Are you calling this would be assassin a hero? Because I see him as a dickwit who will only harm the anti-Trump cause.

Not that I'm saying I'd prefer him to have succeeded, but if he had then we wouldn't need an anti-Trump cause.

I don't think that this man actually wanted to kill trump. If he wanted to kill trump, he could have come up with a better way than trying to steal a policeman's gun. Probably a right-wing trump supporter who wanted trump to get sympathy points.

Was he screaming "Britain First" when he was grabbing the cop's gun?

Also, please don't assassinate Trump. I mean, aside from the fact that being an unfortunate human being shouldn't be a capital offense even if you're threatening to rule the free world so to speak (jesus it never occurred to me how pretentious that sounds), but worse yet you'll make the fucker a martyr. I mean, can you fucking imagine?

No...no, it's too dark. Don't assassinate as a rule, but seriously, just...there are safer more humiliating ways to prevent this dude from being president.

Maybe he wasn't intending to actually kill Trump but scare the shit out him to the point he grabs the nearest baby as a bullet shield.

If he did that than the Secret Service would beat him up... :rofl:

There are very, very few barriers to getting a gun...if you are a U.S. citizen. This chap was not.

What? You think Trump's gonna take a page out of Nazi Germany's book and make an Atlantikwall?

Well with the rising sea level.... Perhaps a giant Sea wall will be necessary one day....

This was the inevitable result of the hyperbole and hysteria in the media and Democratic campaign.

WHY WOULD ANYONE WANT TO KILL A MAN THE MEDIA HAS BEEN CALLING "LITERALLY HITLER" FOR A YEAR? VERY MYSTERIOUS

If Clinton successfully pairs Trump with Hitler in your mind – as she is doing – and loses anyway, about a quarter of the country will think it is morally justified to assassinate their own leader. I too would feel that way if an actual Hitler came to power in this country. I would join the resistance and try to take out the Hitler-like leader. You should do the same. No one wants an actual President Hitler.

More like, 'I'll make America Great again!'.

That would be true if the 'literal Hitler' nub hadn't been worn down to nothing after some two decades of hyperbole. At this stage in the game, who isn't 'literally Hitler.'

Also, I mean, if we're going to wag our fingers at overdoing the demonetization of a political opponent...

Yeah I wonder which political party the Democrats learned that from. Hmm...

Because people keep saying Trump is Literally Hitler and will cause innumerable wars and suffering if he becomes president.

Look, I don't care about your opinions on the man, nobody should get killed for political views until they themselves have killed for those views.

The one flaw with any "False flag" theories is that anyone fanatical enough to volunteer to commit a felony to advance their cause would also be too fanatical to publicly and permanently support the opposite of their cause.

Neither candidate is anywhere near the Nazis (though Trump's positions are somewhat analogous to a highly moderate form of fascism.) but I really can't understand Hillary being equated with the Nazis.

To point this out in case the blood thirsty around here did not already get it, if Trump were killed it would only make some of the fear porn that the media pushes about him come true only in whoever rises to take his place.

Hardly, if that's the way that I saw Hillarly, I'd let her be my fuhrer anyday.

Or maybe he's just too stupid to come up with a better plan. Crazy, I know.

Hillary is not calling for genocide of Mexicans and other people of color like Trump does.

Trump doesn't call for genocide.

He does says to deport all illegal Mexican immigrants and their children who were born here. This is de facto genocide. Also, removal of an etnich group from a territory.

Deportation of illegals is not a genocide.

No actually it shows gun control does work, because any old idiot can't just buy an illegal gun.

Well, to be honest gun control didn't work in Paris or California

Then again, the guy was from Britain so gun control wouldn't affect him given that current laws only allow citizens to buy guns and not foreigners.

A, Mexican is not a ethnic group, Hispanic or Latino, I'd say yes.
B, deporting illegal immigrants who shouldn't even be in the country isn't genocide.

How not? Once they settled here they are becoming natives. If you agree with Trump you are a racist, hope you are aware of this.

Ok ok, so if I waltz into Canada illegally, I am now a native? That's now how it works bucko
