    Name calling and labeling is not a very effective counter argument.  And I guess he should have done the honorable and moral thing and let those armed street thugs, or if you prefer armed peaceful protesters, beat the crap out of him or kill him?  Better to be judged by 12 than carried by 6.  Expect to be disappointed when he's acquitted for self-defense.  Video accounts of the altercation seem to support that conclusion. 


    would you be defending this terrorist if he were black?

    Another victim speaks.   "Two protesters"?  Armed and chasing the suspect is a minor detail to the story that appears to be avoided.   And that sets the context for the entire confrontation and outcome.  They are well coached and use some standard and effective debating techniques that help them squirm out of an uncomfortable argument. 

     

    1. Introduce false comparisons.  In this case mention another situation in an attempt to portray the opponents argument as inconsistent. 

    2. Introduce suggestions of motive.  Gratuitous mention of White Supremacists is standard.  Has anyone ever met a white supremacist?  I haven't and I don't know anyone else that has either.  What are there?  Like maybe 50 of them in the country hiding out somewhere?

    3. Change the subject.  Now the argument is the other side supports white supremacists that kill innocent people rather than debating an act of self-defense against an angry and armed mob.. 

     

    My view is this.  Its real simple.  If you don't want anybody to screw with you then don't screw with them.  First, if you going to start a confrontation with somebody you'd better be prepared to suffer and accept any consequences.  Don't get into anybody's face, make a lot of threats, and start pushing people around and then piss and moan when it doesn't turn out the way you expect.  If I start a fight with somebody and end up getting the crap kicked out of me its my own damn fault.  I'm not going to claim I'm the victim.  After all, I started it.  That's the case with these two dead guys.  They confronted an armed guys with significant force and he killed them before they killed him.  End of story.  Can we introduce these people to the concepts of responsibility and consequences for actions?  Can they please just stop playing the victim all the time?  


    The kid is a terrorist and should be on death row. 
     

    oh, and you’re in a cult

    It's really an amazing position for the Speaker of the House to take -- while she's in negotiations with the executive. 

     

    They do not care about their constituents. They do not care about the country. They do not care about you. 

     

    They only care about power and getting it by any means necessary. 


    Meanwhile - Trump wants Biden to take a drug test?

     

    Funny as the entire Trump family was powered by the white powder all week.

     

    Always projecting

  4. “But what if there's no clear winner in the Electoral College vote?

     

    The Constitution provides the answer: The House chooses the president, with each state, not each member, casting a single vote. The Senate chooses the vice president.”

     

    Trump's off base about what happens if there's no clear election winner. Here's the deal.

     

    Chaos. That’s what happens. The Constitution is largely irrelevant to his cult, and certainly to his leader.
