The Montana body slam, what's more alarming???

[Dragonlady]

A) an American politician getting physical with an overly aggressive reporter

B) seeing a grown man get battered and crying about it instead of defending himself?

For rational people, the answer is "B" and it's not even close

Unfortunately, the way society is going, this may well become the norm in my lifetime

Thoughts?

None of the above.

What is most shocking to any decent human being is that you would think that such behaviour is not the very description of fascist behaviour.

The current attempts to demonize and attack the press in the US is the end of your Republic.

When you wish to turn a democracy into a dictatorship, you censor the press, by violence, if necessary. And your kill the opposition.

I have seen many posters on this board call for killing liberals. Saying that the US won't be great again until liberal scum are wiped out.

I've watched your President tell dictators and kings that civil rights don't matter, and heap praise on a despot for allowing roving bands of vigilantes to shoot drug addicts in the street.

Your same President bullies his allies and literally shoves them aside.

And the Republican Party reveals their total corruption by saying nothing about any of it.

Guessing you haven't been to a liberal riot, I mean liberal march.

LOL, do you really believe journalists ought to be obsequious and partisan fools - like you?

Is that a trick question? LMAO

.

No! It's a statement of facts. And you know it!

Really, the majority of the press sucked mulatto dick for 9 years and counting. They are definitely obsequious and partisan fools, just like you.

.

Side note, when people tell me I am racist for hating Obama, I tell them I hate his white half...

I don't hate him, just have no use for him.

.

I don't really hate anyone either

Sometimes I'm just trying to be funny...

A. What evidence is there that the reporter was "overly aggressive", the statement by the Fox Reporter says differently. You were not there, she was!

B. The Reporter was battered, and that is a crime. He was sucker punched by a coward, the sucker punch is the way of a cowardly thug.

This may become the new normal, as the DA / Prosecutor did not do his job and allege the conduct was an aggravated assault i.e. a felony. As it stands the complaint is a low grade misdemeanor. The thug could spend up to 6 months in the County Jail.

I bet he won't serve a day - imagine if the roles were reversed and the Reporter sucker punched the thug - the reporter would probably go to prison. The bright side of this event is the civil judgment may be a larger penalty than the slap on the wrist for the criminal act - of course the thug will probably have a civil judgment against him, but that will be paid for by another neo fascist.

The reporter became a trespasser when the candidate told him they would talk about it later and didn't leave. From what I understand the candidate was preparing for an on camera interview when the reporter entered uninvited and started asking questions and didn't leave when asked.

.

A Birther brings us the facts! lol

.

Deny it.

That's not how this works

You made an accusation, ergo, it is incumbent upon you to offer proof of your assertion

I don't have to prove something you don't deny. Your refusal to deny it confirms my claim.

I am not a Birther. The Birthers are idiots.

See? See how easy that was? You can't do that. That's all we need to know.

By over 3 to 1, Americans support freedom of the press. Once more the RWnut bandwagon goes off into its own little world.

Blue Ribbon for the most spot on post on this thread, and maybe the best description of the deplorable neo fascist movement in America. Amoral describes this element perfectly, that is they lack a moral sense and are unconcerned with the rightness or wrongness of an act; a clear example of might makes right and the end justifies the means, by a self righteous group of hypocrites.

What stands out are their own statements, and they prove beyond any reasoned doubt that they justify and applaud acts or threats of acts of violence, when it suits them. They condemn acts of vandalism at a rally and defend an act of violence on a reporter.

Assault is assault. If this were an illegal the right would be crowing hard.

The issue isn't that the candidate didn't want to talk to the reporter or was interrupted while doing something else, the issue is that the candidate reacted with abuse and extreme violence. Body slamming, choking and punching someone who asked a question? Vicious and yes, he should be charged with a felony.

He could have asked someone to escort the reporter out, or just shut up and refused to speak. Violence is the worst possible response.

I strongly suspect that had 75% of the public not already voted by mail, that the thug would have lost the election.

it has been pointed out that a very tight race was expected, but that the end results had a wider margn of victory than predicted

seems this incident with the reporter was a part of that

what that says to me is that the average American hates & distrusts the media

What's alarming are the constant attacks on the First Amendment.

Patriotic Americans absolutely MUST fight against trump and the RWNJ Pootarian traitors making this the new normal.

Whine all you want cupcakes but the constitution stays.

Generally, the above average American - IQ above 99 - reads and listens to the MSM, and can understand the difference between News and Editorial Comments.

That doesn't mean those with double digit IQ's are stupid, simply that they are more likely to be biddable, i.e., easily led by propaganda, and more likely to echo the daily meme [as noted in the post directly above].

I'm glad you believe that asshole politician should have gotten his ass kicked.

You made a typo with kicked rather than licked as you intended

You spineless RWNJs meekly roll over and give Repubs carte blanche to take every cent and hand it over to the 1% - just as you are doing now.

But, did you notice what set the politician off?

He couldn't answer the question about trump (doesn't) care.

The politician has a record of assault and battery and he's a froot loop creationist.

But more than anything else, he has a record of fighting the First Amendment.

IOW, he's the perfect for RWNJ Pootarian traitors like you.

I definitely do NOT!

I minimize my taxes in oh so many ways.

If you knew you would be triggered to another hissy fit.

Child, not every lives in snowflake land. The guy refused to take no for an answer TWICE, he wasn't physically injured, which is usually required to sustain a felony charge. The congressman won't be convicted if it goes to trial.

So in May 2017 Republicans defend violence and today they are claiming they aren't the violent onces at these rallies? I doubt that.

Those are not Republicans, they may vote Republican and some Republican politicians do support them it seems, but those are different organizations.

For example, one of the main groups at Charlottesville was the National Socialist Movement:

although those are older pictures, they recently removed the swastika from their symbol, which is now this:

You guys never accept responsibility. Reminds me of when a Christian kills and Christians say, "he wasn't a "REAL" Christian. LOL. Yes he was.

And black criminals in the ghetto aren't democrats.

So you and everyone who tagged your post are cool with getting violent with someone you don't like.

Check.
