And the slim but heavily armed majority of this country will definitely see that as legally justified self defense and have no choice but to accept it peacefully! Right?
Let them try. We can't and shouldn't be handcuffed by their potential very illegal action.
Tell that to the people whose insides become outsides as a result of your lofty words.
They're shooting us already, every day.
As usual, the mere threat of potential domestic terrorism wins.
We don't negotiate with terrorists, we hand them the country. And sit quietly when they start destroying things. Like good sheep.
The gravy seals?
They're not the only ones armed, you know.
Who gives a fuck at this point?
Perhaps not "take him out", but I do hope Biden finally grows a pair and goes scorched earth on Trump by generally using the supreme court ruling to make life as difficult as possible for him, for example releasing all the Epstein files. I'm so sick of the Democrats continuing to think they can use reason and the moral highground while fighting a opponent who punches below the belt. Get down and fight dirty for once!
Biden is not manly enough to do that
And you believe that Trump would not retaliate while in office, under the same official immunity?
You should put it all on the line before you ask the same of others.
He's going to retaliate anyway! He said as much! Motherfucker said that he was going to go after the enemy within.
As long as it's done officially lmao.
I don't know if President Vance would be any better.
Vance doesn't have the cult of personality backing him at least.
Why stop there?
I don't think Speaker Johnson would be any better. Nor whoever gets president pro tem of the Senate, nor Secretary of State Elon Musk or whoever. That's how far you'd have to go before you got Secretary of Treasury Janet Yellen, assuming she hasn't been replaced by then. After that it's Secretary of Defense, who would probably be impartial regardless of party registration.
And for any major event, usually at least one or two of the top people are kept in a secure, undisclosed location, to prevent a decapitation strike.
They can get some too.
Worse, it would be the NEW Speaker, who is (presumed to be) Rick Scott.
I suspect it's what people like Musk and Peter Thiel actually want. Vance is more predictable and easily controllable than Trump.
Biden will pee his diapers and save his own ass. He is no one's hero. It's the boomer way.
And Vance
Instance admins are legally responsible for everything posted on their instance.
If they don't remove calls for violence, they can risk going to prison.
Also, it shows up in the mod log for me.
