I got to thinking, what other country on earth. other than the US, would allow someone who attempts to kill them to live afterwards?

In a way it is it is a coup attempt to thwart a duly elected official.

What gives?

Calm down, Karen! We don't execute people when they fail to succeed. It's a reward for ******* up!

I see, so let them go and tell them to come back when they hit something?

When will the US get serious about all of these attempted murders?

It will only continue unless something is changed.

The dude that did this should hang

Oh, and I don't want to hear that they can't cuz he is crazy. Of course he is crazy.

Idiots.

When the **** did I say anything of the sort? I said we don't execute them.

See, I knew your name was Karen!

Under a traitor clause........public hanging was used and legal
 
It depends upon who the president is. If it was Bush Baby Junior then the assailant should be given a medal.
Again, we are talking about a democratically elected leader.

Should coup attempts be fostered by not properly punishing these attempts?

Reading difficulties?
What other country would allow them to live?

It's like the open borders in the US that no other country has

Sheer lunacy.

Maybe if a coup attempt ran with it a mandatory death sentence, the Left would think twice about further coup attempts that you know are coming if they win the midterms.

It doesn't matter. We do not execute people for just about anything anymore.

Is it because the US is a more just country than all other countries that do, or is it because the US has given up on justice altogether and has decided to fully embrace lawlessness?

Unsuccessful attempts should get a minimum of 20 years at Florence ADX.

You are one of those who belief that the President of the USA - stands above the law?

I wouldn't know of any person in a democratic Western country who attempted an assassination or murder of a person - and received a death sentence. Maybe you need to move to Saudi-Arabia or Zimbabwe.

True - that's why TACO and the January 6th deplorable, aren't in prison - neither are those ICE killers.
Hey!, is it the TACO administration that made the USA become a lawless country??

Geo. Bush Junior was democratically elected (so they say) but his decisions were akin to Adlof Hitler. I understand this is not your point and being awarded a medal for "doing him in" is also not your theme. However .....

... in the case of Bush and his cronies Rumsfeld and Chenney the job of getting rid of him for good would have been doing Democracy a favour despite it not being a Democratic act itself. So, maybe national law and international law differ to a point where "offing" a leader who is responsible for murdering a million plus innocent men, women, and children ought to be given leniency?

If we kill him it relieves him of a lifetime of torture. Why not send him to some prison in El Salvador for life? And we should have a webcam on him to show the rest of America, especially the dumocraps, what happens when you do really dumb shit. I also think his parents should be punished in some way, as good parenting could have avoided this. And it would cause today's really fucked up parents to be better parents and raise their children to not do really dumb shit.

He's not an assassin.
 
Who should be fired for allowing this to happen OP?
