The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

"Imagine someone wanting people to be hurt, and hurt badly .."

At least two lunatics with TDS (that the public is aware) have already tried to assassinate our current President. People have been threatening to take Elon Musk's life. Vandalizing Teslas. Fire bombing Tesla dealerships. For deftly exposing the waste, fraud and corruption that we all knew suspected were hidden inside our government?

Today James Comey (former FBI director) posts an image on social media insinuating someone should assassinate Trump:

cnn.com - James comey instagram post donald trump uproar

Then takes it down after he gets a visit from the Secret Service. My mistake he says. And yet the damage is done. No doubt, some unhinged loser will se this and take up Comey on his suggestion.

What kind of people are these? Is this how a civilized society resolves its political difference? Inciting violence towards the political opposition?

Are the members of this board aligned with this kind of violence and hate? Reading some of the posts here over the last several months I can only conclude yes.

Saddens me.
