    Just some poor homeless guy with "mental health" issues living in a van.

    He's not homeless anymore, there's a vacancy at a federal prison, just for him.

    Plus a parking spot 'liberated' someplace near an Autozone in southern Florida, all thanks to the excellently coordinated efforts of numerous law enforcement entities led by the FBI!

    That's not really the issue. The issue is that the complete incompetent infesting the White House is creating an environment for this. He's inciting violence which should not be tolerated. He continues to divide the country and damage institutions critical to American democracy. Let's not forget that trump has been attacking the FBI for well over a year and without their expertise and leadership this week, this guy could have seriously harmed one or more persons. Investigations need to be held into trump's continued violent rhetoric and his attack on American values. I'm sick and tired of the culture he's creating...its sick, its inhumane, its indecent and mostly its anti-American. We need leadership at the top...but more important we need an actual human being capable of decency at the top.

    both parties have had plenty of nutcases over the years - and as I am sure you know, we even had a Conservative Christian mass shooter on this board posting for awhile

    That's one incident but the right wing is responsible for far, far more. Simply look at the data https://www.politifact.com/truth-o-...k-data-domestic-terrorism-and-whos-behind-it/ . Whataboutism won't work here...neither will deflection...so just stop. The very clear difference here is that trump, the person who is pretending to be president, is INCITING VIOLENCE....no left wing leader is doing that. He is openly talking about body slamming....about hitting people...he talked about using your 2nd amendment rights...he's talking about locking up his opponents. And he unfortunately used the Russians to cheat him into the highest office in the land...so he has more responsibility for his actions than any other person in the country. And he should be investigated...he is inciting violence and crime.

    Oh for crying out loud, you have a low threshold for hyperbole.

    And by the way, moron trump has BY NAME gone after every single person that was sent a bomb. Please send the link of media of any Progressive Leader calling out Steve Scalise's name for a personal attack...I'll wait. If you can't do it, I'm going to ignore you for trolling...but I'll give you a bit of time to find that link first.

    yep, thank God that one was such a idiot too, or who know how many people could of been harmed, the ones we really have to worry about is the nuts that are experienced with guns and\or explosives - that is a deadly combination, crazy combined with knowledge of deadly weapons, look how much damage a small group off 911 terrorists did, sadly suicidal people can do a great deal of damage

    And you have a low threshold for leadership and basic human decency. Its amazing to me how your ilk continues to justify the hatred, racism, misogyny and violence of someone with the intelligence level of a toddler. Really?!? trump is your standard for leadership...that's what you'll sell your soul to follow. Its honestly pathetic. I honestly am not sure if there is any level to which trump cultists will not sink. Every day is a new low.

    I'm all for taking guns away from unstable people. No one with the mentality of the person that shot Steve Scalise should have had a gun. That's why I support only gun control candidates. But none of that has anything to do with this incident and the fact that trump is a total incompetent who is responsible for inciting violence.

    What does that make?

    About 1000 times that you've used that same tired reference?:bored:

    Have you ever even considered new material?

    Or are you just going to defend Trump-inspired Domestic Terrorism?

    I'm still waiting for the link showing the Liberal leader who from a podium mentioned Steve Scalise by name and targeted him for a potential violent act....

    Its funny too...because they never mention the woman run over in Charlottesville by right-wing extremists that trump inspired and defended.

    There is a direct link between trump and violence...period. And the cultists are spinning in circles like cowards rather than own up to what their dear leader is responsible for.

    They started the propaganda before they even caught the guy.

    I don't understand how cops didn't stop this guy for covering his passenger window. How did he even drive safely in that van?

    But what else can they do?

    They are totally dumbfounded by any online discussion that doesn't involve 1000 posts a day about The Caravan.

    Its far more insidious than that though. They have gotten to the point where they will justify ANYTHING...its dangerous and disturbing. Before they even had data or caught this guy, they had already 100 fake news stories about him being a Democrat or a Sander's supporter...or the bombs being a hoax or fakes, etc, etc. If you've ever read a book about the mentality of pre-WWII Germany and what some Germans knew about and excused, you'll see similarities that will make you uncomfortable. This is the beginning stages of fascism....justifying and excusing atrocities committed against other human beings...even American citizens.

    This is what trump is doing to the country and the people falling for it don't have the courage and decency to stand up to it. Its pathetic and sad....

    So yea, that Steve Scalise link isn't coming...and that's because no Liberal leader is openly targeting individuals for violent acts like trump is.

    Bottom line, trump is directly responsible for this...you can't deflect it...whataboutism won't work.

    And the difference between liberals and new republicans is that Liberals wouldn't tolerate a leader that was openly calling for violence.

    Bye Felicia...

    Trumpies would continue to support Trump even if he burned their houses down.

    Trumpies don't care if Trump is fomenting Domestic Terrorism.

    Many Trumpies ARE Domestic Terrorists, or would be but terrorism requires you to do more than shout at your television, post on the Internet, buy more guns and write emails to your Senator condemning Socialized Medicine while having your kidneys dialyzed under Medicare

    agree, I do not blame Trump directly, but his hate message is being heard

    usually the party in power tries to take the high road.... not Trump

    that looked up to Trump like a father figure, or maybe a cult leader?
