But even one person who feels that the assassination of another person is OK is wrong. The poll shows that a significant percentage of mostly young people do think it is totally or possibly acceptable.And here’s the whole doggone poll:
What Americans really think about political violence
Most Americans say political violence is never justified, but younger and more liberal Americans are more likely to say it can be.today.yougov.com
I think that the Pelosi incident should not be part of this argument, as there is all kinds of evidence that there was no break and enter and that the attacker was allowed into the residence. This brings "personal reasons" into play, and makes the subject irrelevant in an analysis of politically based attacks.
Is it?
He didn’t misstate an event. He spoke about the alleged suspext’s background. And he is not a journalist. It’s a subjective opinion about that person’s potential, alleged leanings. And what they “considered” was an open threat of government harassment from the party that once pretended to support both free speech and limited government. Apparently that does not apply to those said party doesn’t like.
The post also said Howard was fired.NY Post says Kimmel is (bleeping) livid and he "wants to end his relationship with ABC". Welp, sounds like Nightline follows your late local news now:
Jimmy Kimmel reportedly ‘f–king livid’ over ABC pulling ‘Live!’ — as Trump cheers ‘great news for America’
Kimmel faced backlash after he said Monday night that the “MAGA gang” was trying to score political points off Kirk’s murder after the right-wing influencer was shot dead on the campus of Utah Vall…nypost.com
Sure there was. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Like I said, these Tim Tok videos from young people seem to be OK with advocating public assassination of those they don't agree with. It's uncomfortable to view these, as if murder is OK, and that he asked for it, karma payback, etc.
And allegedly learned to text message like he was a civil war soldier writing to his partner back home.
How can you prove that. iMessages are encrypted. They could have gotten his phone and forged a few texts. We need time stamps from the actual phone not random screen shots.
Watch out you might get cancelled.DePape (the attacker), questioned by the police (introduced as evidence at his trial. The question—-do you know why you’re in custody?
“DePape answers, "Absolutely." He grows increasingly angry and emotional, claiming that Nancy Pelosi and other Democrats committed crimes to steal the election from Donald Trump. Then, Depape says, "I was going to hold her hostage and get her to tell the truth. If she didn't tell the truth, I'd break her kneecaps."

But we exclude that from political violence because Paul Pelosi opened the goddamn door? Is that what you’re saying?
Because not only is that insane, it’s also completely wrong:
“The Capitol Police video shows DePape walk up to a glass-panel door, leave and then return wearing a large backpack and carrying two other bags. He set all the items down and pulled out a hammer, pausing to put on gloves, and used it to smash the door glass so he could step through an opening.”
And let’s not forget this gem:

I think a few people are elated just because our country is so divided that they feel happy when someone on the other side gets killed. I see it on social media, but haven't seen it too much elsewhere. Someone said there were a lot of comments about it in the YouTube video for the Wizard of Oz scene "ding ding, the witch is dead."
After this week, Nightline?
Bold of anyone to think Disney wants to remain in the network television business, and especially after this debacle.
