    Wow - he think's he's up there with James Bond with the number of times people have tried to kill him.

    7 attempts and no assassination. Guess guns aren’t as deadly as Hog wants us to believe.

    And yet the reposes on this board alone have validated concerns for his safety

    :bored:

    And, the RW is playing right into his hands by giving him the attention that he craves.

    Hogg has Trolling the RW down to a science.

    And, the RW predictably takes the bait.

    Hogg would be very happy to see this thread at PF. Bait taken/RW Trolled.:salute:

    Hopefully, Hogg has a lot of security at Harvard.

    Or y'know, the other possibility - that an attention wh*r* is gonna attention wh*r*.

    Seriously, seven separate assassination attempts and Hogg doesn't even score a Mickey Mouse band-aid for his suffering? Who's out there trying to kill him, Jacques Clouseau?

    I'm quite sure he'd LOVE seeing himself being laughed at, AJ! Teenagers just LOVE that kind of attention!

    In fact, I dearly HOPE he sees this thread! :pc: Perhaps you can drop him a line? :emailsend:

    A second try at another 15 minutes.
    As hard as I try, I can't seem to become concerned.

    Or people like yourself who are busy on the Internet stirring up ***** about him are empowering the nutbag right.

    It has happened numerous times that some hate monger on the net has fired up some knuckle dragging half wit who has then gone out and shot someone

    Pizza anyone?

    Funny how you don’t mention the knuckle dragging half wits who terrorized a pizzeria, forced a CEO to flee Mozilla, threw a press secretary out of a restaurant, terrorized a congressman out of a restaurant, made a ‘rape Melania’ sign, hit people with bike locks, burned down a college campus, shot 5 cops in Dallas, shot 2 more in NYC, and on and on.

    You lefties are brutally violent and intolerant. Your peace signs and tie dyed shirts are a thing of your drug induced past.

    Of course, because some nutjob is reading our posts here at PF. You better alert the mods and have this site shut down STAT!

    Y'know - somehow, I'm thinking that you felt a bit differently when Kathy Griffen was holding a bloodied Trump mask. That was just Freedom of Speech and not a call to arms, right?

    Geez, it really is simple when it comes to this child. Hogg is trying to get attention again. The nitwit had faded from public consciousness - everyone here had forgotten about him - and then he willfully makes a ridiculous statement playing the (imaginary) victim having survived seven (imaginary) assassination attempts so he can get back in the news. Not sure how they failed - perhaps someone miscalculated the amount of poison they put on his Hello Kitty action figure? Maybe the arsenic on his lip-liner was too weak?

    The guy who is called a shooting survivor even though he wasn’t there. By comparison you and I are 911 survivors.

    Annnnnnd you conveniently ignored my reference to what is popularly known as “pizzagate”

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pizzagate_conspiracy_theory

    Do you have any idea how people are radicalised? It is not that difficult you know. All you have to do is make something appear a norm I.e. hatred of “gun control freaks” and then wrap it in a conspiracy and generously spinkle on lots of outrage

    This thread has all of those elements

    Where do those incidents fit in this graph?

    Yep, because it's nothing more than a red herring I gave it all the attention it warranted. None.

    I mean, unless you want me to bookmark this thread so that the next time - oh, I dunno, some celebrity starts talking trash about wanting Trump offed and the left starts defending it, I can use you as a reference as to why we shouldn't discuss it on a political forum.

    Since I can safely assume you wouldn't want that, I'm gunna stick to discussing a fool teenager - ah, but I repeat myself - deliberately making waves so he can get attention. Y'know, much like many OTHER teenagers do, the ol' "Looks-a-me" thing.

    And yet it was proof positive that a person can be radicalised by immersion in a forum such as this. But look at the elements here

    1) conspiracy theorising
    2) de humanisation of target (he deserves what he gets)
    3) normalisation of hate type responses where posters are actually decrying the fact he has not yet been harmed
    4) outrage - the “how very dare he” is ringing around the forum.

    The only thing missing is suggestin that someone “do” something about this to trigger a response

    Sad part is that the responses so far have been mild compared to previous threads

    Well, then. You've found your niche. Start banning all political forums today! Or at least delete the posts that you disagree with. I'm - SURE there's a name for that but don't let that bother you. Meanwhile, I'm gonna actually discuss the topic and not your red herrings. Now if you want to keep deflecting go right ahead but you're doing it without me.

    Anyway, speaking of Hogg - I looked up these assassination attempts and I'm pretty sure several of them occurred while he was under sniper fire in Bosnia.

    At times you can be a cold of heart and outright cruel poster to the utterly deserving. Very nice!
