there's no gain from mocking a death. don't preoccupy yourself here
additive : death sucks
I'll mock traitors all I want. Take this sanctimonious nonsense somewhere else.
bet your ass you can have all the words
I disagree that her death was "comical" but mocking her absolutely serves the purpose of preventing her being elevated as a martyr for a stupid cause. The more everyone says she's a sad joke who threw her life away for nothing, the harder it is for martyrdom to gain traction. I'm here for it.
crazy dax told you shut the hell up
so you saw that crazy girl attempt an attack on congress, now you want to say what, what is you want
Presumably democracy
Counterpoint: Henry Kissinger
who
War criminal from the Nixon administration. Lead to the deaths of millions in Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Pakistan, and many other countries. He died last week and the entire world was celebrating
Are you for real
Do you not know of the Darwin Awards?
Or are you the type of person who "doesn't speak ill of the dead" even though they might have done stupid or evil things?
who is mike johnson
Whew, gonna block you man.
Everything you've said so far has been unhinged.
I agree that everything the commenter has said has been unhinged (like, way unhinged). Buuut, it’s not like he has your personal phone number texting you every 5 minutes. Haha
What is the point of blocking someone you’ll probably never engage with again?
It's the best way to deal with trolls. Block them. They are the reason squelch is an option.
I don’t think this person is a troll. I just think they’re batshit crazy.
sorry friend
i need some help.
There's no gain for trying to breach a secured area either.
You know there is. It's just incredibly high risk.
What did she win for her valiant attempt? It doesn't seem to be more than consequences. If it was really worth it I woud think more of those brave freethinkers would have piled in. That security guard had a Glock with no more than 17 rounds so it's not like they all would get the same reward babbit did.
She got a free bullet.
Those things are expensive these days.
She wasn’t successful. There are only rewards if you can breach, get the prize, and get out.
Babit shows the full extent of the risk.
Well a lot of them seemed to get in and get out and not face persecution for years. What did they get? Selfies?
Well, they didn't stop the certification of the election which was their apparent goal. Not sure the statute of limitations on insurrection.
What are your thoughts about George Floyd?
he was murdered. sorry i fucked off into a wilderness.
I don’t care.
