    This attack didn't help Nixon in the 60's. Labeling protestors as a mob will only make the GOP seem authoritarian

    I don't think think it is a stratagem or a ploy. It is SUCH a consistent conservative complaint through history all over the world. They honestly think of themselves as better than everybody else and have contempt for the great unwashed masses. I'm sure they love to limit the vote to landed gentry if they could get away with it.

    We're not talking about hippies protesting anymore, we're talking about violent mobs who attack peaceful protesters that don't agree with them.

    How long should we wait for trump's condemnation of these attempted attacks on political opponents?

    [EDIT] The White House has condemned the attempted bombing of 2 former Presidents...but, as we've seen numerous times before, what the White House releases as a statement isn't necessarily what trump thinks or will follow up on.

    TBF one was sent to the White House too. So I'm not sure what to make of it.

    Your left-wing homerism is laughable.

    A bomb was sent to the White House but you fail to mention that in all your left-wing contrived rambling.

    What a joke.

    Hopefully for the country's sake, the now violent state of politics will be stopped.

    It was clearly reported before you mentioned the Time Warner Center.

    I had already posted about it.

    You are triggered over what, a ten minute difference in news reporting... by a poster on a political discussion site?

    Let me clue you in... I don't consider myself to be a news source. If you want that I'd suggest cnn, fox, AP or other sources of news reporting. And if you are really "outraged" by my posts, there is an easy solution... click on my name, choose ignore. Won't hurt my feelings, its a great feature that I use on a few people here.

    Would you like a cookie?

    He posted at almost the exact same moment you did. I didn't see an article until you mentioned it.

    You might be expecting too much from a DNC propaganda bot. It isn't programmed to include information counter to the narrative it is going for.

    The WH bomb was reported when you decided to post about the other bombs.

    However, the WH bomb didn't fit your narrative and you ignored it.

    Just calling out the BS.

    *EDIT* CNN now reporting it misreported WH bomb. Could have been a right-winger. Carry on.

    There's now conflicting reports about if a package was addressed to the White House. Some saying yes, some saying no.

    A three letter bomb party.

    Nah not as fitting as the mass murder shooter party.

    I'm so clever with my cartoons.

    SCOREBOARD :rolleyes:
