Off Topic The Politics Thread

I sympathise with the idea but in a country as polarised as the US I don't see him ever being convicted of anything by a jury not to mention that his lawyers would ensure that they used the system to tie the case up in knots for years. He would have lots of air time to spout his bollocks. Personally I think America is in for a hard time and the best thing they could do would be to amass a full dossier of his public pronouncements and actions and recycle those endlessly when the **** hits the fan. Only when a majority of his supporters see that he is in fact responsible for their woes rather than their messiah will he effectively be consigned to history. However he has set the precedent on dispensing with convention time and again so should expect no pardon for any crimes committed by him.

 

How many Western Christian suicide bombers are you aware of?

 

That's part of the answer. And Western non-Muslim suicide bombers are as rare as hen's teeth (except in Yorkshire, apparently).

 

True. They just tend to shoot people instead. I’m not going to knock the person who shot this woman for not doing a risk assessment though.

 

He should be doing a risk assessment automatically, and he should have given her a warning imo

 

Probably exclude the thefts, and the alleged pipe bomber who should be hunted down.

Despite the fact that Trump has been in power for the last four years, there's still a huge amount of support for his extreme right kind of politics, by people who felt marginalised and ignored, highly distrustful of previous governments and believing MSM is a grand conspiracy. They believe in revolution against oppressive state, and look back to the Boston Tea Party and 1783 when the Americans saw off the Brits in the War of Independence. Since then, many have stayed heavily armed, ready to resume the revolution.

So, yes, a softly, softly approach by Biden makes good sense, for his presidency and for America.

how many bombs have been set off by white people in the past 100 years? I think there are quite a few. No one says she needs to blow herself up, she could just place a bomb in there

 

this is 100% correct which the MSM and general politics try to ignore

 

I think enough people have said it already, if the woman hadn't been there then she wouldnt have been shot! To discriminate who to shoot with a backpack on, breaking in to Capitol Hill over the colour of their skin is ****ing ridiculous.

 

Im surprised... well I’m not, that the video I posted didn’t get a dozen likes. What a brilliant myth busting argument. Let’s see how many want to disagree with him?

 

She could only do that through stealth. She had security men in front of her and a whole load of armed police behind her. How likely is it that she was hoping to slip through them and plant a bomb from her backpack?

PS Western Christians can be black and white.

 

Give us some odds on the likelihood Goldy

 

Let's just say Guy Fawkes would have had a better chance, rolling barrels of gunpowder over Westminster Bridge and into Parliament through the main entrance

 

Western Muslims can be black or white too

 

Unfortunately the woman is dead. She wouldnt be if she hadn't have broken into that building. It's a silly, tragic loss of life.

 

...so a white Muslim woman infiltrates the Trump supporters and leads them on, with a bomb in her backpack. How many Caucasian Muslim women are you aware of that became suicide bombers?

 

Were the pipe bombs found before or after the shooting

 

Dont know what you're on about kiwi

 

If the pipe bombs and explosives were found after the shooting probably no one was worried about protesters carrying bombs so no need to shoot her
