What does it have to do with John Osoff?


He is a hard line liberal. If he were not John Lewis would not be supporting him. How's that?

Any ad that exploits the shooting of Rep. Scalise is repulsive. Whoever thought this type of advertisement was a good idea should be ashamed of himself.

See this is what happens. They did it, so we can do it. It's game theory and everybody loses in the end because honest political discourse is reduced to attack ads.


So, your theory is that liberals can do it because they did it first, but the right cannot do it, because.....it hurts discourse?
Perhaps the left should have thought about that before they did it?

I know...the right should not have used the Nuclear Option, either, because the left used it first and it destroys political discourse.

Hell, even if he was a moderate he would become a hard line liberal within 20 minutes of meeting with Dem leadership in the Capital and learning the rules.

Being a "hard line" liberal and endorsing violence are two different things. John Osoff has never done the latter. Neither has Bernie Sanders.

I don't think we should necessarily fight back against liberals, it would probably be better to catch and humanely destroy them

It's obvious that the liberals are feral, they attack people and chew holes in the levee

No, I'm just using this situation as an example. It would be the same if the right had done something low first and the left had followed suit. Read up on game theory. It will make you smarter and shite. Not trolling.

You know the best way to tell if people truly give a frick about Steve Scalise? Just check and see if they use his pain for their gain.

Literally shaking. So outraged.

Shall we go down the list of the Julius Caesar/Trump play....Kathy Griffin...Stephen Colbert...ANTIFA...Maxine waters calls for impeachment when there are no grounds...and on and on and on....

But this is what triggers you, right? This is where you plant your flag and put your foot down? This is what went too far?

Well, the left wasted no time calling for gun control, so you might have a point.

Not a big fan of pointing out radical liberal terrorists? I don't blame you.


He may even be in cahoots with these radical liberal terrorists/left wing loons.

It was a PAC ad. It didn't come from her campaign.

It destroys civil discourse? What does this do?

Bernie Sanders Calls For A National Movement To Stop Trump’s Threat To Democracy

This was before Trump even took office--Civil Discourse, indeed

Nothing about violence in that link. Bernie and Osoff are not endorsing violence, as I stated before.

My bad. I thought this is what you said:

What is saying Trump is destroying Democracy anything but an attack ad?
