    Main point being that your both right. Your right that right now it looks like a trump supporter and Robert is right to say hold your horses though bringing up there are many ways he could be in possession of that van and the stickers the same

    You said he supports Trump.

    What does that have to do with making crude alleged bombs from low grade black powder that to date none worked?

    What does support for Trump do for this case?

    You can try to rationalize this Robert,but my question is WHY?
    Issue at hand Robert----Mail Bombs sent to Democrats
    There was just a news conference with FBI Director & Attorney General----Sessions stated " Suspect appears to be partisan"
    A question posed to FBI Director Wray " When was the POTUS notified that you had a suspect",Wray evaded the question, why,you ask----
    Now one would expect that the answer would be "immediately",as they had bomb mailers identity "yesterday",well,mmmm,if trump was notified yesterday, then why would he put out the tweet this morning still " intimating" it was a Democratic ploy?----What a despicable man----
    So,again, when will even you get to the point when you say ENOUGH-----
    Vote & Vote Blue---Get this idiot out----

    After this MAGA BOMBER attack, anyone wearing one of those idiot hats will be looked upon with suspicion. Up where I live, there are a bunch of toothless tatooed meth heads running around in those hats with vans and trucks all stickered up like this imbecile. Hopefully, the police will start keeping an eye on these birds...

    Where did I dismiss your half a dozen posts? I just merely pointed out anyone who pulls these kinds of things is a fuse short. It seems people are trying to make excuses now that it turns out to be a Trump supporter. I'm just saying, calling the guy a nut isn't an excuse as ANYONE who does this crap is a nut. That's sort of inherent.

    The Trump part is because of the many different threads and posts stating it was probably a Dem doing this.

    It provides, completely and conclusively, the motive.

    Was that a serious question? I mean...really?

    Then why are you trying to make an issue about this one being a Trump supporter?

    Could not have been much support given we have no way to show the bombs even worked.

    Legally, that claim would be suppressed as non relevant information/evidence.

    Because of the numerous posts saying that it was probably a Dem. I just thought I’d set the record straight. Especially considering how many people complain about fake news. Saying it’s a Dem when it’s not would be fake news, right?

    That isn't the issue. The issue is the Orange Fraud's, and right wing media's, violent, angry, dishonest rhetoric. Do you think it's a coincidence hate crimes, right wing extremism, anti-government sentiment, distrust of institutions, expressions of racism, anti-gay/transgender actions, are up since the Idiot-in-Chief began spewing his divisive message to the country?

    You know Lee, despite your hostility and anger issues, I for one would like to see you support the above post.

    Your talk is much more severe than anything Trump says.

    How then can you be critical of how Trump speaks?

    Do Trump Tweets Spur Hate Crimes?
    Study makes strong case that president’s Twitter activity encourages anti-Muslim crimes

    https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/do-trump-tweets-spur-hate-crimes1/

    The election of Donald Trump introduced the American public to a number of firsts when it comes to politics, one of which is a president who regularly communicates via Twitter. Trump’s use of social media has been unusual for a president and also the subject of sharp criticism for the inflammatory content he sometimes posts. While we know that Trump’s Twitter audience has continued to increase dramatically since his election, currently hovering at over fifty million followers, we know far less about how much influence his tweets have on the way his followers think and behave.

    A disturbing new paper by researchers Karsten Müller and Carlo Schwarz of the University of Warwick suggests that Donald Trump’s Islamic-related tweets may be directly linked to an increase in anti-Muslim hate crimes over the past few years. If Trump’s tweets have, in fact, played a role in spurring hate crimes, then social media may be playing an even more powerful role in people’s lives than previously thought.
    ...............................................................................................................................................
    If it's not to difficult a task, perhaps the minions could put two and two together and come to a reasonable hypothesis on whether Don's violent rhetoric has had an impact.

    Reporting was incomplete when I wrote the title for the post. I was trying not to jump to conclusions. OK with you?

    Making America Hate Again? Twitter and Hate Crime Under Trump

    https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=3149103

    Abstract
    Social media has come under increasing scrutiny for reinforcing people's pre-existing viewpoints which, it is argued, can create information "echo chambers." We investigate whether social media motivates real-life action, with a focus on hate crimes in the United States. We show that the rise in anti-Muslim hate crimes since Donald Trump's presidential campaign has been concentrated in counties with high Twitter usage. Consistent with a role for social media, Trump's Tweets on Islam-related topics are highly correlated with anti-Muslim hate crime after, but not before the start of his presidential campaign, and are uncorrelated with other types of hate crimes. These patterns stand out in historical comparison: counties with many Twitter users today did not consistently experience more anti-Muslim hate crimes during previous presidencies.

    Did they jail the author of the catcher in the rye yet? We all know his book was influential to Mark David Chapman’s assassination of John Lennon!

    A minority from New York is a typical trump supporter? You have a Source on Trump support demographics?

    That's EXACTLY WHY I became a Trump supporter. Idiot thugs kept Trump from his right to assembly and free speech rights during the 2016 primaries in Chicago.

    IDIOT DEMS want to STOP FREE SPEECH!
