The REAL Fallout Of Cantor's Lie: The RW Nutbag Crazies Will NOW WANT TO ESCALATE

[Beetwasher]

They will believe Cantor and this will now escalate. He has just sent this to the next level.

Mark my words.

[arbusto_baboso]

1. Only if we act afraid.

The right thrives on fear. Since they themselves are afraid, they believe everyone can be manipulated by fear. We must disappoint them.

[Beetwasher]

3. It Doesn't Matter How We Act, This Will Send Some Of Them Into An Apeshit, Violent Frenzy

He is "proving" to them that the war has become hot. They will act accordingly.

[arbusto_baboso]

6. Then we use the legal means available to us to combat them.

That includes law enforcement, and our own force, if necessary.

Jacking our side up into a frenzy of fear only makes them stronger. So calm down.

[Beetwasher]

9. Who Said Anything Differently?

Not me.

Pointing out the likely results of his lies is not "jacking" anyone up. Perhaps you should take your own advice and quit the hyperbole.

18. :nodding:

Gotta agree with you here, how we act will not determine what they try.

[arbusto_baboso]

21. Perhaps. But how WE act is the only thing we truly control.

And you would be surprised how quickly cowardly bullies will back down. Yes, there will be the isolated, violent nuts. But there will NOT be mass, armed revolution or widespread terrorism unless we act like a bunch of panicky morons.

And you may not have SAID otherwise, but your OP certainly had the whiff of fear about it.

[Bluebear]

22. it wasnt my OP

[Beetwasher]

23. The whiff of fear?

No, that was smegma.

U need to get a grip. Yr projecting.

[Birthmark]

13. They may

If they get a chance to back-shoot someone from a safe distance, they might just do it.

[fascisthunter]

2. and that's what his intention was all about

he knows better...

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

4. I hadn't thought of that. It's way worse than a mere attempt to save face. -nt

[arcane1]

5. Which is EXACTLY why he told the lie in the first place

Do give the impression that "the left" has escalated things

[xultar]

17. +1

[kestrel91316]

7. Of course. WHY DO YOU THINK HE LIED ABOUT IT?

[Marsala]

19. Obviously to encourage people to shoot up Dem offices!

:sarcasm:

Of course not. He did it so that he could point to the "other side being just as bad" and possibly defuse this very negative story.

[Liberal In Texas]

8. I'm afraid that's a real possibility. n/t

[K8-EEE]

10. Ack I'm out of the loop -- have to go find out what he lied about

Haven't had any "net" time today...sounds good though, I cannot stand that weasel Cantor!

[Beetwasher]

11. He Claimed Someone Shot At His Office

It was shown to be a damnable lie.

[K8-EEE]

20. Oh GAWD.....

Thanks for the 411, watch the "lib-rul" media will just drop it.

[blm]

12. Exactly what I thought. Cantor is making it worse by trying to reach for equivalency.

.

[Fuzz]

14. But it's the Democrats who are playing politics, c'mon!

[BrklynLiberal]

15. i agree with those who say Cantor was intentionally stirring the pot....

[xultar]

16. I have been tweeting like a mad woman and countering all the teabaggers

that say his office was shot out.
