Oh well, live by the sword, die by the sword." The killing of the drug dealer is tragic but most people aren't going to get worked up about it. There are far too many innocent people who die every day to worry about those that court death.

    I feel the same way about Congress.

    For decades those criminals have sat on their hands while the enslavement of the poor continues. For decades they've held Mexican immigrants in this pseudo-legal place where they can be taken advantage of but they've no legal recourse. Because of the on again off again border policy thousands have died. The same could be said for the completely idiotic wars in the middle east - trillions spent, many thousands died, and all so sugar daddy can get another payout from oil companies and defense contractors. It isn't a Democrat vs. Republican thing - they're all whores.

    So a Congressman got shot, well if he didn't want to get shot he shouldn't have lived his life like a criminal.
    It is wrong, I don't advocate it, but I'm not going to worry about it either.
    so you know this congressman was living his life like a criminal then?


    If you ever voted one of them into office then you are a criminal too. Maybe you should start wearing kevlar too?

      That is the beauty of Congress.
      Because they pass the blame around nobody can be said to be guilty.
      It is always the process, the law, the judge, the opposition across the aisle.

      When 400+ criminals get together and vote on something suddenly it is okay to do horrible things and nobody is guilty.

      Looks like the shooter saw through the nonsense.
      The shooter did the wrong thing, but he does see the truth of the matter.
      Actually YOU put Trump in the White House. He wouldn't have gotten 1% of the vote if it wasn't for the widespread spiritual and cultural devastation caused by progressive policies. There's no "this country" left with your immigration policies, your "allies" are worthless and even more suicidal than you are and democracy is a sick joke that I hope nobody ever thinks about repeating when the current order collapses. - Darth_Executor striking a conciliatory note in Civics 101

          His response was also a crime; he should not have shot anyone at all.

            Out of curiosity... has anyone seen or read anything about a Democrat leader saying maybe it is time to ratchet down the rhetoric? Someone like an Obama, a Clinton, a Pelosi or even a Biden?

            I mean right now there is a play showing where Trump is assassinated every night[1]lot more examples (and Trump hasn't even been president 6 months). Compare all of this to how the left went absolutely apoplectic just because a rodeo clown wore an Obama mask. Nothing more.

              Please, I implore you with all seriousness -- If any politician you have ever supported has ever participated in a "criminal lifestyle" that you believe makes his murder or attempted murder deserved or even "understandable" -- kill yourself forthwith. You are an accomplice.

                How do you make the connection that I'm an accomplice to murder, having done nothing but state an opinion, but Congressmen who...

                1: Send young men and young women into illegals wars for the sake of defense contracts
                2: Leave a border open so Mexicans can be enslaved by big US businesses
                3: Leave a border open so drugs can flow across almost unhindered
                4: <insert dozens of other crimes>

                ..how is it that these Congressmen aren't accomplices?

                Oh, that's right.
                When 400+ people vote it doesn't matter if the issue is horrible/self-serving/criminal/unethical - hey, they voted so it is okay.

                Using the criteria you seem to be operating under it is impossible for the government to commit a crime; that by definition if it is an act of a voting body it cannot be wrong.
                That is ridiculous.

                  Maybe we should get upset about people in need dying instead of getting upset about fat oligarchs catching blowback for criminal behavior.
                  Maybe we need to realize these guys have programmed us to view their murderous behavior as acceptable.

                    I agree with your analysis overall but this shooter did not see the truth of the matter. He just got mad and did bad.

                        Where did anyone come close to saying it was deserved. If understanding the symptoms of the down fall of a nation makes one an accomplice, add me to that. Our federal legislators lie to us routinely and no one thinks any thing of it. We elected a raft of supposedly pro life congressmen who are actively stalling when it comes to defunding Planned Parenthood. Many of them campaigned on this and now sit around with their hands in their pockets. The shooting was evil, as is a whole lot going on in our once great republic. I understand why people can follow through on what the media, Hollywood, et al tell them. If I am an accomplice so be it. I can only trust that God will work it all out according to His will. I trust him even while understanding the situation of the frustrated lost in America.

                            To clarify, all that the rodeo clown did was wear an Obama mask. Nothing more. He had a history of wearing masks of whoever was president at the time but it was only when it was the Obamessiah that caused a sector of our society to become enraged and lose it.

                            One other thing, with the incredibly rare exception those sort of things were said by folks that nobody pays any attention to whereas with the left its a legion of celebutards, MSM personalities and upon occasion prominent politicians -- folks with a big microphone and spotlight.

                              These are nothing compared to what liberals were doing in the Bush era.
                              "As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths." Isaiah 3:12

                              There is no such thing as innocence, only degrees of guilt.
