Can’t you just imagine all those Libertarians sitting around in their nightly circle jerk talking about this? “I really showed those guys!” “You sure did!” <fap><fap<fap> “I sent them packing with the First Ammendment!” “You sure did!” <fap><fap><fap> “They were so embarasses!” “So embarassed!” <fap><fap><fap> “Then I decided to take the posts down on my own, not because they showed up!” “On your own!” <fap><fap><fap>
It sounds to me as though those two guys from the FBI delivered their message loud and clear. Doesn’t it sound like that to you, too?
It sounds to me as though you have weird fantasies about libertarians, lol
You’re projecting.
I’m not the one who wrote out a whole scenario involving a “nightly circle jerk” among Libertarians, complete with sound effects, lol.
K
Now do Elon.
Didn’t the SS do that?
Waffen?
Secret service.
Don’t let nazis control parts of our language.
With the people Elon has been endorsing I think it’s a fair question.
Not everyone lives in The US and i thought the same.
Ohhh right.
Oh geez…both sides love to throw this whole “Nazism” thing around…
?? Secret Service = Nazism? Since when?
Some would argue since the term Nazism was around but…
I meant secret service.
The SS were an elite division of political soldiers under Hitler.
To be fair, I’ve never seen Secret Service abbreviated to SS.
Ahh then I guess you never worked a government job? They abbreviate everything as much as possible. I totally forgot about the SS Nazi thing and assumed it was Secret Service.
No I’ve never worked a government job. But you are right, they like to abbreviate everything haha.
Judging from the amount of kids he’s got, I think Elon’s been “done” enough.
They have no idea what all these words mean. It’s embarrassing. Their tweets read like an edgy teenager discovering instant messaging
He’s in prison now, right?
i believe it’d be reasonably covered by freedom of speech
Not quite. Death threats and inciting violence can catch you up with other things really fast.
They need to be credible, specific, and realistic tho

I’m not sure “Trump is a martyr” leads to the timeline you think it does.
Tell me how martyrdom worked out for Mussolini
… what?
Velvet Elvis? Cool. Velvet Cheeto? Not cool.
Sorry, I’m lost
Elvis was Jesus-ified after death and tacky, roadside velvet Elvis art could be purchased and displayed to show your devotion to the King. Love of a musical icon is one thing. But, martyred fascists are not kitsch or cool. Either one will let you know what kind of a home you stepped into. Both would be in bad taste but one is so bad it’s good and the other is so bad, it’s baaaad. And not Michael Jackson bad.
Ahhh. Got it
Wait, so Che Guevara tee shirts aren’t woke? Well, fuck.
It does…without his cult of personality I think the magats fizzle out and slink back into the dark corners of society
Maybe they find a new Messiah in Elon, but I don’t think he has the lack of intelligence to lie like Trump does.
Musk is at least ineligible to run for president
I mean these assassination attempts barely stick around the news cycle longer than other shootings and my guess is people are tired enough of him not to care. Hate crime incidence spiked when he won in 2016, so also.theres no version of this election that doesn’t lead to violence. May as well excise the cancer entirely.
Trump is going to be a martyr no matter how he dies.
I mean, look how they deified Elvis.
My bet is that they don’t care, since that’s clearly an opinion with no intent. Everyone has already been saying basically that when discussing the assassination attempt. Try adding one of the follow-ups:
Follow-up posts added: ‘The point of the second amendment is to shoot and kill tyrannous politicians’ and ‘encouraging politicians to be shot is legal under the first amendment. It’s part of what makes this country great.’
Those are even closer to the line (maybe even crossing it) than the initial tweet. This guy was still not arrested for any of it. The agents just feel mandated to act on tips or something.
Awww. There goes my trip to a black site :(

