Should Chuckie be prosecuted for inciting violence?
What think you?
Schumer's words were a direct threat to Kavanaugh and Gorsich. Schumer even yelled the threat at the top of his lungs. If Kavanaugh and his family had been killed by that guy, which still could happen, I wonder if Schumer would have been charged for insurrection and perhaps some kind of other charges.
I chose B.
You're pretending the guy who thought he maybe wanted to kill Kavanaugh the other day was incited by something a Democratic politician said two years ago, and that that absolves Trump sending a mob of supporters towards the Capitol to "fight like hell". (It turns out the Proud Boys were already there because they knew what the plan for the day was: attack the Capitol.)
None. Just that "Stand back and stand by" increased their numbers and morale significantly, and now they've been indicted for Seditious Conspiracy, along with the Oath Keepers, who they had a meeting with on Jan 5th. You can see the video of that meeting in the hearing. You really ought to watch it, you know.
I think Schumer was talking about a political price, and I wouldn't be at all surprised to find that those 22 seconds avoid a lot of context that would back that up. Care to post the whole speech?
I think if you watch the hearings tonight and going forwards, you will hear plenty of evidence that there was a grand conspiracy to steal the presidency from the winner of the 2020 election. Part of that was the attack on the Capitol. That was far worse, and it was planned in advance.
I also think that someone who turns himself in to the police was never that great a threat. (Not to mention that Ms Ford has had to pay for her own security and move house multiple times, why shouldn't Kavanaugh?)
Something tells me you’re not as forgiving with your appeals to proper context and framing when it comes to the Orange Man.
Take the Democrat party’s cock out of your ass. They’ve got it shoved so far up there you’re practically a sock puppet. God knows you speak like their goddamn toadie.
"What political price can a SCOTUS Justice pay?"
That's a fair point. You're right, it was a very stupid thing to say. But it's also pretty stupid to point to one thing said two years ago and pretend it was the cause of someone's fantasy this week.
By the way, did he actually commit a crime until he threatened the justice's life, which was after he turned himself in? Carrying a gun around is just perfectly normal behaviour, and he might have been planning to fix something with the duct tape and cable ties. :)
Schumer is an idiot but, unfortunately, even an idiot can inspire a deranged person with homicidal intent.
Almost forget Crazy Auntie Maxine's call to violence.
She's been quiet lately. I wonder why!

Neither what Trump said, or what he said, is anything anyone should get upset about. Chuck Schumer is an idiot and waste of oxygen. Stop wasting YOUR time on people like him. We only get 700,000 hours of life to live.
Problem is, Trumps words never incited the riots on Jan. 6th! That was all antifa and blm so, you can't equate that incident with Trump.
All the above. This is a classic example of Democrats and their double standards. 🙄
yes, he should be forced to resign, or locked up.
fake like always
