Acts of violence/confrontations on elected officials

[bucfanclw]

So anyone got any more examples? Beto publically denounced the harassment or Cruz (which he should) and even said Cruz deserved respect (eeehhh, but I get it).

[Buc2]

So anyone got any more examples?

Here's one from London.

A recent episode involving Senator Ted Cruz and his wife.

Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi confronted by protesters outside a movie theater this past June.

So you've got 3. One I mentioned in the post you quoted, and one from another country. I can see why this epidemic required a new thread.

Someone’s turning up to 11


Lol

[deltbucs]

it was a good thought...i like getting topics out of the mega thread and into their own...maybe people will stop the nonsense soon and this thread can serve a purpose

While that happening is doubtful, I will remain hopeful.

HA! This thread made it exactly zero comments before someone turned it into R vs D. Welcome to the political forum!

[Ken Carson]

In the past 10 years, both parties have had congressional representatives gunned down. This shouldn’t be a partisan issue. There are crazy people out there. Those people can easily convince themselves to harm people they disagree with.

Donald Trump is wrong. Maxine Waters is wrong. Anyone who feels like it’s more important to ascribe blame to a political party for this kind of stuff rather than addressing the individual cases of unacceptable speech by elected officials is wrong.

Acts of violence/confrontations on elected officials

[Zarniwoop]

SD if best treated like a few others on this board - completely ignored

[Zarniwoop]

As the national debate over violent rhetoric rages among politicians, pundits and President Trump, the Republican candidate for governor in Pennsylvania offered the latest case study in partisan rancor on Friday when he threatened to “stomp all over” the Democratic incumbent’s face with his golf spikes.

https://www.yahoo.com/news/gop-candidat ... 26572.html









I'm not too sure this guy realizes golf went to soft spikes like 20 years ago

[mdb1958]

Its not anywhere near even and anyone that pretends that way should be ashamed.

[Buc2]

You are correct, but that’s not the PC view so we can’t say it without inviting ridicule.

[Zarniwoop]

You are correct, but that’s not the PC view so we can’t say it without inviting ridicule.

By definition, supporters of the party that ISN'T in power are going to complain more and act out more.

It seems like a no-brainer to accept. Yet some people still have a hard time with it.


Likewise, as I have mentioned many times, every president in my adult lifetime has been treated worse then the one before...it isn't a party thing...it's a fact. Obama was treated and talked about worse than Bush II. Bush II was treated worse than Clinton. Clinton was treated worse than Bush I. And Trump is treated worst of all.

Same goes with idiocy from the populace...it grows worse with every new administration and will likely continue in that manner.

And same goes with the violent rhetoric and actions...it is getting worse...it will continue to in all likelihood. If the Dems get control of Presidency, Senate and House, it will come from R's. When it was mentioned, it used to be condemned by all officials, regardless of party. Now we have officials from both parties supporting harassment and failing to denounce it.



I invite ridicule of my position

Maybe I’ve just forgotten, but I don’t recall anywhere near this level of violence during the entirety of Obama’s time in office.

[Zarniwoop]

That's why I said it's getting worse with every president

With Obama it was mainly rhetoric. We had some random stuff here and there but nothing too bad.

Now it seems like attempted intimidation is in vogue.

[NYBF]

With Obama it was mainly rhetoric.

Yes. That was it.

Far-left activists associated with Antifa and other radical hate groups attacked the Republican Party headquarters in New York City late Thursday evening; vandalizing the historic building and warning the incident was “merely the beginning.”

The New York GOP released shocking images immediately following the assault; writing “The New York Republican New York City headquarters at the Metropolitan Republican Club was physically vandalized last evening with broken windows, spray-paint and more.”

100% against it.


I'm more than OK with noticing what is working well in other countries and considering to adopt those things here.

I'm completely against signing any treaty that gives away our national sovereignty (whether it be economic, environmental or even militarily).
