  • I hate to say this man, but assassination is a bigger deal than a murder, cause it does mean someone in a position of power wanted you dead.

    All life is sacred, but that doesn’t mean the amount of effort taken to snuff it out is equal. Does it make you feel better if you view it from the effort taken and not from the life lost?

    To take the impact out of assassination though would just be…bad though? It’d be like saying you should react the same from crime as you do from organized crime. One of them takes considerably more effort both to do and to deal with.



  • A democracy cannot work if the will of the people is not enforced. part of that is enforcing the laws that those people have put in place. To argue that someone can be voted in against that is, indeed, undemocratic.

    You’re looking at the end result and ignoring the process that leads up to it. Given that the main violation was constitutional, the amount of effort needed just to make that into law requires a significant amount of representatives or straight up popularity throughout the country. This is not something that should be lightly brushed aside.

    So yes, if they’re not eligible, they’re not eligible. Because by supporting your stance it is also damning the stance of many others both past and present.

    I would also argue you shouldn’t find much issue with finding someone you can vote for that hasn’t performed the very uncommon crime of treason.


  • They are not. Quite strictly speaking, the Russian example you gave is an abuse of authority.

    You are comparing a silencing of political opponents to someone who has performed the most basic form of treason. Like, there are no countries where Trumps situation would not be worse for what he has been recorded doing.

    You are blatantly trying to tie together things to support someone who is cut and dry a traitor to the people of the country, not just it’s government, and has already been noted on many accounts that he will disrupt the democracy in the country if elected.

    If you want to keep dying on this hill, I’ll probably just block you because this is a waste of time. Because you’re not here to have a discussion, you’re here to find people who don’t understand these basic concepts that you can potentially sway to your side. In other words you’re a waste of time to argue with, you decided from the outgo what your stance was.
