anti-ballroom person.

Third Democrat assassin in little over a year. Labeling the President "Hitler", "fascist", and "we have to give to war" give tye crazies license.

^^ Obama??

Progressive Jimmy Kimmel last Thursday:

MSN: ""Look at Melania, so beautiful," said Kimmel in his fake WHCD address. "Mrs. Trump, you have a glow like an expectant widow."

"The joke, seemingly intended as a simple reference to the 79-year-old president's age, was interpreted by many in the MAGA world as an incitement of violence."

Nah, despite being the biggest advocate of assassination on the board, he's Wiley Coyote to Trump's Roadrunner.

I was almost going to start a separate thread asking why somebody like that would do something like this. It was not a brilliant enough plan to "succeed", so why throw your life away when you're still only 31. The lure of grabbing one's 15 minutes of fame? Maybe his girlfriend recently dumped him? Or maybe he's smart enough to know he doesn't have much future in this economy?

Or maybe the Trump Crime Family paid him a sh*tload of money to stage this...

---

Despite the manifesto, Obama tweeted out that we don't know what the shooter's motivations are. It's a big mystery. He didn't, however, refer to the shooter as the son he never had.
