Minnesota assasination thread

I'll never understand why the folks running Kamala's campaign didn't let Walz be himself more. He is a genuinely good human and would have been a great Vice President
Eh, VPs don't matter. If they did, Walz would be VP now. I get your point and I generally agree, but the discussion seems academic to me.
 
So the problem here isn't that the killer was deranged; it's that he was rational. As I've said multiple times before, I'm really surprised there aren't way more political assassinations than there are.

Let's go back to 2023, to pick one example. Suppose you're an ordinary liberal with terminal cancer and you want to do one last good deed for the betterment of humankind. There are many options, of course, but one stands out above the rest: killing Clarence Thomas and/or Sam Alito would be tens of thousands of times more impactful than anything else you could do. Well, I don't frequently think about assassinations so maybe there's somebody else you could kill that would also be impactful, but the point is assassination is a far, far better option than anything else you could do.

This shooter saw the opportunity to flip both houses of the Minnesota legislature. He flipped one and might have flipped another had his second attack been fully successful. Who in America ever has that kind of power? Assassins and billionaires, that's who.

The single most important reform to be made in this regard would be eliminating life tenure for judges. That just puts a fucking bullseye on their backs.

But we should expect more of this. I mean, think about young Mr. Precip, who killed Archduke Ferdinand. He actually did free Serbia from Austrian domination. He did what no other person in Europe ever could.

No way Trump ever pardons Boelter. The jury is still out whether he's even MAGA. I'm seeing photos on line with Boelter in a "Resist" t-shirt standing by his wife in a "I think therefore I am a Democrat" t-shirt. Could be fake so I'm not posting them nor putting 100% stock in them...yet. I just don't see someone as MAGA if they have "No King" fliers in their car. It doesn't add up. We're likely going to learn more about this weirdo/killer in the coming weeks.

Feds need to try him since it brings the death penalty into play.
The jury is only out for those that don't want to admit he is maga.

So are you saying that magas do want a king? I thought there was a negative response to his dictator statement in the campaign, until fox sanewashed it for him.
 
In all seriousness, potential clients of Buckhead lawyer deserve to know the degree to which the man is this incredibly gullible, or pathetic.
The Supreme Court of Georgia, like all states, requires attorneys to swear to “support and defend the Constitution of the United States.” I cannot imagine how Ram can continue practicing in good faith after what he has said about his partner’s complicity in the effort to steal Georgia’s electoral votes in 2000.
 
Dude what? Tell me where I'm wrong. This is a problem that isn't going away; is likely to get worse; and I don't see what benefit comes from not talking about it.
You’re a lawyer, correct? I think what you wrote is potentially legally actionable against us. You seem to frame murder as justifiable, even a noble act. Even if it’s just rhetorical hyperbole, it can legitimize real world violence.

1. It is absolutely 100% not legally actionable. This site is not the publisher of any information. And anyway it would have to spur an actual action, and that action would have to be fairly traceable to this board, and even then there wouldn't be liability unless one could prove causation which would be nearly impossible.

2. I'm not framing murder as a noble act. But it is justifiable. That's just a fact. And even more factually and importantly, people believe that it is.

Who won the O7 war? Kind of Hamas, right? I mean, the Palestinian people are getting crushed. Hamas is obviously taking a lot of losses. But it also focused the world's attention on Gaza; created international sympathy for Hamas' cause; weakened the United States; and has made Israel increasingly pariah state. And that is a perverse outcome.

This insistence on not talking about this stuff -- when literally it just happened -- seems bonkers to me. You can't escape the truth.

Mike Lee, at the very least, should be censured by his colleagues in the Senate. Impeachment would be better.

Forgetting the legal part, your text absolutely glorifies violence.

It does nothing of the sort.

We're sitting here on a thread about a guy who just killed people in order to flip a legislature. Literally it just happened. Pretending he is an insane person isn't going to help make that go away. The problem is specifically that his actions are rational. That's a fact. If we don't want to glorify it, we should probably give some thought to reforming the various systems to insulate against the possibility.
