Roger Stone Posts and Deletes Photo of Judge With Crosshairs

No I do not have the right to threaten any judge and an anonymous internet forum is not the same as a public social media page (where he asks for $$$). How pathetic is it that you are comparing what Roger Stone did to you getting owned in every debate by "a bunch of leftists."

The photo in question was taken from a Russian Propaganda news site. I'm beginning to think you may not know much of what you are talking about here.

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, as you know my client stands accused of murder. But there's no evidence that the defendant said he was committing murder at the time the victim passed away. You must acquit!
 
(Sigh)

Stone is a bombastic attention-seeker. But only someone suffering from confirmation bias would believe that photo was in any way an actual "threat."

IMO Stone's history of "bombastic free expression" would lead a reasonable person to interpret this as more of his typical "I've got my sights on this individual" rhetoric.

Before you ask, IMO he probably took it down as soon as he realized the post's meaning would likely be misinterpreted by the usual suspects. :coffeepap:

"The usual suspects"?

Oh, you mean people who aren't Trump sycophants. Got it.
 
if he's going to post veiled threats to a judge, then perhaps he'd be more comfortable waiting for trial in jail. no risk of social media there.

I seem to remember you saying you are a lawyer a while back? Do i remember that correctly?

Regardless, just posting a picture of the judge on instagram is disrespectful. Shes just doing her job. Posting a picture with crosshairs is just blatant disregard for the american legal system.

Even if you take this as a "i have my sights on you" thing, what would you expect a judge to do if you said that to a federal judge overseeing your case?

Why do you think the number of words you type or the tone you use is fooling anyone?

PS: Are you trying to kill the God of Irony with that ending sentence, oh most usual of suspects? Stone is close to Trump, so you try to wrap a partisan knee-jerk defense with words. Same substance every time.








I'd love to see Attorney Adverse try telling a judge that he better be good because Attorney Adverse is watching him carefully. Be a shame if anything happened out there, so be careful judge 'ole pal....

:lamo
Crosshairs mean "I'm keeping my eye on you".

AHHHHHHHHHH it's so stupid...it's just to much. I cannot believe he's serious, it's got to be contrived trolling.
 
This is why I said Roger Stone is bad guy, a crook, a liar, and an overall douchebag. What will it take to lift the partisan blinders??????

Furthermore,

Sure sounds like Stone wants to get thrown in jail.

I think this might be a tactic. Try to provoke the judge and then pardon stone when she does something about it.

This presidency is making a mockery of everything this country stands for.

If one of my clients posts that about a judge, it would be very bad for them. I wish I could say it was unbelievable that the defense mounted was truly meant, but that ship sailed a long time ago as to an awful lot of DP posters....




Putting the judge in your federal criminal case in crosshairs?

SERIOUSLY?!


I suppose he could have one-upped himself by simply lighting himself on fire at arraignment, but still. He must've gotten away with far too much already.

Yeah, give the old guy a break. Hopefully, pretty soon he’ll have a bunch of new friends in prison who’ll be spending a fair amount of time looking at his Nixon tattoo. ;)
 
Thread title:Roger Stone Posts and Deletes Photo of Judge With Crosshairs

I really love the post and delete, tweet and delete stuff that goes on today because it just warms the cockles of my marketeers heart. You get to spew your garbage (re propaganda). You get the "benefit" of having the effect that you wanted to have and then you get to delete with the delete acting as some sort of left handed retraction. Its beautiful....unscrupulous but beautiful. Its an extension on the well worn old saw in publishing that "nobody really sees the retraction".

As I have always said, we who have reached high executive positions in Marketing are actually political animals. The dif is representing a product is much cleaner business than representing a candidate. Outside of that, the disciplines are remarkably similar. They get away with stuff representing a candidate that I would NEVER have even tried representing a product. But other marketeers will recognize my attraction at least in spirit and in theory to things that are "beautiful but unscrupulous". That said, I must admit that there is "the dark side" where engineers believe marketeers live and there is the darker side. Stone represents the darker side if not the darkest side.

