Trump’s America - Page 101 - Politics and Economics

Just taking their cues of violence from their favored politicians. How long until the Trumpkins realize white terrorism against journalists won't be punished?

Might as well let all the whites out of prison now and save time.

Has there been a case of a civilized society successfully putting down a fascist uprising? If so, what should we be doing to help?

Isn't the 'civility' the exact thing that gets exploited?

The racist murderer from Portland was prominently at some of the Trumpkin "free speech" rallies. He was also a radicalized Christian both in his name and rhetoric.

Ahh, the catch 22 that Donald Trump put to us.

We have a knife in a gun fight. Kind of hard to win unless we're willing to break rules (and laws and ethics) to beat them. But once we break rules to win a battle, we lose the war.

Grrrr...

I was referring to the rules the Trump admin is breaking to create the environment we're living in now. We are having a hard time fighting them by coloring within the lines. Then again, we can't color outside the lines.

Trumpers have taken on some of Trump's worst characteristics.

Though I suppose some already had them and were looking for a guy like him to confirm everything they thought but few said in public.

Well we're undergoing information warfare, so working hard to point out truth from fiction surely can't be a bad thing.

Sgt. Travis Lenz said that just before 8:15 p.m. Saturday Clearlake Police officers were dispatched to the Beachfront Apartments on Lakeshore Drive for a report of a male victim who had been stabbed with a machete.

Upon their arrival, officers discovered one black male victim who told them that a white male adult – later identified as Hammond – had been yelling racial slurs at numerous people located in the parking lot of the apartment complex, Lenz said.

Lenz said Hammond returned to his apartment, and then exited while holding a large machete. As he continued yelling racial slurs at the victim, Hammond struck the victim on the shoulder with the machete, causing serious bodily injury.

After the attack, Hammond retreated into his apartment, Lenz said.

...

After residents were evacuated, officers approached and were able to view through a window one male adult asleep on the couch, and Hammond attempting to conceal himself inside his refrigerator, Lenz said.

“There was a threat made from Representative Rinaldi to put a bullet in one of my colleagues’ heads,” state Rep. Justin Rodriguez said during the news conference. “That kind of threatening language, he needs to be called out and held accountable for.”

Guy's got to have mental issues. That or the whole free speech thing has become do much of a right wing nut job thing, off on its own little world that it's like a foreign language to me.

I'm thinking the guy's commitment to classic liberalism is a bit thin. Wouldn't count of his Bernie enforcement on being to deeply held either.

In the squad car, audio and video recorders caught Christian's description of his interaction with one alleged victim.

"I told him, 'You ain't gonna heal punk,'" Christian said, according to the affidavit. "And he still wants to put his hands on me. Die *****. ****ing die. Stupid mother****er. That's what liberalism gets you."

"I hope they all die," Christian continued, according to the affidavit. "I'm gonna say that on the stand. I'm a patriot and I hope everyone I stabbed died."
