In a scorching dissent to the Supreme Court’s bombshell ruling, the liberal justice wrote that presidents will be able to assassinate a political rival with impunity.
Democrats won’t, they’re too busy “taking the high road”. And by “high road” I mean “bribe big enough to live comfortably in Thailand for the rest of their lives”
That’s a personal problem. The people paying attention and most at risk have been arming themselves since 2015. LGBTQ, Black, and Hispanic gun ownership are the fastest rising ones. Trailing them is more white people, whos rate of gun ownership is also rising, just slower. Eveyones been buying more guns.
I don’t own guns. I own glass bottles. They are far more effective weapons when wielded correctly. A single glass bottle can do more damage than a thousand bullets.
I don’t own glass bottles. I own garden gnomes. They are far more effective weapons when wielded correctly. A single garden gnome can do more damage than a thousand glass bottles.
It is astonishing how few people know how to correctly deal damage with a glass bottle. It is not about the glass, it is about what it is filled with. Now I am smarter than to explicitly state anything in an open forum online that could constituted unprotected speech, not that that holds much water. Speaking of, the bottles are not filled with water.
Wow, so many down votes. Either people don’t understand or they are against historically useful anarchic ordinance. Seriously people, if we have any hope of dealing with these problems we need to take some cues from some Ukrainian grandmothers circa 2 to 3 years ago regarding the proper and artful application of glass.

I will not be the one to cast the first stone, but I will also not sit silently by as the safety of my family is threatened. I have studied our history, I have studied our present, and I will not let another Crystal Noct occur without absolute retribution. This citizen will take the second amendment and its intended purpose of allowing the people to protect themselves from despots, tyrants, and autocrats who attempt to sunder the fabric of this democracy. I will meet force with overwhelming retaliation, if possible, so much that they think twice before attempting again.

Trump, Trump, Trump. “All these things Trump could do…”
How about, Biden could have Trump assassinated as a political rival.
Done and done.
Democrats won’t, they’re too busy “taking the high road”. And by “high road” I mean “bribe big enough to live comfortably in Thailand for the rest of their lives”
To paraphrase and increase the accuracy of a deeply wrongheaded (imo) political slogan:
Biden could assassinate every billionaire in the country overnight.
Why not order the NSA to hack their bank accounts and just take the money?
Everyone is going straight to assassinations, but there’s a whole lot that this immunity could accomplish before killing is needed.
None of it will happen with a democratic president, because of norms that they apparently haven’t realized mean fuck all to the other side.
The president couldn’t be charged for taking the billionaires’ money but the money could still be returned. An assassination can’t be undone.
Yeah turn their godlike cult figurehead into a martyr. Let’s see how that works out in the long run.
They already are treating him like a martyr. It would just be follow through at this point
I’m game.
That would instantly start a civil war, and if you’re keeping track, we don’t have any/as many guns.
Speak for yourself, and if you don’t, you should really look into buying them. We’re not heading towards a happy place in this country.
Or know some gun nuts and where they keep em.
Who doesn’t have guns?
Around 66% of American Households don’t have a gun.

This is like Charlie with his sword talking to Mac with his gun
No, it is not. It really is not. Because Charlie is smart enough to fill the glass bottle and use it while Mac sleeps.
You called Charlie smart, which worries me lol
That is because I don’t know to what you are referring. I was simply turning the statement around.
It’s a joke about the character Charlie in IASIP.

Yah, the garden gnomes aren’t filled with water either.

Wait, I thought we were all kidding. Please tell me your not serious…

Cool. I love sci-fi books.
