Mr. Otis,
A huge number of us are fed up too. However, we haven't gone and done something illegal to get free attention to spread your philosophy like you did. We also grew up with values you obviously do not have that "two wrongs don't make a right". So, someone did something wrong to members of your family and instead of addressing it through the courts or going after the actual perpetrator, you take it out on someone with whom you disagree who had nothing to do with YOUR situation? Are you unable to see how illogical that is?
If all of the rest of us who are fed up, and believe me we are, took to the streets destroying other peoples' stuff, what do you think would happen in this country? What if we started assaulting Democrat supporters, the Godless media we happened to encounter anywhere and just anyone because we were mad about something else, what would happen in this nation? What if other Democrats follow your lead and start destroying other peoples' property? Seems like a large number of people of your ilk who have grown up with "I can do whatever I want" values are starting to become violent this time around? Do you really want to do that?
Your punishment in this case will not be sufficient. You should not only lose your business and property, in my opinion, you should also be caned. However, I'm fed up, but not in charge...so you're lucky. ANYONE who does what you did should also receive the same punishment, no matter what side they are on. I would put a complete stop to violent acts over politics, because that is NOT our value system.
When the scandals came out about Bill Clinton's perverted sexual behavior, did anyone go around and start destroying property belonging to prominent Democrats? Has anyone hacked to pieces anything of note over Hillary's lying and her felonious behavior? Has anyone launched a significant attack on any media offices and/or transmission equipment for all of the bias, disinformation and attempts to openly and directly influence the election in which we are participating? Has anyone shown up at Democrat rallies and made a coordinated effort to incite violence?
What were you thinking? You apparently only thought of yourself and what was bothering you instead of thinking of how your actions could affect thousands of others. Jesus teaches us through the Bible to suffer wrongs and perceived wrongs for the welfare of all around us so we don't go to war with each other and burn our own house down. Please put down your sledge hammer and look at what He taught. We might all come about better if you and others like you do that and then we all won't be nearly so fed up.
Now we need to promote the Homeless guy who is guarding the Star.
“Your punishment in this case will not be sufficient. You should not only lose your business and property...”
Lose his business and property?
To whom should he lose his property?
He is an heir to the Otis Elevator fortune, I don’t think we want the government seizing Otis Elevator.
Democrats/liberals/Hillary supporters are all nuts. What sane person would do something as deranged as this.
If all his "motives" were true, doesn't he notice that he went after the wrong candidate ?
How come this guy wasn’t arrested? It appeared that their were many people around, where were the cops?
Calm down -— Otis is already in bed with the government - huge contracts in fact. Just like the German companies were all cozy with the German gvt in the 30 and 40s.
