Explain this one then

Quote by KimmiBeGood
It is interesting to me that everyone is noticeably silent about the need for gun control after this shooting. Quite telling as to how deep the hatred is between parties. Do we not care if a rogue shooter takes a life if it’s someone we don’t like? Then it’s okay? Am I the only one that’s troubled by that. The man who died was a husband and father. But he was a Republican who said things people don’t like, so it’s okay? Is it okay for someone to decide to be judge, jury, executioner for another American? Everyone screams about their rights, but it’s okay to take away another’s right to live outside justice system? That helps what exactly?
A great friend reminded me today not to look at our candidates as the character of our country. Look to my neighbors and community instead to see a lot of good people doing good things that won’t make the news. People who listen to others’ opinions with an open mind and look inward to see how they can make things better.
I know I don’t fit in the Think Tank, so I’ll leave. But so many things I read is fueled by hate, and helps nothing.
He did more than just say mean things, give me a break…
Plus it’s like the baby Hitler dilemma. Would you go back in time to put a pillow over baby Hitler’s face knowing it would save millions of people?

You mean the ear that the camera couldn't actually see, because it was on the dark side of the moon - i mean the other side of his massive head (same thing, really)?
Those cameras in the 60's catching bullets hitting things were not standard TV broadcasting cameras. No matter how well you may remember them.
That's how misdirection works. Very good.

You mean to say there is no definitive footage of something the size of a fingernail travelling up to 1,000m/s, hitting something out of the direct line of site, on a camera that only shoots 30FPS?
Crazy, I would never have thought that.
Apparently though, it only grazed his ear rather than hitting it directly. That's probably why he made his 9am Tee-off the next day, with both ears attached.
Anyone saying it was "staged" needs to get in the bin.
I think a camera would have picked up the ricochet off his rock solid sprayed hair and his ear moving if it was hit lol. I mean the cameras in the 60's could catch bullets hitting things. The secret service is on video telling the camera men to get on the other side of Trump a few minutes before the shooting, I thought that was weird too.
In this vid you can see trump's lifts fly out of his shoes.

The shots could have been real, sacrificing a couple maga cult members, and trump could have bladed his ear or just poured some ketchup on it. Haven't y'all ever seen wrestling? No actual footage of the bullet hitting his ear... a bullet that would have blown it off probably. His ear looks intact.

This wasn't a Sirhan Sirhan style of murder attempt. This was an uber staged secret service special, made for TV and slow motion replays.
I've seen fishermen accidentally hook themselves in their ears while casting multi treble hooked lures - which looked more gnarly than the cut on Trumplets ear.
Do you think the SS were in on actually killing him or setting up a photo-op?
I feel Trump wanted the most ass-kissy culty SS so they were incompetent like everyone else he chooses.

that's what I don't understand - by not saying anything, they're endorsing everything he says.
it's the economy stupid, here is a perfecto opportunity to explain how supply side econ and dumpy's contribution to it.
instead we just bumble along w his painful little lines.
it's a done deal. we'll find out how many he takes with him.
When you realize all the news outlets, even the ones like cnn, are owned by billionaires who don’t want to pay taxes, it starts to make sense.

C'mon my feline friend, you're better than this. Donald Trump is ding dong Cuckoo crazy. The takeaway is that his contender is apparently a nice guy like everyone's grandpa who gets into a proper muddle mixing stuff up, forgetting basic vocabulary and not able to consistently form basic sentences. That's not being unkind, it's just how a lot of old people go. So the takeaway is, the Democrats need a new freaking candidate who is gonna take Trump to the cleaners. D x
It’s a dumb thing to ponder or discuss because that’s not happening. It’s like saying “well we should give every homeless person a house and triple social security!” Ok like that would be great but it’s not happening. Plus I don’t think it’s even a good thing, it’s like saying “well nobody noticed Biden was old up until just now! Holy shit let’s just replace him because the only reason things function is because of Biden up until a couple days ago!” Doesn’t make sense. It’s an administration you’re voting for. Trump was bragging about firing most of his administration…. That doesn’t sound to me like he knows how to put together a competent one. It means he only is interested in putting together an administration that kisses his ass. The democrats aren’t like that. Compare the last 3 Democrat presidents to the last 3 Republican ones and weigh out the positive and negative impacts of all 6. That’s what Americans are voting for.

That's a good point, Felix. However a President isn't just for Christmas. Let's say that the idea of Trump is so repugnant that they vote for Biden as the least worst option and he's returned to office. There's no way he's gonna make another four years, is there?!! And that's a problem isn't it?

People already made up their minds. No matter what Biden does normal people know Trump shouldn't be president. Only a bit over half of the people that watched the last debate tuned in this time. More people watched Inside Out 2.
They're all busy getting drive-thru coffee, filling up their SUVs, eating steaks, going to the gym, buying LEGO, working and watching TV shows in this "third world" country of ours.
