1. Someone should throw a firecracker into the crowd.

And let the fun begin.

[nini]

2. LOL

I like how you think.

[tenorly]

4. Ah, you're too kind.

I would never in a million years of course - but if someone else took the initiative, I don't think I'd mind too much. Besides: most of them would escape unharmed, running for their lives and all.

7. Trump talks at rallies about maybe some violence happening. Then when called he says its just a joke

How is it different when you suggest throwing a firecracker to start a violent firefight killing bystanders? Then when you are called on it, you say you would "never in a million years" "of course".

If never in a million years, then don't go there in the first place.

But you double down: "if someone else". You wouldn't mind "too much" because only some would die.

Sick. And not the late 90s backward slang "sick/ill". Stupidly sick.

[nini]

15. OMG

calm down.. it was a joke - you don't find it funny - ok..

No need to have a hissy fit over it.

[OldRedneck]

17. Joke my ass.

Sounds like a good plan. Watch those open-carry sonsofbitches shit in their camouflage pants and run for cover!!

[Alice11111]

29. LOL

[riversedge]

34. Trumps mind is sick as are so many of his fans that attend these ego rallies!!

[icymist]

3. So you think that watching people murder other people is fun, huh?

[tenorly]

5. See above comment.

Please, and thank you.

[Midnight Writer]

24. Technically nobody mentions murder. I see throw a firecracker and watch them run. But...

But we all know what image jumps into our heads. It is emotional and bypasses our logic and often what we hope are our values.

Simple. Effective. Just like the "dog whistles" used by the conservatives.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

6. So you think shooting bystanders would make a good point, even if the shooters are lunatics? :eyes:

Even hoping as you do that somebody else throws the firecracker.

[mdbl]

8. LOL, that IS brilliant!

[tenorly]

9. God forbid, right? Although one good thing might just come out of a tragedy like that:

Perhaps then the far right in this country would come around to the need for at least some gun control. Limits on assault weapon magazine sizes, say, or maybe even background checks.

[mdbl]

11. I was just hoping they would all kill each other

[tenorly]

12. What I'm hoping is something that could shake the gun humpers out of their fixation.

33,000 people a year, as you know, die in the U.S. by the gun in one way or another - and nothing is ever done thanks largely to their obsession with guns. What will it take to wake these people up!

[MFM008]

26. good idea

an M80 they would crap their pants.

[tenorly]

30. And who knows: they might even see the wisdom of gun control.

If wishes were horses, right?

[YOHABLO]

10. Creeps that have no life. Now that's very SAD!

[Initech]

13. Guns are free speech now according to these fuckers. WTF?

[Blue Idaho]

14. Three losers with rifles?

An expected pro-Trump crowd of 20-30? Yeah - a real groundswell of support.

[yuiyoshida]

16. let me guess...

Nazis?

[OldRedneck]

18. Losers

Here's a pic of the three clowns.





An AR-15 rifle typically costs close to $1,000, especially if you add a lot of shit to mount on the Picatinny rails -- scope, laser dot sight, flashlight, and the like. I'll bet the wives or girl friends of these clowns are working two jobs to pay the rent.

[bora13]

23. aren't they dapper?

with their fashionable getup and what not. looks like 99% of the clowns around me. sad. time to move.

[mdbl]

31. straight out of the movie Deliverance

[msanthrope]

35. The Master Race, my friends. nt

[Vinca]

36. Not a normal size dick among them.

[DonnaRx7]

19. I have a kinda friend whos brother could be one of these guys.

Scares the crap out of me.

Today he was telling me he and his buddies are gonna help Trump round up Democrats. I mean he is scarry, I don't know if he is crazy or jsut messing
with me.

[pecosbob]

20. Oh, goody...the SA's here.

wannabee nazis

[billh58]

21. Just your average NRA

"responsible" gun owners and part-time terrorists.

[Alice11111]

28. In defense of NRA, many are just ignorant Assholes, not terrorists

[billh58]

37. These particular "ignorant assholes"

are part of an armed right-wing militia, and are indeed American terrorists.

[BannonsLiver]

22. If they were a POC they would be harassed by police and likely arrested

"Just to be safe".

[jmowreader]

25. Have you seen the "open carry supporter" videos on YouTube?

Idiots just like the three in this thread like to walk down city streets with rifles to see if they can get the cops to "violate their Second Amendment rights." Eventually the sane people will get the idea that "the right to keep and bear arms" and "the right to make your city look like Beirut" are two different things, and open carry of long guns will be stopped.

[Kolesar]

33. The police hate the black guys with guns

I would think even this would set them off. The chief could talk to city council about regulating this abuse of power.

[RealityChik]

27. for a Trump rally of 30 people?

The article states that if more than 35 supporters show up, militia will require special fire arms permits for the event! OMG!

Bigly! Kinda like his Inaugural crowd numbers, right? YUGE crowd of adoring fans!

[Kolesar]

32. I am not allowed to have a wooden stick on a protest sign because it is a weapon

But the police let an armed mob protest in the city. Those projectiles can carry over a mile.

Don't tell me one of these guys didn't bring a few rounds in his pocket.
