Don't spread that crap about saying LYNCHINGS‼️ one black man, one white man. One has already been proven a suicide ‼️ THE OTHER ONE WAS SO HIGH ON DRUGS HE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT HE WAS DOING ‼️ DROP YOUR F****** FEAR-MONGERING ‼️

For the record the deaths of both men, Trey Reed and Cory Zukatis (a homeless white man) are still under investigation.

Anyone who reads the elitist bs these brothers put out is a F’ing moron. These brothers, Meiselas & their organizations need to be thoroughly investigated, not for their speech but for directly supporting and inciting violence throughout this country.

We are sick and tired of this crap!! Normalcy and not having to hear from the President and their hostile treatment of anyone who doesn’t fawn over them. The President is supposed to make life easier better for as many people as possible. Instead it’s just him and his biggest donors.

Too true. This guy is just emulating his idea of a Holywood (not misspelled) gangland boss in his element despite his progressive deterioration, being held up (I mean supported) by a bevy of hand picked hoodlums and sycophants (maybe better spelled psychophants) who manage to keep him going while trying to hide or smooth over his worst impulses. Though what escapes is more than pretty bad.

Oh yes. And taking pictures of the signs and good vibes echoed by my friends and neighbors. Great to celebrate the community spirit around here. Will it stop the sewer clowns (thanks for that one Jeff Teidrich) probably not.

I can’t believe the blatant and assault on our constitutional rights from people that disposable lawyers the Attorney General should be taken out of office immediately with the rhetoric she is portraying. I don’t understand this. They are ruining the respect for the rule of law. Every day people are not gonna respect the law anymore of if this keeps continuing

Irene Finn's avatar

The assault on constitutional rights only applies when this administration can use it on people who don't agree. Look at Trump's behavior. He makes jokes when democrats get attacked, (Mr Pelosi) but is going to give Kirk the Congressional Medal of Freedom. He wants to just hate a certain group of people.

When this insanity is gonna end, but if it doesn’t end soon, by the court, doing their job with someone doing the right thing by the constitution, this country is not gonna survive. In my opinion have to go into a Spencer fair that’s been going on for over 100 years, having not been in 20 years myself.

Recognize the event the horse is most of the livestock was no longer in competitions because of rules and regulations, and that seems like the soul of the country was dead. It wasn’t the same Fair from the farmers used to celebrate the end summer. Best pumpkin Pig, his actions alone on January 6 he shouldn’t have been eligible to even run again and once that wasn’t an issue, all of sudden anymore I knew we were in trouble.😈

MAGA are frantic to believe that a benevolent daddy is going to take care of them, and entertain them with bedtime stories instead of raping them. After MAGA returned Trump to power, he’s filling his pockets with our money and providing a merciless bare-bottom spanking to those who gave him their votes.

My observations are that Charlie Kirk’s killer was apolitical. The Discord app for group text, video, and screen sharing and discussions is used by gamers, not for politics. In Discord over 6 years, Tyler Robinson, an avid gamer, used the word Trump once in 2019, and the word Biden once in 2020. That is it, people. I call that apolitical. His friends said he never talked politics. Only games. 

For political reasons, the Administration and the Republican Utah governor are trying very hard to paint Tyler Robinson into the left camp. The right needs that Reichstag Fire pivotal event, the root of their biases (plural). 

Tyler Robinson had a grudge against homophobic Charlie Kirk and Tyler could not resolve that. Evidently Tyler Robinson’s mother said he had moved left recently. I think first, slightly to the left of Nick Fuentes, then that his mother and the Utah governor conflate bisexuality with the left. Therein lies a problem. Many on the right are confused by God-given sexual orientations. Confused they indiscriminately throw out chum. Bloody chum in the water brings sharks. Frenzied sharks will bite anything. That is not violence. What they bite brings emotionally soothing food to them. 

There is a need for health social services to address those emotionally challenged individuals that strike out with gunshots. Instead of reaching out to help, some crazed individuals with megaphones torture them repeatedly with heteronormativity. Alex Jones. Charlie Kirk, et al. 

That is not politics, that is abuse. Yes. This is systemic abuse and societal failure. Those are both fixable. Some do not want to fix. They want to exploit it to make money. I am disgusted by those making a living by bellowing insults in this type of torture chamber.

Size- good point. I have often asked on another Substack about “Can there be class action law suits against an entity whose lies have resulted in damage or death?”(Looking at you, 🦊).

Class-action law suits seem great idea. Safety in numbers, Mainstream media could not avoid covering.

Bluesmurf's avatar

Class action lawsuits would be great. First we have to get a lawyer to submit a "class" of us to get certified as a class that has been harmed. Then we can all sue under a class action lawsuit. That is how the 14th amendment crap got stopped nationwide. A judge certified a class of babies born and yet to be born as a class that would be harmed if birthright citizenship was eliminated. The harms that they would suffer were included in the request for certification.

We need a brave lawyer to put this together. Any takers out there?
