    I try not to blame someone for other people's wrongdoings... And I missed the part where leaders are promoting pipe bombings and shootings.

    Of course you did.

    Yeah, I'm not a mentally ill person.

    I'll make this one point.

    You're not mentally, ill, unfortunately many are, some see political rabble rousing and send bombs or shoot old people in places of worship. Again though, I know you're not reachable, this post really isn't meant for you so much as others who might be more receptive.

    Glad you're using your enlightened views to reach the huge masses of people on DawgNation. Clearly DawgNation is the best platform to do your good deed and enlighten the masses. All hail the great WCDawg for his great work in solving life's biggest issues. Now we know that WORDS MATTER, and that's the reason people shoot and bomb each other. D@mn words! We need to ban words now, because they've clearly caused more deaths than even AR-15s.

    Everywhere is a good platform. Political sites are actually the worst choice because only the most politically extreme people visit them, you'll never reach that type.
    Honestly Teddy, you seem completely clueless, I wonder if you have any sense of history.

    It's not nice to call me "clueless" and question my intellect on history, that hurts me, what if I did a bad thing now? Pot meet kettle

    I didn't question your intellect, intellect can take you in all manner of directions.

    You still called me clueless. You forgot your own mantra, words matter!

    My words are not inflammatory.

    So, now you're telling me how my own feelings work when being called names?

    This isn't kindergarten you're not likely to commit mass murder because you feel I hurt your feelings.

    The left likes to blame the president for creating all this hatred and emotionalism and general chaos that the left has unleashed on society (lets be honest, it’s not conservative groups out there rioting, harassing people, chasing them out of restaurants and threatening violence if they don’t get their way). Trump didn’t create this hatred, he revealed it. It has always been there on the left. They have been in charge for a long time so there was no need for these intimidation tactics. You simply can not blame others for your bad behavior. There is no such thing as “triggering”. That is a lazy person’s excuse. That used to be called immaturity and childishness.

    I don't condone any harassment from either side.
    There is no equivalent to the POTUS being a constant hate mongering, rabble rouser though.

    The problem with the national conversation started in the media. Where way too many people just decided it’s a lot easier to make a buck mud slinging rather than to try to educate people. It’s to the point know where it’s impossible to find a legitimate news source covering politics. And then more and more people wanted more and more partisan leaders. You guys who don’t realize what a terrible partisan Obama was were entirely hoodwinked. And then it got to the point where in a general way, 51% of the nation felt like we needed a big mouth to be president to try to beat some of this nonsense back.

    This whole thing is part of a process. Acting like there’s just one guy causing it all and if we’d just vote for someone different... You’re still gonna have the underlying fundamental problem of a nation who doesn’t know how to discuss issues. And maybe it doesn’t manifest itself through Trump. But it manifests itself in other ways. And not being able to discuss real problems that need to be fixed, it’s gonna manifest itself in terribly **** ways. A lot uglier than just having to have a president who tweets mean things,

    When you have leaders calling mostly peaceful people rapist and murderers, constantly calling the press and the opposition enemies of the people, etc, etc, it will find its way into vulnerable minds and lead to sick actions, that is 100% predictable.

    We can be better than this.

    I’m not going to say anything other than this. How many times have the media been caught lying to the people to support what ever agendas they might have?

  • bigdawg2223bigdawg2223 Posts: 1,833 ✭✭✭✭✭ Graduate

    To the comment about countries who have banned “assault weapons” they simply have stabbing and knife attacks.

    Also assault weapons are banned in this country as well.

    That is an incredibly one-sided and biased way of looking at things.

    No it's not.
    There is no comparison to the vitriol coming from the leader of the free world. These sick people make it clear that is their source of reference.

    You keep going back to that. But I don’t think anybody has tried to tell you we don’t have a guy with an incredibly big **** mouth as our president. Nobody disagrees with that.

    And yeah, there are nutcases out there looking for something to latch onto. Trump has disavowed people who’ve come into the public eye like that. The only ones encouraging these sickos to be motivated by Trump is the left wing media who’s reporting you apparently treat as gospel.

    99.9% of Trump supporters are reasonable, rational people. And you look at the 0.1% Trump has disavowed, and you say, “You see what Trump has done!”

    You just need to state theories such as, blaming the president for a mentally unstable man’s actions. It’ll flyover real well with the crowd. Then make sure you don’t hear anyone out and treat your word as the gospel and bam, you’ve “won” the argument. It’s science. Hope I didn’t get too technical for you. Please refer to @WCDawg for any further explanation needed, as it’s pretty advanced for me.

    Also assault weapons are banned in this country as well.

    And knife attacks are typically much less deadly than ar-15 attacks, and more easily countered by a "good guy with a gun"

    And fully automatic rifles are banned but not assault weapons. We used to have a ban but it sunset in the mid 2000s and now the ar-15 is the most popular rifle in America.

    In light of recent events and our political climate I want to share words spoken by Mayor William Hartsfield just over 60 years ago, the day after the Oct. 12th 1958 dynamite bombing of a Jewish temple in Atlanta.

    ''Whether they like it or not, every political rabble rouser is the godfather of these cross burners and dynamiters who sneak about in the dark and give a bad name to the south'' ____Atlanta Mayor William Hartsfield.
    It's not dynamite or restricted to the south now, it's AR-15s and pipe bombs and it's national. We're better than this.

    WORDS MATTER, especially when they come from supposed leaders.

    I only see 2 words here that equate a bit of logic. Remember that going forward, because we all just witnessed you quoting yourself, that "WORDS MATTER." ;)

    Good points there. People have this whole thing backwards. Trump didn't cause these things. Trump is the response to what was going on in the country. Trump is the evidence that when the mass culture continues pushing and increasingly "progressive" agenda at some point people push back. He absolutely says things that make me cringe and someone needs to take his Twitter account away from him. However, he didn't cause any of this. He is the inevitable response.
