MAGAThread XX: A Journal of the Plague Year

[Farnhamia]

The fact that we have 20 of these is depressing.

How many of these did Obama and Bush inspire? Wasn't it none?

It wasn't done, not that I remember, anyway.

[Northern Davincia]

I would like to repeat the point that her organization was not the one that inspired the catechism.

And I'd like to repeat my point that "ordinary traditional Catholic" is quite crazy enough, when it comes to Supreme Court Justices. And given the assumption which ND hasn't challenged, that she will let her religious beliefs influence her judicial thinking.

Your case is that she's likely even crazier than that. Carry on.

We have no reason to believe Barrett is anything other than an originalist. I doubt she is a theocrat.

What defines an ordinary traditional Catholic?

Fancy hats.

The hats are a bonus.

This doesn't really reflect on Trump so much except in the 'how come everyone you surround yourself with is problematic at best', but also...um...how come?

Amy Ford claims she shot the woman in self-defense

Amy Ford, a West Virginia nurse who spoke at this year’s Republican National Convention, was arrested on Saturday after shooting a woman in the stomach in her hometown.

Ford, 39, who was identified as Amy Thorn in the court filing, was charged with malicious or unlawful assault after shooting a woman in her abdomen in Williamson, West Virginia. The victim has been identified by WSAZ -TV as Jonda Whitt.

Ford also goes by Amy Johnson, the local news outlet reports.

While details of the incident remain unknown, Mingo County Police Chief Grady Dotson stated that Ford claims she acted in self-defense, according to WCHS-TV. Whitt is being treated at a local hospital and her injuries are not life-threatening.

Do we have a reason to believe it wasn't self-defense?

"While details of the case remain unknown"
So no. Unless he's referring to her traveling to NYC to help treat covid patients and being a mother...

That's not how it works. The onus is on her to prove self defence. You cannot assume self defence, even if she claims it.

She left the situation, retrieved a weapon, then came back. Generally that's not self defence. Just because you don't -have- to retreat if able doesn't mean it's still self defence if you do.

Where did you see that? The article in the post doesn’t repot that. If she did do as you described, she is guilty.

Leaving the danger area and coming back with a weapon sounds like outright murder to me, if true. Don't know if it is true or not though.

Because that is claimed many many times. The devil will be in the details. If it went down as Vass described?......that’s not self defense.

"Through the investigation we came to find out that two females got into a verbal argument, turning into one of the females getting a gun. She did shoot the victim one time in the abdomen area," Williamson Police Chief Grady Dotson said.

Well, you know. You're walking outside, next thing you know you're arguing with some lady, and at that point what recourse do you have but to shoot her in the stomach with your gun which you have with you? We've all been there I think

[Celritannia]

Because who doesn't care about catching COVID from Trump?

[Shrillland]

I just wanted to say in regards to yesterday's barrage against Illinois in Trump's Order of the Day Tweets: Good Lord, at least find something original about us to complain about, you haven't said anything that we haven't said ourselves for at least 30 years.

I personally can't wait for this thread to die because it means the 4 year nightmare would be over.

We all dream of a world where Donald Trump is no longer in the news, but I don't think that him losing the presidency will be the end of his public life.

[Jerzylvania]

Ye of little faith. Trust my gift - the visions of November redemption. Politically, Trump's a dead man walking.

Don't be too optimistic yet.

I can handle myself. Don't YOU worry.

His footprint will be massively reduced.

OTOH there's always the latest "trial of the century" in Trump's case it's for Tax Fraud and RICO charges in NY State. That could get him some media exposure.

Here is one article. She said she “feared for her safety” walked to her car, retrieved the weapon and shot her.

Not exactly self defense.

“ Williamson Police Chief Grady Dotson said Thorn claimed she had become fearful for her safety and had told Whitt she had a gun. “She went to the car and got the gun out of the car,” Dotson said, local news outlet the Mingo Messenger reported.”

Depends on the situation and the time it took to get the weapon. But yes, in principle, that would be premeditated killing.

Hopefully he gets muted on Twitter.

Ah,. Farn got the new thread up.

Because who doesn't care about catching COVID from Trump?

Well, he has never taken it seriously anyway so...

Tough to say: if he were to lose, Twitter would almost certainly shutdown his account since, well, he wouldn't be the President anymore. But I do think Trump will try to start Trump TV, and then probably face prosecution for a a variety of State crimes.

Ah, of course, guilty until proven innocent. The party of Kamala Harris wouldn't have it any other way.

Hmmm? Well? I don’t think they will shut him down as long as he keeps getting followers, clicks and shares. I do think he will get policed a great deal more.

Trump TV? . He will try to out do OANN.
