    Two different things. The first is a joke the second is dead serious.

    "Of course"? According to what definition? The same one that says that suicide are bombers "cowards"?

    No, you DO NOT.

    B.S. with capital letters.

    Quite the trick considering he had no physical or internal trauma and made it all the way back to his office just fine.

    Probably the worst pain I've ever felt... and I felt it for hours.

    Then I had to do it every year to be able to instruct the course. Made for some funny videos.

    True. But I think what causes this position is that it is reported that Sicknick had no head injuries. Hence no fire extinguisher. Whether it is true or not I don't know. But I would tend to believe it before I would believe government.

    Perhaps one day we will see a death certificate. I doubt we will see a ME report because i doubt that an autopsy ever occurred. It appears that the body was cremated almost immediately after death.

    They are terrorists in that they tried to terrorize people in this case Senators, Congressmen, and the star from oerforming legal activity. That is akin to terrorists who attempt to disrupt a population from performing their normal activity such as business commerce, or education.

    Trump's Terrorists fit right into that definition.

    Still I do not buy into any QANONIsh conspiracy about Sicnicks death.
    Trump's Terrorists cause so much damage yo life and property that it would be senseless to go QANONish. Remember the one most important fact that the government was under Trumps control until Jan 20th. Why would Trumps toadies try to falsify the trigger and or cause of death??

    I absolutely believe that some Trump supporters are sane, non-violent and civil people. However, there are clearly some that don't fit those descriptions. Throw a scapegoat in the mix in the hopes of escaping affiliation with the extremists.

    No, people need protection from bears.
    How about a compromise, if you are caught carrying bear spray at a protest you get arrested for carrying an offensive weapon. Same with tasers, baseball bats, axe handles or any other possible weapon.
    Being in possession of a weapon at a protest makes you a rioter.

    If 100's of people were outside your house chanting "hang Thingamabob" I would class that as terrorism

    I do like the beach and spent tons of time at the shore. Even every stateside Air Force base I was stationed at where on the shore. Myrtle Beach was the best. We used to go to the coast of Maine every summer vacation was going to retire there since an old couple in my wife's family offered to sell their summer place in Maine right on the water to us but it hit at a point in our lives that I was not financially free. 70 % of the males in my family get skin cancer before age 50. An uncle and a couple cousins died from skin cancer they had a very bad type. I live virtually sourrounded by woods.

    There was no evidence of trauma, police told the family it was a stroke. Trump attackers are just looking for anything they can stick on him.

    Like a TASER police officers are test against pepper spray to insure they are not allergic. Pepper spray is not harmful to humans or animals. He died hours later from a stroke.

    I would be careful with something like that. I interpret the 2nd amendment as an open reference to what "arms" means. The way the Constitution is written it gives us the right to possess anything from an Abrams tank to nuclear weapons to a surplus Nike Zeus mussel we could convert to carry a nuclear warhead.

    The 2nd says that our right to carry arms shall not be infringed.

    You very clearly do not understand what the term "terrorist" means.
    That makes two people who do not understand what the term "terrorist" means.

    Well, enjoy your violent protests then I guess.
    Maybe ask yourself why only 2 other nations have the right to bear arms. Mexico and Guatemala.

    if Biden invites them and tells them to march somewhere to overturn an election he lost in 2024.... sure

    Trump's mistake was not keeping them at arms length... Trump put himself in the middle of it

    Trump's actions as the insurrection was happening was also damning

    We went from pepper spray to "bear spray" quite quickly... Your evidence it was "bear spray"?

    Terrorism is the threat of harm whether that harm happens or not. Much like a military drone that bombed a house in a village but still flying daily over that village and never knowing it it's your home is the next target. 100's of people outside your house chanting "hang Thingamabob" is terrorism
