Trump Shot Himself?

Conspiracy theories, rumors and ranting

Lies fly as fast as bullets

You would think that people would be able to notice that dividing an entire nation with hate, dispute, rage, and rants would lead to violence.

It happened during Lincoln’s time. And Kennedy’s. And Reagan.

What’s with all the violent rhetoric?

I think when the Jesus appointed martyr arose from the depths on his supporters in a tight lovely nest of secret service heroes, he was fist bumping and screaming: “Fight. Fight. Fight.”

(or was he, it looked like yelling profanity when seen with no sound)

Is using the word “Fight” more violent than alternatives? What about chanting “Freedom” like Braveheart with a orange make up instead of blue? Or he could yell: “We’re strong” or “Let’s roll.” Or “I am tough,” or “Guns can’t hurt the good guys,” or something like that.

At least one innocent person attending, and the shooter are dead. Is this a good sign that we need more violence, and especially more guns in America?

I think they will say we do. You know, to preserve the precious life of our heroes, who necessarily require more secret service agents than your fifth grader at Random…
