[h=1]Man allegedly kills pro-Trump boss after argument, throws American flag on his body[/h]A construction worker in Florida has been accused of murdering his pro-Trump boss with a trowel after a political argument on the construction site where they both worked and then throwing an American flag on the man’s body.
The incident occurred on Monday morning at approximately 10:30 a.m. when emergency dispatchers received a call from co-workers saying that Mason Trever Toney, 28, had stabbed and killed their boss, 28-year-old William Steven Knight on the Florida Turnpike job site, according to the arrest affidavit obtained by ABC News’ Orlando affiliate WFTV.

Democrats murdering people and other acts of violence for political or ideological reasons continues.
Clinton supporter shoots over 100 LGBTs
Sanders supporter bombs Boston Marathon
Democrat open fires on Republican members of Congress at a baseball practice
2016 Democratic Party VP candidate's adult son attacked Republicans with explosives, chemicals and incendiaries - no criticism by any Democratic Party official
Maxine Waters calls for so stalking and harassing Republicans that they are too afraid to go into public

The 2016 election included thousands of YouTube videos of vandalism of Trump signs and attacks against those with Trump signs in their yards.

The bogus grandstanding by Democrats in the House and now in the Senate - with Trump not even accused of any crime in the articles of impeachment, is the Democratic Party throwing more gasoline on hate the government and hate-Trump fire they constantly try to inflame.

EXACTLY everyone should not hesitate to condemn ANY political violence and any harassment of anyone for political motives. We can argue the issues, but the only place we "fight" each other is by each our vote at an election polls. That is the ONLY place a political fight is decided - by voting.
 
Just a hunch, but I imagine this had something a bit more to do with something other than the Donald.

Disgusting. I hope that guy gets thrown in prison for a long time.

Also disgusting that you would single out one side of the aisle for one bad actor when you have plenty of bad actors in your camp.

...

See what I did there? See how I acted as if you were directly connected to the problem? You didn't like that, did you? Then stop doing it yourself, Joko. :thumbdown

How about you lead by example and not fan the flames of hatred with your loose words against one side of the aisle? Next time something like this happens, how about just sticking to the facts and let those of us who actually know how to tie other events together do the thinking. :)

It is becoming scary how disconnected the liberals are. Notice how the Conservatives can have peaceful rallies when far left idiots from Antifa don't show up. Start acting like adults or be ready to pay the price.
 
If you read the article and watch the video it appears the perp is anti-government. Not certain if he is Democrat but apparently Joko has researched that.

The deceased actually gave the perp a ride to work and reported long time friends. But this is the place we are with politics now.

Another reason why you should never put a political bumper sticker on your vehicle.
 
The constant increasing the intensity of partisan polarization - constantly egged on by the now mega-rich corporations owned and controlled MSM, press and Internet, combined with people working themselves in a tizzy in the non-reality of the Internet, will make this more common. This impeachment and Senate trial, which really is just "we really, really, really hate Trump and Republicans - and you should too" - with Republicans rightly seeing this is both just a media stunt and attempted coup by Democratic politicians to erase the election - inflames both sides.

Normal people can handle this. But there are millions of people on psychological drugs, probably a few million who are psychologically disturbed, and a million or more who are true sociopaths and otherwise mentally ill that can be pushed over the edge by this always escalating TDS - and the opposite in hatred of liberals, progressives etc.

Us emotionally ration people - no matter how strongly we feel on the politics, fate of the nation, the world etc - MUST universally condemn violence and physical harassment/stalking. Our Constitution allows us - ever election - to have a revolution. A non-violent revolution per the game rules of the US Constitution and Bill of Rights. Violence and threats of violence/stalking etc is against the rules. Play the game of politics and revolution potential as hard and intensely as you wish - but PLAY BY THE RULES! What rules? #1 rule? NO VIOLENCE.

I did that on purpose - but then qualified it in the same message. MANY times a thread has been started by a Democrat about some Republican doing something violent or extreme - and the thread title will be something like "Republicans are racists" - and the story is about one person. Yes, you don't think it's fair if coming from the other direction.

For this thread, I won't really go into who does more violence, property destruction and murder, because that is not my goal in this thread.

Can't we all agree to NO VIOLENCE?! Do you think that should including no harassing and stalking people in public on political motivation? Boycotts? Sure. Protest rallies? Sure. But no violence, no stalking harassment. See someone with a MAGA hat? Respect their right to wear it. Seem someone with something supporting the Democratic candidate? Respect that right. A person has a right to support the right to elective abortion. A person has a right to oppose. All can pursue this politically, in protests or whatever. But no violence. No stalking harassment.

Do you agree? Some people really don't and I know some on this forum don't.

By the article he is "anti-government," with that meaning anti-Trump in the article. I extrapolated "Democrat" from that, just as Democrats often make that same extrapolation.

Your OP is one big lie. Please provide evidence the murderer is a Democrat. The article refers to him as "anti-government" which everyone with a brain knows is a right-wing attribute. That's why you all want guns - for when the "jack-booted thugs" come to try to take your assault rifles away!

Now don't you feel ridiculous?

Oh, I get it! Because you believe that one entire side is doing something bad, you feel entitled to do that very same thing!

:bravo:

That wasn't acceptable in kindergarten and it's sure as hell not acceptable now. Be best.

That just supports the point that you're all as bad as each other. Blaming this kind of thing on supporters any one political party makes you part of the problem.

When you start UNIVERSALLY condemning violence I'll like your post. Until then it's just one-sided poutrage… :peace

You talking about peaceful conservative rallies where Trump advocates violence from his cultists, and offers to pay the legal fees of those cultists who perpetrate violence at his behest ?

So you admit to just making stuff up and attempt to justify that by claiming democrats do it too.... :doh

You must have examples of Democrats saying anti-government means Republican with no proof. Or are you 'extrapolating' again... :peace
 
The nasty spirit of Trump has divided the nation, no question.

So? Rick Wilson, George Will, Steve Schmitt, James Comey, Rex Tillerson, Nichole Wallace - none of them Democrats and none of them can stand trump.

You really don't understand that disliking trump doesn't automatically make you a Democrat? Of course you don't, never mind.

I don't know how ISIS or the Taliban can have many convictions because they blow themselves up before any trial.
