Shooting at GOP baseball practice; House Majority Whip Scalise shot

[fan_since79]

And the media adds fuel to the fire. There's a CNN story up right now that in the headline says Bernie urged his supporters four days ago to "take down Trump", but nowhere in the article can I find those words being used by Sanders.

Rob Schneider has been around forever, man.

Didn't this guy know that Trump isn't a congressman? If you're looking for Donnie you should try the golf course or the buffet table

For a moment there I thought it was Ted Danson. You know how they all look alike.

This deserves to be seen.

Will be interesting to see if Bern actually ponies up and donates to the charities that the baseball game will be supporting.

$500,000! Bernie must be a millionaire!

[Spirit]

He is!!!

 

 

 

[Blarg]

Multiple times, like a 2% millionaire?

[fan_since79]

But he's one of the poorest members of the U.S. Senate.

Bottom 20%, depending on which estimate is correct. That's how wealthy these people are.

That data is over a year old.  The dude has cashed in over the last year!

Uhhh... This is about as political as it gets, hunting down Republican members of Congress and shooting them. And this is our society fueled by partisanship.

Its a crazy guy doing awful things.  No more, no less.

[Spirit]

MT is kind of right.  The guy is a liberal terrorist.  If we break that down, it fits MT's description.

Liberal = crazy guy

Doing awful things = terrorism

Not nearly.

They were targeted specifically because of their political affiliation. It's an attempted assassination.

But yes, he was crazy. I'll grant you that. Most assassins are deranged in some way or another.

Did Timothy McVeigh blow up Oklahoma City because of "rhetoric from the right"?

Does some guy who blows up an abortion clinic do so because of the church? 

Too many crazies out there and they will find a reason to be crazy.  

[fan_since79]

McVeigh was an anti-government fanatic and targeted the FBI building specifically as a government facility. He was also angry at them for Ruby Ridge and Waco.

A nut who blows up an abortion clinic is also extremely opposed to abortion as a legal right.

Yes, they're crazed, but the targets are not random or unrelated to their political goals.

To say they're crazy and there's nothing more is simply not the case.

Scalise's condition has been downgraded to critical following surgery.

He was stable getting off the field, then the Angels medical staff had it's crack at him apparently.

I laughed. Am I a terrible person?

 

Never mind, don't answer that.

Of course they had their reasons.  They all do.  Doesn't mean they aren't crazy or that you can blame the dems for their "discourse".

No, this is a political assisination. No less. It is prompted by rhetoric in the news and fueled by society in social media. This is not just one whack job, you have roving bands of "anarchists" beating people to a pulp because of political differences at speaking events. This is not cry wolf, this is the fucking wolf.

Dems and Cons create an us-vs-them because that is how you motivate supporters. This is the result.
