Eric Trump says he was assaulted at a Chicago restaurant

It seems so far all we have is one side of things.

This may not even be political.
People get upset enough for assault w/ one another everyday, all day long for things which are not political.

We can always knot our political panties later. [ If you can untie their knots now that is ]




Oooh! the Boogie Man!

Yea, they are. And yes, it is political.

Aw, poor widdle Twumpy-pumpy was mortally wounded by a gob of spit. My heart bleeds and I am outraged by this act of terrorism! Letters of sympathy sent to the grieving relatives; no doubt traumatised for life by this act of brutal savagery.

That is some overwhelming evidence that the E Trump incident was political.

Not if you consider the city in question, the players and the fact some people have politized everything.

Regardless, she got her free shot in.

It could have been political.

If we're going to play the what's likely game
Humans commonly assault one another w/o politics being involved at all.
I strongly suspect that most cases of simple assault in the US are more strongly related to something which is not political than to something which is political.

Despite your assertion that "everything" in Chicago is politicized, I strongly suspect that most cases of simple assault in Chicago are more strongly related to something which is not political than to something which is political.


More information would let us reach a stronger conclusion.

For the sake of comparison, here's the thread on the Gianforte incident a few posters have mentioned - https://www.debatepolitics.com/breaking-news-mainstream-media/286999-republican-candidate-body-slams-guardian-reporter-montana.html?highlight=gianforte

I didn't go through the whole thing but did cover the first 570 posts. At that point in the thread about 95% of the posts were made by liberals blaming Republicans for supporting Gianforte's action. I only saw two posts that even came close to "celebrating" the act and both of those were more along the line of "he deserved it". To that end, it should also be pointed out that the reporter that got slammed was not merely sitting there eating his dinner. The reporter had been asked multiple times to leave a private meeting and refused to do so.

It's easy, using the internet, to make equivalencies between certain events but in no way, shape or form is spitting on someone because you disagree with them politically equivalent to body slamming someone because they won't leave you alone. Neither act is acceptable but they damned sure aren't equivalent in scope or nature.

You obviously didn't understand my posts about Gianforte. That thread you linked had nothing to do with my point which is that Eric's father celebrated the assault on the reporter by Trump. Pay attention.

OK. I think I have seen the light! Since Don Sr said something it's OK to spit on Don Jr.

I guess that makes sense...in some kind of liberal LaLa land.

Why are you lying again? You should have read my repeated posts about Eric (not Don Junior) being spit on and how wrong it was.

Is there something wrong today?

Thoughts are weapons, now, to progressives which (sidebar) allows progressives to attempt to reduce thought they disagree with. This behavior is rampant on college campuses, for example.

Eric is a capitalist which, to a prog (if the animal is a prog), is enough of a crime in itself.

And therein lies the problem. When it becomes acceptable by supporters of one party to abuse, physically, supporters of another political party then we get some idiot who feels a need to reciprocate.

I don't think the word reciprocate is appropriate. Since the level of this type of behavior with progressives is a multiple of powers more than that which happens on the right, I call the behavior inundating.
Of course, progs are going to call capitalism and free speech, for examples, atrocities.
