Your response is disingenuous and overlooks the orignal point



My answer is disingenuous? You are the one claiming that there is no difference between a criminal and a victim. In the case of an execution the conviction is understood and goes without saying in any honest debate. Words have meanings. But you prove that you are incapable of honest debate. At some point, an intelligent person would have to ask why they are always on the side of the criminal and opposed to decency. But relax, no one will ever expect that from you.

If he called for the assassination of any POTUS, why do you need to know what he wrote? He broke the law correct?


It's not against the law to say such things.

It is against the law to take any kind of actions for such things. But you are free to have such an opinion all you want.

Being stupid isn't illegal.

I was going to say, I would probably acquit, unless there was a very specific threat and the prosecution made the case it violated whatever law.

I know of a guy serving time for calling 911 drunk and saying he was going to take out Obama. Though when police arrested him he had illegal guns, 4 rifles and 7 pounds of weed
Dude was freaking crazy as shite. I think he got 8 years.

A New Orleans man has been arrested and charged with threatening to kill President Barack Obama.

In a court filing Monday, a Secret Service agent said 47-year-old John Turnpaugh dialed 911 early last Friday and told a police emergency dispatcher that he planned to kill the president and first lady Michelle Obama.

I’ll ask it again -

If someone had been tried in Alexandria for typing those same words online about your dear cult leader Obama and every word used in the trial was exactly the same as the words used in the cited case, do you honestly believe that an Arlington jury would have not only declared the defendant not guilty, but would’ve also unanimously acquitted the defendant?

Please, please, please tell me you’re not that fricking stupid. There is just no fricking way that someone could possibly be THAT F*CKING STUPID.

Hell, even a brain dead and brainwashed liberal who thinks Obama is their Messiah (like you) could be that f+cking stupid.

I am not talking about calling for an execution of someone guilty of a (presumably horrible) crime. That is an opinion about the severity of the sentence for the crime - which is not my question at all.

Is it OK to you to call for the execution of someone who has not been convicted or charged with a crime?

And, if so (for the third time) how is that distinguishable from the defendant's posts?

It wouldn't be an execution prior to conviction. It would be murder. Due process is understood with the use of the word "execution" rather than use of the word "murder". Of course you know that but silly word games are all you're capable of.

Well, Democrats have become a death cult so this isn't really surprising.

Contrast this with the sick old man that threatened Biden and got his door kicked in and was summarily executed in his home for his assassination threats.

The guy was a crackpot running his mouth on the Internet, not a potential assassination conspiracist.

If you support this prosecution, is it safe to assume that you also support the British government prosecutions of Internet crackpots?

people online (including here) call for people (who have not been convicted of crimes) to be executed, harmed, etc. - how is that different than the defendant's conduct?
It isn’t.

Juries are generally stupid and emotional.

Azkiger is conducting a rational analysis.

To answer your question directly, however, such a conviction would be unlikely. Even in the most-Blue venue, you would get enough Red (or otherwise rational) jurors to lock the jury and create a mistrial. You would probably need only one.

I didn’t ask you to define execution. I know what the term means. As I previously stated, I don’t disagree with your definition.

I asked you a simple question: whether *calling* for execution of an innocent person is any different than calling for murder, violence, etc. Apparently you either have a serious reading comprehension issue or you believe that no one could ever utter the words “he should be executed” about someone that hasn’t been convicted of a crime. The lengths you’re going to to avoid the question are remarkable.

Some were posted above and you have the internet.

You obviously don't know what it means because you keep asking the same stupid question.

Maybe if I type slower you'll be able to follow this time. The use of the term "execution" clearly implies that due process has been followed. But I apologize for calling you disengenuous. You really are this stupid, aren't you?

the paranoia is off the charts
who knows what another jury would do? you're making up scenarios that don't exist and getting worked up about it
so emotional
