Would you be upset about people suggesting we shoot asylum seekers? When did I suggest we shoot Trump? You didn't. Would you really like me to write a couple of paragraphs explaining the similarities between the two things.

Would you be upset about people suggesting we shoot asylum seekers? Certainly I would and I've insulted Jonksy plenty for saying stuff like that. The point is about black humour and whether it's appropriate to make jokes about it. I think black humour is fine as long as you don't have double standards about it, which is what I'm pointing out here. It's also about intent, some have said Trump should be killed by SEAL team 6 and we know Jonksy really is happy to see asylum seekers dead. If it was just a joke and black humour, I wouldn't mind but the intention behind it informs the "joke" or lack thereof. If you wanted to say something really funny about Trump you'd say something like this If you wanted to say something truly bad taste about asylum seekers, you would say: If an illegal immigrant got in a fight with a sex offender, wouldn't that be alien vs predator?

Maybe, but pretty sure it was you. Also pretty sure it was in that thread SRB started which has been deleted called "triggering the gammons" That's convenient. As far as I can remember, the only thing I said about Jonsky was that he had a Gollywog avatar. I know, that's what I thought, it seems almost too convenient, given who admins here I remember someone posting something about how he's an "odious little shit" and how he's laughing about migrants dying - and it coming from you.

The shooter, it turns out, is a registered Republican. However, he donated to a liberal PAC before he registered as a Republican, presumably to vote in the primary against Trump and stop him. So a loyal Republican who thought Trump was bad news for the country? Define "loyal", everyone has a different definition He may have just handed the election to Trump It's well and good for you guys, but we actually have to live through his presidency

Fair enough. That contradicts Trump's earlier statements like this one LA TimesBanning gun bump stocks increases accuracy but reduces fire rate; you can kill more people quickly with them at short distance, in a crowd. The NRA opposed him on this but he went ahead and pushed it anyway. (There are easy workarounds that still exist, so it was moot) And I believe you've called for violence against more than just convicted killers and rapists, but I'm not going to go searching for those posts on other forums and we all know PoFo UK is gone for good. It did nothing to stop bump firing.
Or rapid firing by normal trigger pulling.
The AR-15 is an accurate well made self loading rifle design that has been copied like mad, because it's good. It's really good at what it does, that's why the M16 and M4 carbine rifles developed from it were adopted by the US military. Far better groupings are possible than with a Ruger Mini 14.
But there are limits to its accuracy and it still requires a human to look down the sights. This assassination attempt was not staged, the killer missed and killed an innocent bystander.
It isn't funny. Someone was killed before security shot dead this sniper.

Possibly, but I do think there'll be conspiracy theories about CIA sharp shooters with cancer who are willing to die for the cause There will be all kinds of conspiracy theories, which is hardly surprising given the location of the shooter.
How on earth does a man with a gun get onto a roof with 130 Metres of Trump? It beggars belief.
Yes I agree. Was a blind eye turned? If so the result is likely to be a win for Trump.

Vinny:

And I never once said the assassination attempt was staged, so why are you insinuating I think it was..?

Define "loyal", everyone has a different definition He may have just handed the election to Trump It's well and good for you guys, but we actually have to live through his presidency I think my point was fairly clear. The guy thinks he's a loyal Republican, but sees Trump as anti American. There's quite a number of those.

I had nothing to do with that thread being deleted. I'd rather it hadn't been. Deleting and locking threads is Tintin's shitty practise.

Fine to make a joke Monte and I don’t like Trump but that is irrelevant to what took place there killing people is not right and you could at least acknowledge that. There are exceptions. Especially in the US where they have the death penalty. The crowd members who got shot, probably rabid supporters of the 2nd. Prepared to sacrifice school children in their worship of guns. It may not be right that they got shot but it is karmic. As for Trump, just because he's got a little nick on his ear doesn't stop him being a complete cunt. He's still a Putin praising, rapist, criminal, wannabe dictator and we mustn't forget that. Because of the fucked up way American politics works this is likely to get him elected in November.
I repeat I don’t like Trump at all but I think old JRR Tolkien sums it up best

What did I say about Jonsky? Are you confusing me with someone else? Maybe, but pretty sure it was you. Also pretty sure it was in that thread SRB started which has been deleted called "triggering the gammons" It wasn't Monte. It was me. And I'll do it again if my demands aren't met.
