I don't know where to begin with this. 🙄

False flag. Like graffiti on black churches.

What about the NY GOP candidate for Gov? Crickets from the WH.

I may have told this story before, but on a tour of some Mayan ruins, I asked the guide, who was obviously local, what really happened (as in, why was the Mayan civilization gone largely before the Spanish arrived). His response, without hesitation: the commoners got tired of the priests and nobility, slaughtered them, then walked off to live their lives.

Might be why reports of Hillary gasping in horror at what happened in Benghazi are likely accurate.

Something to think about.

If the “republican” was an Antifa member then it would have been OK.

[joma89]

Agreed. #falseflag

The left celebrated when Scalise was shot - they can shut up.

[dpetty121263]

Sounds like a good plan to me!

The dude was a complete loser who thought he’d get notoriety running as a republican in a district Jesus couldn’t win running as a republican. A real nut job.

Surprising and scary too.

[escapefromboston]

Yet he supported BLM riots..

"False flag. Like graffiti on black churches."

I don't know. Events like this just seem like the next logical step, although I'm not at all certain they would have any effect.

[hellinahandcart]

Well, if it was notoriety he wanted...😁

[Tijeras_Slim]

Nobody gets famous for a good reason out here, just ask Billy the Kid and Blackjack Ketchum.

[flamberge]

Jesus couldn’t win running as a republican.

A good argument for the futility of "elections" to change anything in New Mexico. So, what is left when all the other boxes are gone too (soapbox, jury box, ballot box)?

[the shooter was] A real nut job.

Those are the people who break first. But everybody has a breaking point eventually. Unchecked political powers evolve to a system of "despotism tempered by assassination".

I am unimpressed by the professed "shock and outrage" of the Democrats over this incident. They know what is coming. They are preparing for it too. What they are not going to do is fix the problems caused by their unchecked political powers and their abuse of them.

the commoners got tired of the priests and nobility, slaughtered them, then walked off to live their lives.

Yea for them! 😁

[Alas Babylon!]

Is Biden shocked because the shooters didn’t have an F-15?

[GingisK]

...but mostly ineffective.

I find the FBI classification of parents who attend school board meetings who care about exposing their children rape and child mutilation, as terrorists to put them on some watch list to surveil, and then to expose them to cancel culture via accidental leaks to the violent antifa types who work for them... also quite troubling.

Who does our constitution authorize with and enumerated right to be acting like the feds do with such unholy impunity? NOT the government.
