llmart
(15,536 posts)and no disrespect to your post, but I know for a fact that these sorts of posters have been around since the 1990's when President Clinton was in office. I know from attending a local gun show (the one and only time I ever went to one of those), and when I saw those I immediately understood that this was a portion of our populace that I never knew was so abhorrent.
I just watched the documentary on the Oklahoma City bombing on Netflix and it brought back so many memories about the rise of the militia groups in our country and how the angry white male syndrome evolved. Those of us who are sane MUST continue to speak out against the hate and do every single thing we can to get our country back!

IOW, the VRWC, for which Hillary was derided when she dared describe the real world
It really is all about the gatekeepers in the MSM, corporate shills who represent the intransigent forces who resist progressive expression at ALL cost

We disagree with Secretary Clinton on many things.
But, I've known her for a long time.
She is a good person that loves this country.

(544 posts)this is nothing new. There are all sorts of obscene-type targets with public figures. The most common was probably the Osama Bon Laden targets (or generalized "middle east terrorist" ) but I've seen Obama targets, Hillary targets, etc.
All I can say, "Some people suck and there's nothing you can do to change it". I just ignore crazy people.

(15,220 posts)Shouldn't the Secret Service be notified? Hillary is still, after all the former first lady and still wife of a former, living President. Does she not still have protection from the Secret Service because of that capacity, regardless of whether she was/is/will be/won't be a candidate or office holder???

(10,173 posts)these were popular all year last year.
So when Hillary called them fucking deplorable I gave no fucks.
And she was kind enough to NOT label them ALL deplorable but their brains are so addled they didn't want to hear that -
Also I'd like to thank some in cable news media for finding ingenuous ways to rationalise this sick bullshit as "economic anxiety"... y'all can suck a bag of dicks.

I'd like to ask any of them, "what has Hillary Clinton done to chip away at your gun right's".

(5,693 posts)Having won the election and being in control of all three branches of government has created a vacuum of sorts for them. Luckily for them the Limbaughs, Hannitys, and Breitbarts have a readily available recipient of their ire. Good old reliable Hillary Clinton.
Unfortunately, their focus has broadened (aided by their hate mongers on TV, radio, and internet) to Liberals and Progressives in general. Unless someone puts a stop to this, there will be bloodshed.

(50,557 posts)Folks, cool your jets. Hopefully all of us can see the difference between shooting at a piece of paper and a real person. These targets are absolutely disgusting, but there's really not much we can do about it.
Well...maybe there is. They sell toilet paper with Trump's face on every sheet. What would be the harm in a bunch of us slipping into a Trump rally, visiting the head, and exhanging the plain, boring paper in each stall with a festive and beautiful roll of Trump Paper?
