Even this 10th grade drop out can see right through your nonsensical postings.

I left halfway through 10th grade, maybe about the same time as you. I would not have opted for the military unless accepted into OCS. I believe if you had enough interest, worked hard enough to review this thread, what you now deemed nonsensical might make sense. Peace to you and yours!

Actually, it does not at all mean that. Like Robert DeNiro said in THE DEERHUNTER........... "this is this, this isn't something else ........ this is this."

Hmm! He was referring a rifle cartrige when he said that. Funny how you would choose that reference.

Things that make you go "hmmm!"

If Trump becomes unhinged, we might face unparalleled catastrophe!

Can't get President Trump out of your mind? Ever thing revolves around the hate of President Trump. A desperate act to post something of such nonsense.
At least get some exercise and go protest today. NOV. 4, IT BEGINS This Nightmare Must End: The Trump/Pence Regime Must Go! :mrgreen:

You are a bit more intelligent than most of these political hacks on here. I'm sad that you waste it.

I think most readers at first glimpse mistook the gist of my OP. I did not mean to connect the baseball field shooter, James Hodgkinson to the Vegas shooter, Stephen Paddock.

I mean to suggest a crazy, narcissistic man of means can pose a great threat as a result of becoming unhinged.

I don't know how thoroughly you reviewed this thread. I believe Trump could cause great damage.

That protest does not fit into my plans. It sounds like your kind of thing, not mine.
I find your support of Trump nonsensible.

I rather suspect that politics had nothing do to with the tragedy. I don't know if we are going to find the motivation for sure, but apparently, he had been on a prolonged losing streak , and had a substantial amount of wealth loss the last two years, demonstrating that if you gamble for long enough, the odds in the favor of the casino catch up with you.

Perhaps the most sensible post ever produced on this site. Particularly that underlined portion.

There is something romantic (to me anyways) about being a professional gambler, as in that is the way you earn your living. The problem is for some, maybe most, or hell for all I know it could be "all," the odds on the side of the casino house will catch up with you as you say.
 
Dumb.

The "mob mentality" IS legit, so yes, a person can indirectly influence bad behavior, but at the end of the day I believe that the individual is still responsible for their own actions.

I think that's entirely likely. If we haven't got at least a decent inkling by now, we may never.

Wink wink... I took a lot of mob hits by creating this thread. At the end of the day, I hope we reach our verdicts via Due Process and not Mob Rule. Some perpetrators tend to never own up to their responsibilities unless it casts them in a light of their liking.

In case some misunderstood my view, Paddock's Vegas rampage did not/does not indict Trump nor anyone else. Paddock's rampage brings fresh evidence of the capacity for harm when a narcissistic man of means becomes unhinged.

A disturbing question arises from your first link.

Lombardo said he didn't know offhand who Paddock was talking to when*he was talking about Trump, adding that it's the "only thing that we have seen that references politics."

Lombardo quoting "unnamed sources" who, it seems, heard Paddock talking to "someone"? Now why would a Sheriff do that? Maybe to throw a little red meat to the media?

Your second link is dismissible since it's nothing more than the musings of an "expert", full of "could", "possibly", "might", etc. It's nothing but speculation.

In the end, you...taking something supposedly said by "someone"...maybe...and then taking the opinion of someone else, morphing them together with your fear that Trump might come "unhinged"...strikes me as you fomenting fear and anxiety and basing it on what amounts to a conspiracy theory.

I think you should shop this to one of the Mainstream Media outlets...Mika and Joe comes to mind. Their talking potato heads could have fun with this.

I'm sure he has many, many people advising him to do so. But as I'm sure you're aware, I was talking about you and me and DP. Let's each of us individually try to raise the bar.

Collectively, you either cannot or choose not to recognize Trump's narcissistic nature and mental instability while POTUS poses unnecessary risk of catastrophe. Peace to you and yours.
I feel very comfortable at where I set the Bar.

But why complain? The American voters chose him for the job. His character is no longer worth crying about. It should be about policy now.

To each their own good fellow. I promise to worry little or worry not about what you think. Cheers!
