Despite me disagreeing with a lot of his stances he appeared to me to truly believe what he felt was best for his country.

The crazy because I deadass think he did too


Which means he wanted the absolute worst for people like me and who looked like me, as he so eloquently has said over the years.

So is this just to change topics away from Epstein list?

@ pearl clutching paulwest1985 conveniently popping up in here now.

Buddy has no shame whatsoever. Acting like we all can’t see through his shtick.

This guy talking about "speech don't kill people" - miss me with that ********. Speech is more dangerous than a gun, 'cause it's the words that push the one holding the gun to pull the trigger. Hate speech has no place, period. Nobody's less because they're gay, Black, an immigrant, whatever. Nobody's born a criminal. This same toxic rhetoric has fueled genocide over and over. Speech might not be the one holding the weapon, but it's sure as hell the one telling people to use it.

Yeah, we got freedom of speech , but again, that comes with consequences. I'd never go out and kill that dude for the garbage he was spewing, but I'm not losing a second of sleep knowing he ended up dead either.

Political climate change is heating up.

Whatever you think of this most recent victim of the discourse, things are going to get worse, before they get even worse.

My American friends, move with caution, this is the land of wolves now.

I will say this I been saying things like this would happen for month and the fear of things like this is why most of the republicans in congress have not been doing town halls and been hiding in DC.

America has a gun problem, the republicans lied to the majority of Americans…. Bad things would result from this.

Truly horrifying, tragic that this happened. Prayers for his family. Despite me disagreeing with a lot of his stances he appeared to me to truly believe what he felt was best for his country.

Rip

This really isn't a compliment to dude

I think most cruel bigots think their ideas will make the country better.

 

[Dr.BlasterCombo]

How did you jump to that correlation?

I see where this convo can go and I’ll pass. You jump on here when this racist is dead talking about a Republican redemption arc…… but only because you dont support this guy……

Low key my republican hommie said this to me 30 minutes ago

 

[osh kosh bosh]

irrespective of whatever you think about Kirke, escalating political violence is bad.

 

[RustyShackleford]

Could someone quote paulwest1985 posts in here from June when those Minnesota lawmakers got killed in their homes

I missed them

New page

Still waiting

[elpablo21]

I'm trying hard to imagine where we are in a year or two of this 2nd term

Like dog it's only September

White nationalists and supremacists wholesale believe that their cause is to further and benefit their country, does that still mean it has any validity in actuality?

Absolutely the **** not

The minute your cause involves trying to marginalize, attack, harm or target other groups strictly on the basis of their differences is the minute you lose any and all moral righteousness and justification forever.

 

[aepps20]

Given the overall depravity in our society and how terrible people are, I doubt this moves the needle because as it relates to gun violence in this country people have become desensitized.

Just an observation, I think it’s a step above people who say things strictly for engagement, likes, or other reasons.

The real loss in this is it will only further divide the country. The right will point out the lack of empathy, and the left will say tough ****.

 

[Mark Antony]

The "speech can't kill" rhetoric is so dense given all we know.

Supposedly 200 yards away on a building. The guy knew what he was doing and the fact that he's has yet to be found is pretty interesting.

Looking at the 360 photos of the UVU courtyard on Google..the shooter had to be at another building on campus..bc theres nowhere he have set up near the courtyard and not be seen

For me they are procedures, I can’t explain it well cause it had to be drilled in me, but what is commonly referred to as rights are procedures in trials and arbitrations. So showing the opposite side was not following those procedures “aka rights” is the best way to win…. Like I live in evidence and procedure, and then go to the substantive part of the case which is referred to as the facts.

Property law is a foundation of most of our rights, going back to the constitution and the bill of rights. Property is where the colonist and later Americans had the biggest issue legally because they considered black people property and natives had no right to own property if claimed by a settler.

I had to do a lot of reading and spent years taking classes to confidently say what I said and feel free to get another professionals opinion but property rights is the most immutable thing in the law. You can go state to state and 95% of it (maybe more) carries over between states. That’s unique and I would argue planned by the founding fathers.

If property rights are the most immutable thing in American law, then how do you explain adverse possession/squatter laws? In every state someone can literally take ownership of your property if certain conditions are met and you don’t act. that alone shows property rights aren’t absolute. They’re powerful, but they’re balanced against other principles like use, access, and fairness. If property really was the untouchable foundation, adverse possession wouldn’t even exist

I'll let you know if I find anything once I get through all the he-man woman hater posts

 

[atxhitter03]

I saw the video. Pretty wild. Has it been confirmed hes dead?

 

[mplsdunk]

Look he’s dead, time to move on. Where’s the Epstein list?

 

[freeze]

Guess he died on that hill

Following his own logic...

This isn't saying much

He was spreading hate for monetary gain

The real loss in this is it will only further divide the country. The right will point out the lack of empathy, and the left will say tough ****.

I think the real risk is that it will help in normalizing political violence and assassinations.

The country is already divided. These are the times. This won't do much on a macro level when it comes to partisanship.

But a cold war turning hot is extremely bad news
