A bucketful of nonsense. Heal up.
Somebody did try to kill him.
Anything relevant to that is up for discussion.
I would argue it's never OK to try to kill anyone, can I assume you feel the same way or are political opponents fair game?
We all know Trump is a devisive figure, all his misdeeds have been discussed at length on boards yet they form a large amount of what's getting discussed here.
🤣
A new account for the occasion ……
"The great thing is when Trump is elected because of those those are the groups whos power is going to be ripped away from them, and rightly so."
What are you on about.
Would you share your last post with friends and family? Both of us know the answer to that and what it says about your 'opinions'.
Yeah this quest to establish this guy's 'political motivations' strikes me as a bit of a wild goose chase. I'm pretty sure we haven't lost the next John Stuart Mill here…
He was a conservative that loves guns.... That's not exactly the embodiment of the left. 🤣
I would argue it's never OK to try to kill anyone
Ah no, some people need to be killed, like this shooter for instance.
Was there another option to incapacitate? I doubt it.
Not the embodiment of the left, but being pro-gun is not just for the right. Plenty of Democrats want their guns but want greater controls and for certain types to not be sold.
Anyone attempting to shoot a politician in America knows what to expect.
I'd prefer if loonies weren't trying assassinate people but the result of attempting that is well known and a pretty obvious deterrent for any would be Oswalds.
I'd be much happier if that young man had never picked up a gun and was still alive and these type of incidents never happened.
One of the guns Democrats want greater controls over and not to be sold includes… the weapon used in the attack.
The preponderance of evidence here points to the shooter being a conservative.
Yes, I'm not talking about the shooter. Just the idea that guns are purely right-wing.
@Overheal Genuine question, do you have one? I'm not aware of who else here is American. That's not a pointed question or a gotcha, just curious. My brother in the US has one I think but is very left-wing.
If you don't like the website then nobody is forcing you to post here…?
The "Yanks" obviously love to elect their criminals then.
What I don't understand is why Donald keeps referring to Biden as "corrupt" and "a criminal and a liar", if it's seen as a must have for the presidency?
He might as well write open fan mail :-)
Such a shame the Mayflower didn't have woodworm, it would have cleaned American politics up no end!
One of the nice things about UK politics is that being caught lying would have finished an MP's career.
Sadly it is going the same way as the US and the country is not benefiting one iota from it.
Oh no democrats and their media pals never mentioned violence towards Trump
So Trump was shot because of comments on a failing outdated Irish message board?!
You seem to have added hashtags to your other post too in some belief that there are trends on Boards like on Twitter.
People hate criminals, rapists, liars and those that stir up hate and derision against the weak or those they oppose.
Trump just happens to have all those qualities.
Some people are just born lucky :-)
So it is okay to kill people who are a danger to others?
I do think there's a weird level of desperation to blame this on the Democrats, this guy sounds far more like he would have been influenced by right wing and conservative outlets.
You aren't banned for alternative opinions on here though. That's just an out and out lie.
Case in point, you are currently posting on here without being banned aren't you?
Yes, prefer not to disclose what or how many.
Hardly desperation. Everyone would have expected it to be a loony on the left when it happened. The conflicting information afterwards furthered that.
It's pretty standard when someone is assassinated, they're going to be from the opposing side. Him being 20 means he was 12 in 2016 so it makes no rational sense that he was a fan of the republican party as it is today, which is completely formed under Trump.
Quick question could you if you wanted sign up to the Republican or democrat party in your area if you wanted? I take it you just need ID?
Ironically, the shooter was likely far less of a threat to world peace than the man he was shooting at. So if we're too argue he needed to be killed, by extension, so too does Trump.
