    This thread is a **** show.
    Sending bombs like this is disgusting and I am confident BATF will find out who sent them. Actions like this are not even close to acceptable or defensible.

    What we know at this point is that the bombs are probably linked (pretty obvious). We don't know who sent them and their motive. This could be political or it could be someone trying to settle a personal score.

    What I have noticed is that there are some here calling for the right to condemn the violence on the right while condoning or ignoring the violence on the left. Now the shoe is on the other foot. The right is condoning or ignoring the incident here while blaming the left for their violence. Y'all need to get your **** together.

    Just saying the democrats are capable of anything in an election. Notice how the news shifted from covering the caravan which the dems were eerily silent about? All of a sudden this hits the news supposedly targeting just the left which of course would shift everyone's sympathy to them. I mean look how they twisted and worked hard to destroy Kavanaugh shifting sympathy to Ford who had ZERO evidence to corroborate her story? I mean they almost pulled it off too despite her own best friend couldn't remember any of it.

    Could be a radical that sent these bombs and if so that will come out soon. If not and they don' t find the guy BEFORE election day or ever, then you can safely bet money the left was behind it.

    It is. Yes, I do know this. So when the progressive fascist that did this is found, due process will judge their acts. See how cool that is? As opposed to "off to the gulags" which is the original assertion provided by the poster. I know, all that "stuff" gets in the way of your cool narrative, but it is the unfortunate truth....

    It isn't "parsing." It is practicing basic literacy and critical thinking skills. "Go low" does not mean literally, physically going low. "Go high" does not mean literally, physically going high. It takes a special kind of willing self-deception to understand that every other word he spoke was non-literal and then play make-believe that the word "kick" was literal. Should you decide to rejoin reality, Holder has already explained exactly what he meant -- something that native English speakers should have known from the beginning, but he explained it for those refusing to implement junior high level reading comprehension/critical thinking skills.

    Nobody is making that claim, so your strawman fails bigly...

    Five of them are on the record. Do you have any more names you would like to share?

    Strawmen galore in this thread. :roll:

    I did not compare the incitement & consent to the acts - that's something you are trying to do. I said the incitement & consent encourages and invariably leads to the acts. None of this is new or unique and anyone who has ever picked up and read a History book already knows this.

    Because you are blinded by hate for the opposing party.

    I hope that gets better for you someday.

    Why does blaming Trump seem suspicious to you? There are posts on this thread that, within minutes, started to blame "false flags" and various democrats for suspicious packages mailed to democrats.

    It's called insanity.

    I feel sorry for them though.

    Both sides play dirty and both sides have a violent fringe. There is no evidence of the "liberals sent the bombs to themselves to get sympathy" theory. My theory is that the person or people who sent bombs to Soros, Clinton, and Obama do not like Soros, Clinton, or Obama very much. As my Dad would say, it isn't rocket surgery.

    A political ploy. Why sending packages to people who are out there either campaigning or on tour? No one was at home.And they still have SS protection so it was going to be intercepted.What's the point? Perhaps someone is trying to play a victimhood card again.

    Yup, the progressive fascist who sent bombs to liberal leaders and a liberal-leaning news organization. Because he wanted to re-create a Reichstag fire... which was a false flag set up by right wing extremists to frame communist leaders. Makes sense.

    It's a shame I can't pull quotes from that far back. You and Trinity were a delight with all the conspiracy theories you two threw out there.

    There is a reason that belief in conspiracy theories are often associated with morons.

    k. WTF? man? Who on the right is condoning this? Who? Cite the poster, cite the journalist. BS no one here is condoning anything. The only folks playing fast are folks, like you, who suddenly come to the room insisting, like you have, that you "know" things. The correct party with be the Secret Service, as they will have jurisdiction, working in conjunction with several agencies, including the FBI and perhaps ATF. You make an assumption that the incidents are "linked" without evidence. You assert a possible motive, and then you launch into your corrosive blame whine.

    Nope, not having it. About the only thing you got right is that these incidents are neither acceptable or defensible. As a voice of the right here you now have evidence that your BS assertion is just that. BS>

    The POTUS asked someone at his rally to punch someone in the face and he would pay for their attorney!

    The issue of incitement was raised and a conversation ensued. Furthermore, CNN reported that "a suspicious package containing a pipe bomb that was addressed to the White House was intercepted at Joint Base Bolling in Washington, DC" (Post #31 above).

    OK... then post the 5 that are on the record, what they said that you claim provokes "incitement & consent"... that cannot be that hard, since you have a firm number and names?? I'll help you out...

    Booker -
    Clinton -
    Hirono -
    Holder - I assume this is the infamous 'When they go low, we kick them".... you can confirm you consider this is the line that will provoke incitement and invariably lead to somebody mailing bombs...
