So was marching him through a crowded parking garage where any idiot could take a shot at him.

They thought he had assassinated the President of the United States. They probably weren’t too worried about protecting him too much.

They would be the dumbest people on earth if they weren’t too worried about protecting him.

Dead men don’t talk.

What the hell is that‽

this is a clip from the 1977 Movie “Kentucky Fried Movie”. This skit is about a John F. Kennedy assassination board game.

I think pretty much everything he said was demonstrably false.

I am pretty sure it is that Lee himself was not pro secession, but he could either make war against the country or against his own home state.

I have to say that if I were in a position where I either had to fight against the USA or fight against South Jersey and Philly, I don’t think I could chose to make war on South Jersey and Philly.

There’s a gap between reluctant treason and honor.

To him, it might have felt like treason either way. He was either going to commit treason on his country or his home state.

How do we know that he actually felt this way at all?

…That’s a serious question, not a rhetorical one.

research? It is also logical. He was from Virginia, a state that was seceding, he was also an officer in the United States Army. It would not be surprising if he felt conflicted.

But if it is in fact documented . . .

Now there are saying the truck driver in NY attack shouted “Allahu Akbar!”

It’s a trap!

This is not funny. In case you didn’t know, an attack has occurred in NYC. 8 people are dead.

Satire isn’t always tasteful. People get murdered all the time, drawing to attention the supposed Jihadi intentions behind this one is a timely distraction from your corrupt politics and an invitation for copy cat violence… Literally a trap!

Unfortunately people do get murdered all the time, but an attack like this does not happen all the time(I certainly hope it do not become routine). I wasn’t trying to distract from my country’s political problems and corruptions. I was just talking about an attack that happened today who that quote indicates who was behind it. How this invites copy cat violence, I do not know.

Its a sad factor of mass shootings and crimes like this one that the perpetrators are seeking infamy to conclude their unregarded life. By publicising the supposed religious angle to these murders it does give people a hook to build their murder/suicide delusions on. “I’ll make them remember me”, “I’m a soldier killing for an honourable greater good” It’s all bunk. If you are duped into killing a passer by in the street or in a trench on a muddy battlefield humanity is lessened. We fail these people and in failing lose more to violence. Meanwhile Mr Orange can carry on pretending to be in charge of events.

President Donald Trump, less than 24 hours after a 29-year-old Uzbek national allegedly drove a truck down a bike path and killed at least eight people, blamed Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and Democrats for immigration policies he claims allowed the suspect to enter the United States.

In a series of tweets on Wednesday morning, Trump turned his focus from comforting those impacted in New York and focused on advocating for the tougher immigration laws that defined his 2016 campaign.

“The terrorist came into our country through what is called the “Diversity Visa Lottery Program,” a Chuck Schumer beauty,” Trump tweeted. “I want merit based.”

Minutes later, he added: “We are fighting hard for Merit Based immigration, no more Democrat Lottery Systems. We must get MUCH tougher (and smarter).”

Asshole.

Correction: asshole and idiot.

Actually, the Gang of 8, including @SenSchumer, did away with the Diversity Visa Program as part of broader reforms. I know, I was there

^ & ^^ what a moron. so when its racism there is blame on both sides, but when it is terrorism the blame is on democrats?
