President Donald Trump

President Donald Trump

I assume it's still acceptable to have a Trump thread in a Politics forum?

So this is an obvious lie - basically aimed at

housenuts is pulling the classic gymnastic maneuver of saying that his personal view is not that of said conservative crowd, therefore he is absolved of acknowledging the point. So uhhh, checkmate or whatever.

Of course never mentioned until this very incident when he needs it.


I love how you refuse to answer.

Never mentioned that I don't support guns? I'd be willing to wager a decent amount I've posted that on 2p2 well before this. Years ago. Probably multiple times.


by housenuts

Thread disagrees with you. He was unarmed and you're victim blaming.

The fact he had a gun, which he was legally permitted to carry, played no role in his death.

I'm not saying that to support your stupid ass gotcha attempt, for the record. It's probably 50/50 or better they shoot him anyway.

Thanks for the support nonetheless.


It doesn't support your gotcha attempt. Like I said, it's probably 50/50 or better they shoot him anyway.

Thanks for making it clear you aren't trying to be intellectually honest, which everyone already knew anyway.

I did answer it.

Now explain how when agent 2 sees agent 1 secure his gun and pushes agent 1 out of the way and shoots him four times in the back, it is a shooting in self-defense.

No, that the conservative position on guns as a defense against tyranny is so dumb that even you disagree with it.


It's a stupid gotcha attempt anyway. The only correct answer is nobody knows.

It's not a gotcha attempt.

And yes nobody knows, but I think we can all agree having a gun increases the likelihood.

This was my initial post on the topic.
This is the traditional left position.

Thread not so sure on that.

Who the hell cares? Focusing on this instead of the fascist pigs gives the same energy as "well what was she wearing?" That's why you are being treated like this. And why you deserve it.

It blows my mind that people can be such consistently bad posters. Like, you have to just randomly be ok sometimes, just by pure chance sometimes, right?

The guy is a loser. Total disingenuous garbage human being. Put him on ignore.

I've had him on ignore for probably a year. The problem is when people engage with him and fill up entire pages and quote him, I see it and sometimes I click view post to get the context.

But yeah, agree.

Yes this whole conversation could've ended as follows:

"Having a weapon makes bad things more likely to happen"

"Yes, that is the traditional left view"

Ah cool, we all agree.

Instead of bunch of Karen's came in and wanted to light their hair on fire about that comment.

I'll assume that you agree that it was not in self-defense and thus not a justified shooting.

I'll answer your question again: being that dude moved the other agent out of the way once he saw the gun was secured and then followed through and shot him four times, I'd say the only reason why he would have had a less chance of being shot in this situation if he had not brought a gun with him is because the story would have been harder to justify.

I think they're in good shape now that no one in the administration cares whether it's a good shoot or not.

Yes I've said many times it wasn't justified.

I don't know what the shooter was thinking, but I'd say on a standard of an officer acting reasonably, it shouldn't meet the self defence threshold.

Another thing that could've ended it would've been you saying "but we should really focus on the scumbags that kill people and the evil administration that's behind it rather than doing anything we can to blame the victim."

But you're right it's everyone else's fault.

You can fathom no idea what a dude was thinking when he decided to shoot an unarmed dude that he had previous altercations with over the last couple of weeks?


I'm not even trying to argue. I posted something that you guys agree with, and you decided to argue it. It's insane. I'm not even sure what the alleged ulterior motive is.

He was killed because he had a gun.

a) self-defence - not objectively/subjectively reasonable
b) ice officers think this gives them cover to shoot

You dead ass, bro? You don't know why a dude shoots a gun at someone 4 times in quick succession when he knows he's unarmed, his arms are restrained, and he has two doses of pepper spray in his eyes?


He was killed because the administration is facist, deploying troops to terrorize cities that didn't vote for Trump, and found enough gullible stupid fascist lackeys to carry out his bidding. And also partially because there are dumbasses out there not mad at all about that and trying to blame the fing victims.

Who is blaming the victims? Such a ridiculous stretch to say he was killed because he had a gun = blaming the victim.

George Floyd was killed because he's black = blaming victim, amirite?

You can't be that stupid. You just can't.

Was one of those a choice? Think about this one carefully dumbass.

Just when I think you can't get worse, too.
