VaporTrail Posted September 14, 2021 Report Share Posted September 14, 2021 He did. The worst felony that any of the Capitol invaders were charged with was obstruction of an official proceeding. And Bush compared them to people who rammed a plane into the World Trade Center. And the blues who cried out about Bush and Trump's authoritarianism are now cheering on authoritarian measures against his supporters. Anyone who doesn't like Trump or his supporters want to weigh in? Do we really want to follow this asshole down his authoritarian rabbit hole?

The Trump haters would be apoplectic if he did the same things as your guy. But as for the underlined section I think you repeat that at least every other day. 🍷 😏 WSS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both would fit the definition of terrorism, no? The word "terrorist" became pretty meaningless when GWB started using it. He took that word and changed its meaning to not just include al-Qaeda, not just jihadists, but "evil." And then when he used this good vs evil dichotomy to justify assassination, indefinite detention, mass surveillance. So, in his speech he talked about "our continuing duty to confront them." That sounds a lot like a rally cry for a domestic war on terror. So again, I'll ask. Do you think that the people who invaded the Capitol, or hell, even the antifa kid who threw a firework at the Portland courthouse should be subject to the rules that we applied to the people we accused of being associated with the 9/11 attack? I find it incredulous that I even have to ask this question. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's all "unlawful acts / violence" for "political aims". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorka Posted September 14, 2021 Report Share Posted September 14, 2021 It was unfair for feeble minded Bush to call them terrorists. What we refer to as "terrorists" are those belonging to organized groups or individuals who's sole aim in life is to use unlawful violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims...or ideological or religious. Timothy McVeigh was a terrorist. Those people were not that. Call them insurgents ok, not terrorists. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course if we are to accept that weak-ass definition we must admit that blm is no doubt a terrorist organization. And to the best of my knowledge no Republican candidate ever had members of Al Queda, Hamas or Islamic Jihad on stage during the primary.

Hoorta. ************************************************************* How can we explain why Hoorta irrationally bashes Pres Trump on every thread, but will NOT complain about biden? or obaMao commie? Not once. but he says WE are biased? More likely, Hoorta "says" he's given up trying to control the narrative on this forum. I won't miss the bitching. But he'll probably come back - demanding to be controlling the narrative is a manifestation of extreme ego - that doesn't change easily. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
