(5,420 posts)Anyone have a running total of how many times rethugs purposely roused the idiots, then someone was killed?
If this was turned around the other way and it was dems who were constantly saying "shoot, kill, target", and spewing lies that cause hate and fear, advocating armed revolution, carrying rifles to political events, and republicans were getting killed, it sure would not be tolerated. You know their whiny asses would have called this shit out long ago and made it not acceptable to use that kind of speech.

(5,420 posts)Since Obama, I think they really hoped one of the idiots would actually get him.
They have spent the entire last 4 years doing everything possible to not let anything, anything get through congress that Obama could lay claim to. They cared not if the country went down as they knew THEY would survive. It was all NO, no, no. Just to make him look ineffective. One thing on their mind. No second term. Anyway, anyhow, no second term. They can't have black people thinking it's ok for them to be president, after all.
The hate was there in the rednecks all along. But it was the republicans and the media who made it fashionable again. They should all be on trial for hate crimes and in my opinion treason.

Why do we allow people like this to own guns? I'm sorry but I think the whole NRA thing is insane. Americans have to start to realize that this isn't a political game. It is a matter of deciding the kind of society we wish to live in. Sorry I'm ranting and it's not my thread. My remorse to the people of the Sikh Temple.
