Dem Strategist: Scalise Shooting “Natural Culmination” of Republican Rule
Legal Insurrection ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 06/20/2017 10:10:22 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

James Devine—the Dem strategist who tweeted #HuntRepublicanCongressmen in the hours following the shooting of Republican Congressman Steve Scalise—was a guest on Tucker Carlson’s Fox News show last night. Devine’s rambling and confused argument ultimately led Tucker to tell Devine that he is an “unbalanced person.”

But listen carefully to what Devine said, and you’ll detect what amounts to his justification of the Scalise shooting. He first quotes Sen. Rand Paul [whom Devine twice calls “Paul Rand”] to the effect that the purpose of the Second Amendment is to permit people to “shoot at a tyrannical government.”

Devine then argued that Republican policies have constituted “tyrannical government.” And so, repeatedly declared Devine, the shooting of Scalise constituted a “natural culmination.” Sounds much like a defense of the shooting, or at the least, as Carlson called it, rendering the shooting “understandable.”

I guess they’ve they’re not going to be able to stuff the Scalise assassination attempt into the memory hole, so they’re going to try to justify it.

Unbelievable. This will launch a thousand political ads for our side.

I don’t know about the boys, but I must say, watching the segment, that I found myself wondering about his BAC.

Yup. Leftists are violent mass murdering tyrants when they don’t get their way. Hmmmm... leftists are also violent mass murdering tyrants when they do get their way. Twentieth century history proves that.

there is a sickening, self ratifying circularity about this, of course. schumer, maddow, pelosi, et al, incite their followers to commit violence against their political opponents, and then blame their political opponents for the carnage.

I’m sure there are people stupid enough to buy it.

How about we put a price out for his head?

To be delivered in a basket.

The rest of the body optional.

You can just here the howling by the socialist-democrats now about how the “evil bitter clinging to their guns” republicans are going to massacre all of the people of color and LBGTQBXYZ crowd.

Of course the socialist-democrats will sic their rabid antifa, BLM, LaRaza, slowflake SJW college commies, and trigger happy bernie-bots on any who dare question their virtue signalling and socialist dogma.

I say: Bring it on.

Did you notice the cuffs on his shirt? That means he can’t shop for himself and/or no woman in his home.

Jimmy should be spending 5 years in a federal prison for incitement.
