If you cheered on your kid for threatening to beat up smaller kids at school for their lunch money, we'd call you a bad and abusive parent.
But when you cheer on the president as he does the same thing, you don't get to hide your lack of character behind the label "patriot".
The "what happens after a general population becomes so enraged and outraged against their ruling class that they start cheering for assassins?" 👀:
"At first, the people only whispered their support. Then shopkeepers began giving shelter to the narodovoltsy assassins. Soon, factory workers declared holidays when ministers were killed. By 1905, crowds openly celebrated each dead official, and even the Tsar's own guards began refusing to protect his ministers." - Police Report, St. Petersburg, 1904-1905
"When Plehve's carriage was bombed, thousands gathered to dance on the bloodstains. Within months, assassinations were so celebrated that children played 'revolutionaries and ministers' in the streets, always fighting to play the assassin. Two years later, the entire system collapsed." - From "The Fall of the Romanovs," 1905
"The first assassination attempts were condemned. Then the people began calling them 'heroes of the nation.' By 1911, every failed attempt against the Qing officials was celebrated in secret societies. Soon they weren't secret at all - entire streets would feast when a Manchu noble was killed." - Sun Yat-sen's writings, 1912

@BearroristJodi Thank you for letting us know. I'm so glad you and your mom were able to be there with her. Jodi inspired so many people in her final months on earth. I hope you can take comfort knowing she loved and was loved through her finals days.
@LesleyLem@BearroristJodi I don't usually comment, but I've missed her so much, too. I've been following along for a while now. Praying things aren't too hard as you near the end of this journey, Jodi. I hope we hear from you again. 💜🩶
“We love Jesus… Please don’t indoctrinate our kids with books about race, but here’s a picture of the vice president of the United States kidnapped on the back of my truck so that all the children in the vehicles behind me can be indoctrinated with hate”.
I also love the “back the blue” flag on their truck while they are glamorizing kidnapping a public official.
These are the sick f—ks who keep screaming “family values”.
