    Were any shots fired?

    Cause I’ve said it before, if no bullet is fired then it’s not assassination attempt, it’s just sparkling intimidation.

      It was concepts of an assassination attempt.

      I thought this when I heard about the Manson chick was charged with attempting to shoot president Ford, when apparently it was an unloaded gun.

      Interestingly, two women have been done for attempting to murder a president; both of which was against Ford within the same month within a small radius (maybe 100 miles).

      I think generally anything that is considered an attempted <whatever>, the judicial system takes into account the intent of the person who is being accused. If the intent was to assassinate Trump, and the person had everything they needed to do it, and would have done it if they had not been stopped, then a real attempt was made.

        So the state has to prove that they would have done it not stopped and the defence has to prove the opposite (or something like that)?

        My condolences. I don’t think I could handle being married to a conspiracy theorist.

        I think the vast majority of his current supporters are self-hating and want to make others feel as badly about life as they do - without realizing it, of course.

        I could see someone coming to resent him while still holding the Republican “deplorables” identity. He is functionally above the law. Still ripping people off. Still pretending to be something he’s not and will never be. And they still have crappy little lives.

        But who knows? I’m just a rando.
        We’ll never know the intent or reasons of the first shooter. It’ll be interesting once the second guy’s story comes out.

    This isn’t accurate. What they are saying is, “why isn’t anyone shooting Kamala Harris.”

    No no no not like that. You’re supposed to let the tyrant win and then let them do all the tyrannical shit they said they’d do, then you buy your cosplay outfit defensive gear and get lit the fuck up by the military as is intended.

    Republicans don’t believe that they need guns to defend against tyranny. They think they need guns because they are mine, they are scared, fantasy fulfillment of defending property or killing people in public. The oligarchical overlords in the republican party believe in guns because the peasants will kill the undesirables that they pitched to fight each other. The guns were never meant to be turned on the upper class that control the world

    Ha-ha, but this makes it seem like we don’t understand that the republicans think their opposition are the tyrants and they’re the patriots that’ll defend it.

    It really is as simple as “nobody thinks they’re the bad guy.”

    I’m not saying they’re right I’m just saying, this is the answer as to “why” if you were wondering