Posted and then deleted.
Roger Stone has never "posted and then deleted" something before EVER in his entire political career. He makes a point of that when he talks. So to see him do so at this juncture indicates that Roger Stone is a cornered animal, and for the first time in his life, he might be scared shirtless.
 
I am defending free expression and a reasonable (as opposed to confirmation biased) interpretation of same.

As for the rest of your typically ad hominin response? :doh



I've got my eyes on you is NOT a "direct threat." It simply means I am watching you carefully, so you better be good. Isn't that what parents, teacher's, and employer's usually mean when they say it?



Stone rarely seems to think before he speaks, so yeah I'd say his comment was par for the course. :shrug:

He did what the SCOTUS said not to do, yell fire in a theater by threatening a judge. That is not free expression but an outright threat. Only a true trunpster would think otherwise. I hope they put his ass in jail where it will end up anyway.

Donald Trump has not shown one ounce of sympathy for his criminal co-conspirators that have been thrown in jail. NOT ONE. There will be no pardons, b/c they have been shown to have helped and aided the Mueller Investigation.
 
The same right you seem to feel free to use by telling me what I am or am not doing. The right of Free expression. How many times have you and the other echo chamber usual suspects told those you oppose or disagree with in this Forum what they can or can't, should or should not, are or are not?

He is free to say what he wants subject to actual slander or actual threats covered under appropriate law.

As for how I can defend the "indefensible?" Among several reasons I will remind you of what I consider the difference between a real Liberal and a Leftist:



Now I see those same usual suspects are coming in to pile on (also) as usual. So tagline time. :coffeepap:

If you want to say something bad about me or others or say something that is unarguably terrible, so be it. I will defend that. But I will not and you should not defend someone who is obviously trying to threaten a judge. If he wasn't he and his lawyers would not have written an apology too the judge, which he has done. I think he realizes he stepped way over the line this time. I hope she still puts him in the clink for a few days just to remind him you do not do as he has done.
 
Trump and all of his people are the law unto themselves the Constitution be damned over there.

Stone shows himself as the Roy Cohn Richard Nixon and Donald Trump thug that he is.

No one who supports or defends the Constitution can defend the unmistakable reference to a firearm aimed at or toward the judge in this case. Without the Bill of Rights the USA would simply become Russia which pleases Trump and His Fanboys.
 
Has a defendant ever threatened a judge and not done time as a result?
 
Not bad enough yet Roger huh. The ole' post it and delete it trick was not bad enough. You had to post another that just moved the target away from the Judge's head and then have the audacity to apologize.

Smack the crap out of him Judge. Stone has never been more than a no talent PeeWee Herman. He is a right wing nut job at best. Smack the crap out of him and keep smacking the crap out of him. He likes it and he won't relinquish the delirium of his own self importance easily.

Stone's lawyer removed it.

Stone's lawyer apologized to the judge.

Stone still has said nothing about posting it or removing it. Neither has Stone apologized or recanted. You and Stone alike.
 
if he's going to post veiled threats to a judge, then perhaps he'd be more comfortable waiting for trial in jail. no risk of social media there.

Guarantee: indigent defendant posts that on facebook --> bail revoked.
 
No you are defending criminals threatening judges. Not everything is about free expression and crimes cannot be boiled down to that.

Ungodly uncivilized democrats make offenders of their enemies while promoting their own wicked selves and their evil anti-American agenda to the damage of the whole nation.

Being unlike your god is good.

I can use your god as the reference point of wrong and wrongdoing. What not to be, do, say. How not to act and behave. What not to believe.

Thanks for being here. You do a great service to us.

A Godsend indeed.
 
I think it's sad and pathetic that you would defend someone publicly threatening the judge presiding over his trial. Wtf do you think posting crosshairs on a judge's head means? I swear there is no depth you Trump cultists will not stoop to.


Good thing he never publically threatened the judge. He did something distasteful, he didn't threaten the judge.
