How Vance and a Neo-Nazi Group Inflamed Tensions in Springfield

Saturday, September 14, 2024

The path the inflammatory rumors took from the fever swamps to the debate stage to an on-the-ground, Trump-fueled furor in Springfield is a new spin through a story arc that has become familiar in the MAGA era: The most out-there right-wing extremists--including, in this case, notorious neo-Nazis--and GOP politicians reinforce each others' narratives, with real-world ramifications for everyday people.

Yup.

Fmr Pres Trump seems to target a group in his comments, and the militia in his cult seem to follow through on his accusations.

No evidence or justice seems to be needed.

Just a militia obeying orders.

This appears to be the America that fmr Pres Trump wants to put into place.

Reminds me of the good ole days when we had maybe 12, 15 tops nazis here in America

I distinctly recall being assured of this here on the DR not that long ago, (Obama era)

I wonder if those two will make an appearance on this thread and share all that again, that is, if they can take the time away from their "invitation only" safe space

Not likely... they just take turns launching sock puppets.

Yeah I do not envy RCade in this respect a all.

He has to deal with all manner of accusations.

From targeted censorship to a plethora of (random) new aliases.

Been then, done that. And i was not even running a political-oriented message board.

All I can say is ... kudos to RCade for this most august discussion forum.

Well, yeah.

Could that be the reason why the Trump sons pushed to choose him?

That Sen Vance seems to be OK with selling himself to the highest bidder (in this case, apparently, Mr Thiel).

Just guessing, but I wish I knew.

So they think Haitians are eating cats and dogs but call in bomb threats thereby closing schools sending Haitian kids home without lunch........

Someone didn't think this through.

Or do they not really believe the racist crap they spew?

When we are willing to see children terrorized rather than stop telling lies about their families, we should step back, forget about our dogs and cats for a moment, and ask who abducted our consciences.

A threat of University Campus shooting shuts down Wittenberg University Campus in Springfield Ohio.

"All activities are canceled on Sunday, Sept. 15." announcement read, "following an email that threatened a potential shooting on-campus tomorrow".

Wittenberg Police are cooperating with the Springfield Police Division and the FBI to investigate this threat of shooting at Springfield Ohio college

OK, allow me to take a step back and ask a simple question....

Should presidential campaign rhetoric inspire and, apparently, provoke violence within the Country?

My next question...

Should Sen Vance and/or fmr Pres Trump happen to hear a song by, say. Total Coelo, will they go off the rails again with their rhetoric?

Toto (Total) Coelo - I Eat Cannibals (Extended 12 Inch Mix, 1982)

The strange part, to me, is that I am even asking such a question of candidates for the White House.

But, there it is.

Democrats are historically and consistently inciters for political violence and creating more turmoil. Not my original idea but we know truth and reality when we see it. The leftists will destroy the world. We need them removed from power in our halls of government.

lmao!... says the greatest evidence against that proposition we've ever seen.

Other than maybe his Kult Leader.

You are like a near perfect reverse barometer of truth and reality.

And you don't know it, which is the funny part.
