I don't worry that Trump supporters will somehow overthrow the government, I'm worried about innocent people (and also cops) getting hurt or killed in random attacks started by Trump's complete carelessness and cowardice. Like 4chan has plenty of dudes with no jobs, families, or future prospects, who are incredibly mad about trump, and there have been at least a few school shooters who used 4chan frequently. A guy who goes 'the election is rigged!!' is feeding the kind of attitude that leads to mass shootings way more than a guy who respectfully steps aside and promises to keep pushing his policies even if he isn't president. Like, I'm not worried about some mass uprising, I'm worried that there'll be a small but noticeable uptick in the number of mass shootings.

Fine. she also wasn't president when doma was signed into law i was referring to you repeating the long-debunked line that bill clinton refused to veto doma because it was a tactical decision to stave off a worse result i.e. a constitutional amendment banning gay marriage

Mass shootings in the U.S. haven't been particularly motivated by politics. The trend has been upward for years, because violence is culturally-informed: once the idea to go out and shoot a bunch of strangers in a public space exists, people will do it. It's going to keep happening because it has happened. Same reason why you see suicide bombings in the Middle East, but not the U.S. We do suicide shootings instead.

Mass shootings are definitely political in nature, as is any act meant to target such a large and random group of people.

ParliamentOfDogs posted:I'm trying to think what a Demo Trump would look like. Like a failed crooked Mega Church pastor running as a Democrat on a platform of mandatory homosexuality despite making massive amounts of money in his church calling gay people abominable. Constantly complimentary of women but only if they had a 9 month abortion. alvin greene is probably the closest analogue which says a lot more about the state of the republican party

FactsAreUseless posted:My point is that, for the most part, the shooters weren't doing it in response to specific political events or incidents or even laws, other than the Gabby Giffords shooting. Obviously when people feel so powerless and desperate for attention that they are willing to go kill a bunch of people there is a political component to that, but we haven't seen them get worse as a result of politics, local or national, we've seen them get worse as a result of other shootings happening. Seriously crazy people with access to guns will use any excuse to execute their demented delusions. It doesn't help one bit being fearful of the rascal rebellion nor does it help that the media slobbers all over the still-warm corpses of murder victims. Best thing we, as regular folk, can do is just report disturbing things to the authorities. See a crazy 4chan post alluding to violence? Report! Fb friend posting cryptic poo poo? Report! poo poo, some homeless dudes found a backpack bomb and saved a lot of people.

shrike82 posted:Having a couple Trump inspired mass shootings by white nuts won't be a bad thing for Hillary or Democrats. Even better if it's white on black Do you really think that would help matters? Every time we have some right wing fanatics kill people in this country, they are always treated as some lone wolf maniac by the media and the especially by the Republicans so that no large scale response will occur. The CIA actually warned about the rise of right wing extremists years ago, but Republicans threw a hissy fit about daring to suggest white people could be terrorists. All that we'd get from such attacks is a lot of dead people with the media and public being asked to do their best to ignore any link between attacks thanks to some halfhearted excuses from the GOP to deny any responsibility. Even if it somehow managed to stick this time, it'd be blamed entirely on Trump and not the many years of conservatives encouraging denial of reality, bigotry, and ideological purity at all costs in their base. A country that looks at regular school shootings and refuses to pass even the weakest gun control laws is not at all ready to deal with what Trump will try to incite.

Avshalom is incredible Avshalom posted:it is the year 2018 and trump spreads like a cancerous reef from the southernmost point of chile to the coast of greenland, where his grasping extremities are kept at bay by brave warriors with shotguns. they never leave the shore unguarded lest a prawn-coloured hand crawl up from the melted glacial depths and dig its yellowing nails into their territory. trump's mouth has opened near hawa'ii, birthplace of the man whose flesh was the first to be digested and absorbed into trump's biomass. the seawater and chunks of the nearby island spiral into it. it bellows without pause. trump's dick lies slumped like an anaemic beached humpback on the sands of miami, where his troops herd parades of half-nude eye candy back and forth, back and forth, back and forth in front of its silent unfathomable eye. his rear end in a top hat is in the gulf of mexico. no birds will risk the sky over that water anymore. Avshalom posted:hillary floats in orbit, gathering her lethal shell of cosmic shrapnel around her through the sheer force of her rhetoric, steeling her will for the fateful moment where she and the meteors crash down on trump's empire and dust returns to dust. she is ready. her eyes have never been sharper, her hair has never been harder. she is the one. she is chosen

Joe Scarborough is so bizarrely dishonest and snippy. Does he even get ratings? It feels like he's a remnant of MSNBC's experiment with wingnuttery (they hired Michal freaking Savage at one point trying to be Fox II) that people forgot to clean up because he doesn't start shouting about black helicopters. Now Kellyanne, I get. It's her job to spin anything to Trump's benefit. He could light himself of fire on the debate stage and she'd say it shows his resolve and fortitude, that he was emulating buddhist protesters and famous superhero Human Torch, and why are you prejudiced against pyro-americans?
