Maybe this one:
Might be, so maybe she’s not just making crap up out of nowhere, but still - she’s going to get people killed.
Doug Mastriano says if he is elected Gov of PA, on day 1 he will ban pole dancing, porn and CRT in elementary schools.
And no, this is not a case of why we should give a fuck about an Oxford Comma.
I wish Dr Oz’s campaign would quit spamming me by instant message. I don’t live in Pennsylvania, and I don’t have a Pennsylvania phone number!
yeah, but neither does he

Per Marjorie Taylor Greene deceptively tells Trump rally that Democrat 'killings' of Republicans have already started (one is the incident Indy guessed, with some additional info here)
Whether or not the victim was actually a Republican seems somewhat irrelevant if the suspect’s belief of the victim’s membership in the extremist group was a contributing factor in the killing.
Here’s the story on the pro-life lady who was shot. She’s 84 years old, 120 pounds, and was shot in the back as she was leaving the property… allegedly the shooting was accidental.
That’s certainly not “killing” since she lived.
Whether the victim was actually a Republican is somewhat irrelevant, but whether he shot “someone he thought was threatening him and was Republican” vs “someone he thought was Republican” is very relevant. Also “he thought was a Republican extremist” vs “he thought was Republican” has relevance to the likelihood of future shootings, unless we’re at the point where “Republican extremist” is redundant.
True, but the “threatening” appears to be “threatening to call his parents”.
I don’t think saying “oh yeah, well I’m going to tell my mom” is grounds for killing someone.
It also sounds like the killer was unhinged and belonged in an institution and may have just been making up the whole story after the fact… it’s hard to pin down the motives of mentally unstable people.
Potentially different coverages provide different insights. I hadn’t realized “threatening” referred to phone calls rather than direct threats of violence by the victim.
However from https://www.kxnet.com/news/top-stories/explainer-why-shannon-brandt-is-charged-with-murder-of-cayler-ellingson/
Whether he should have interpreted the calls as a threat (certainly not enough to kill someone) can be debated, but he was not threatening to make calls. He made calls. The fact that the only calls were to his parents is probably largely irrelevant, especially if the accused had no way of knowing whom he was calling.

my wife keeps switching partys so she can vote in PA closed primaries.
so she if getting flooded by both sides right now.
You should see the CRAP we are getting in the mail every day.
further reading indicated that while ‘political argument’ was included in the report, police at the scene were more so leaning toward ‘alcohol induced incident’.
but yes, I assume this is what our great congresswoman was referring to.
Dixon, the MI Republican challenger for Governor, has said in public and doubled down on “no abortion even for rape, incest, or life of the mother”. (She has walked back life of the mother recently.)
Now that she’s something like 17 points down in polls, she thinks it’s unfair that her stance is part of the public discourse:
I think you clearly parsed that statement ignoring the most important part. Why?
However, North Dakota Highway Patrol Captain Bryan Niewind told Fox News that his department’s investigations have “uncovered no evidence to support the claim” that the murder had anything to do with politics…
Whatever follows in that sentence doesn’t matter after the first statement.
this picture triggers my trigger disciple.
