    So we now have not only bullshit phoney made up charges and verdicts brought against a presidential candidate and his associates, but assassination attempts! What's next, WWIII and suspension of elections? How about a "super killer virus" and a two year lock down!!?!?!?

    Yes, he has, and I agree with him. Your man said that termination of your own hallowed and revered Constitution (the thing you swear oaths to, and will die to defend) was warranted.

    Is that NOT a threat to your 'democracy?'

    Does anyone else find it kind of odd that this guy was able to be on a rooftop about 130 yards away and it had not been secured?

    Did we learn nothing from the JFK assassination?

    Absolutely. Most of the day, it has been known that the range was about 400 feet.

    Security was appallingly lax.

    It doesn't surprise me one bit. Its the result of the Democrats nurturing terrorists, labelling them as acitivists. We have seen that in the BLM riots, when democrats stand shoulder to shoulder with them, when Biden felt sorry that someone like Rittenhouse didnt get the death penalty in a clear case of self-defense, we have seen some of the academic heads of these movements fabulating about a context to judge whether a genocide on Jews are good or bad, their activists violently attacking Jews in the streets by this wild coalition of Islamists and woke terrorists. And dont make a mistake this has nothing to do with Israel, the Jews are just a dry run for the next group they target.

    Trump was the only one with the guts to call out this scum for what it is, home grown terrorists that should not be leading Ivy League Universities but in best case a convict colony in chains. It makes sense for these people who are dreaming of a genocide in the right context to murder Trump. The trial doesnt surprise me in the slightest, I hope this will make more Americans more aware which threat they are facing on the left. Trump knew what he said in his first debate 2020 about the Proud Boys. No green light yet, but stand by. I hope more Americans realize that its time to stand by.

    He was a registered Republican....but somehow this is the fault of Democrats.

    Why am I not surprised.

    Then that is an abject failure on the part of his own personally selected security personnel.

    and what are you going to say if the evidence proves that this young 20-year old now dead shooter did not shoot in the name of the "left"?
    What if he was a former MAGA freak who became disappointed in Trump? What will you say then?

    Y'all are jumping the gun far too fast here.

    And I could not give a frack. I would laugh at those types just as much, to be honest. As is all too obvious in this thread, political animals will always twist everything that happens into cries to advance their own beliefs. And to be honest, I see all of them as mentally deficient.

    There is a damned good reason why I have been here for over 15 years, have over 12,000 posts, and most in this thread have likely never seen a post of mine before. I am a "militant moderate", and have absolutely no use for politics or the political animals that often infest places like this. I almost exclusively participate only in the science, history, and military areas in here because there we tend to more often discuss actual "facts", and not sward fight with our phallic members to see who is bigger.

    This is one of the rare times I have "dipped my toe" into the political areas, because this was a rather major event. And I was not surprised when I saw it was full of partisan bickering, attacks, and insults almost entirely based on the beliefs and opinions of those making them which had no basis in reality on those they were attacking. And rather quickly I will likely completely depart this political shark tank and not return for another decade or so.

    But it is fascinating, as I have learned a hell of a lot in here about some of the people I have been interacting with in the science, military, and history area. And that they are not only bullheaded nuts in there, but apparently in almost everything else. I admit, I was slightly surprised to see somebody I have frequently butted heads with in the science area who often screams "conspiracy" and "corporate greed" is also an almost braindead screamer at Conservatives in here as well.

    I have no real use for the far-left or the far-right. I see both of them as equally destructive and want to see both of them go away. And as always, I love how in here I have been accused of being both on the "Far-right" as well as the "Far-left". Which as I have always said, is always more accurate and telling on those who make those accusations than it is on me.

    But I have lived in California for many years, and saw those kinds of political games first hand many times over the years. Where once the primary was over, all the Republicans were looking at each other, wondering who in the hell that was that won the primary. That is especially clear when many times, when there were people who voted "Republican" in the primaries than voted that way in the general election. And I am sure the opposite happens on occasion as well. But I lived in California so saw that first hand.

    And if anybody doubts that, I actually posted in here over 11 years ago what I jokingly called a "Manifesto", where I outright said I could not care less about politics. And I still laugh to this day about the number of attacks I got for stating I was not political. If anything, I am even more "Militant Moderate" than I was in 2013 when I wrote that.

    Dude, you are really playing 4D chess. Wow! When an assassin infiltrated an organzination he for sure is convinced of them. Impressive!

    Strange that from what I read in the newspapers he spent money for a so called progressive organization in 2021. That must have been a misunderstanding, because he is Republican. Lol!

    He was 17 in 2021. He was wearning merch fro ma pro-gun/pro 2A youtube channel. Maybe he changed his mind in the past 3 years.

    But thanks for the expected denial. The GOP supporting sheeple will all be baaaing the same tune within hours.

    Wow, "Grunt Style" is a "pro2a youtube channel"? I thought it was a successful company formed by an Army veteran that primarily sells clothing.

    He was also wearing MAGA gear, does that sound like something somebody would believe in if they were going to shoot the person they apparently supported?

    Or is the shirt, just as the hat part of the camouflage he used to blend in to the crowd?

    But first of all, you should actually learn what you are talking about. "Grunt Style" is if anything a "Pro-Military" company. Formed by Veterans, and well respected in the veteran community. And it is not some "youtube channel", no matter what you are trying to claim.

    Nah, dont get confused here. Your trick was here to use his Republican ties to suggest he must have been a convinced Republican. Your next excuse doesnt fit well into the scheme, because if he could have changed his mind, of what use is your "but he was Republican" excuse worth in the first place.

    Try to cope harder here.

    I didn't claim he was a 'convinced Republican', I just pointed out that him being a Republican is at odds with your 'leftists dunnit' narrative....which it is.

    Not my fault you started out with a false assertion & now can't admit it.

    Demolition Ranch is a pro 2A gun channel. That is the t-shirt he has been photographed wearing - the logo is quite distinctive.

    Your first contribution on this topic was to imply he was faking his registration as a Republican to infiltrate the party. Any credibility you had with sane & sensible people went up in flames with that post. I'll leave you to your ranting.

    But hey, "he was Republican" ...

    ... and Mohammed Atta was no terrorist, he registered as a passenger for the flight and bought a ticket.

    Oklahoma City comes to mind. There are others, albeit a minority of urban areas.