Fuck yeah, FBI party!!!
I disagree.
There’s probably a better argument that either:
-
Political assassinations (as a subset of misnamed ‘vigilante justice’) are never good and we shouldn’t reinforce that precedent, or
-
That person would be a hero to the planet and the future, not just present day America.
-
Did someone hear something coming from the anonymous abyss? Real name and address and I bet you get your wish.
I’d get more attention from people here than the FBI lol
True, lol.
Anyone who kills Donald Trump would be an enemy of the people, just like the other scum that fight to keep him from facing consequences for his crimes.
Enemy of the state, not of the people. ;)
Yes
Not nearly as edgy as that beard smear ^smeard? they’re sportin’ there. 🥲
Fuck that. I just want our law to apply equally so he would be in prison, like any of us would for the same crime.
The latest move of delaying the sentencing to 2 weeks after election is appealing. He announced he is running AFTER DOJ started investigating him and now judge is afraid to sentence it because GOP picked him despite being a convicted felon?
What’s worst is that if he wins the sentence likely will be a slap in the wrist, because they won’t want him for example using military to avoid jail. If he loses the election, then he will immediately appeal, and likely judge will allow him to remain free during appeal process.
We have two tier justice system.
Alas, we don’t live in that world.
I think he should be tried for treason. And if convicted suffer the full punishment for that. He is a clear and present threat to democracy. No one should be able to invite an insurrection and have it not be taken as seriously as it was.
They won’t because this is a fact.
😇
Love the expression of the guy on the left. Probably describes everything you need to know about the encounter.

“The FBI visited my house today for free speech acts they knew were not crimes.”
Uh, calling for violence is NOT protected under the first amendment, so you can fuck right off with that.
“It is well understood that the right of free speech is not absolute at all times and under all circumstances. There are certain well-defined and narrowly limited classes of speech, the prevention and punishment of which have never been thought to raise any Constitutional problem. These include the lewd and obscene, the profane, the libelous, and the insulting or ‘fighting’ words – those which by their very utterance inflict injury or tend to incite an immediate breach of the peace. It has been well observed that such utterances are no essential part of any exposition of ideas, and are of such slight social value as a step to truth that any benefit that may be derived from them is clearly outweighed by the social interest in order and morality.”
Wait. This means that art with lewd, obscene, or profane content is not protected?
And exactly what is “lewd, obscene, or profane” is not actually defined in the law.
Surely that’s never been abused in the past. No, sir.
Republicans can’t read.
They certainly won’t, in any case. Just look at how they talk about the Constitution, history, religion…
For people who seem to consistently break the law, you’d think they would want to know what their rights actually are.
Only speech.
I wouldn’t call that speech. That implies some thought went behind it. More like yapping and blabbering.
Write is not speech!
But money is
In Terminiello v. Chicago (1949), the Supreme Court narrowed the scope of what constitutes fighting words. The Court found that words which produce a clear and present danger are unprotected (and are considering fighting words), but words which invite dispute and even cause unrest are protected (and are not considered fighting words).
sure, but this guy is not even being charged with anything. we are talking about a warning.
I mean if Trump’s speech for Jan 6 didn’t count…
Trump was actually arrested for that though.
Although it was for more than just the speech.
this guy is not even being charged with anything
He feels threatened, though. That violates his NAP.
If these were black kids playing across the street rather than armed FBI agents pounding on his door, he likely would have tried to gun them down already.
Nor should he be. What he said was most likely “protected” speech.
but very close to not being protected, hence the warning.
My favorite part of the article is where the libertarians called Lincoln a tyrant who was rightly assassinated.
Very cool and normal.
Libertarians denounce Lincoln as a tyrant, then spill a gallon of ink praising Coolidge, Eisenhower, and Reagan for brutalizing Latin America and terrorizing American immigrant communities.
They don’t give a shit about Freedom and Liberty. They’re just white nationalists. They want to bring the old plantation system back.
Yeah it’s very telling that the president they hate the most is the one who ended slavery, and second place was the first black president.
Hey, now. They also really hate FDR and LBJ.
Shows how stupid they are, the new plantation system is much more profitable than the old one.
Can I get a lol with a side of smh?
lol smh
That’s less a look of “shame”, and more a look of “how am I even in the same subset of genetic distribution as this moron?”
Democratic regime manifest
Never thought I’d see someone unironically chant Democracy Manifest, but here we are
This is democracy manifest! Can’t a man enjoy a succulent Chinese meal?! A succulent Chinese meal!!!
A Chinese meal? THEY’RE EATING THE DOGS!!
Ahh, yes. I see you know your judo well.
wondered what Bill Goldberg was up to, good for him

“Hey Elon, you might want to tone it down a little. Just sayin’”
“Why? Did they visit a billionaire?”
How many visits does Musky get every week?
Considering the fucker made a similar statement and is yet to see consequences, not enough.
He is currently under investigation for his recent statements
Nice
