Why are these would be assassins as competent as the adminstration. 😭

    They're crazy people. There are no serious ones because there's no serious chance of taking him out. This isn't like when someone snuck into the white house while Obama was asleep. He's extra paranoid and has extra security too.

    In the 80s, the CIA developed a microwave voice of G-d weapon and could aim it at individuals or crowds, to stimulate brain waves that the targeted individuals would "hear" as voices. No one who wasn't targeted would hear it.

    Maybe he was suppose to appear BEFORE the elections, but missed a train or something. Assassination attempts boost political support

    Why would you attempt this in a stolen vehicle? Has bro never heard of "don't break the law while breaking the law"?

    Using a stolen vehicle is the only way to get away with many crimes. To be sure this guy probably didn't cover his other tracks though, harder and harder to do.

    Not that I trust the police's version of events here I don't. There are a lot of crazies out there though idk.

    In case you're asking about the phrase itself, it means to let someone continue to do what they're doing to get results that will probably happen from the path they're on.

    umm... I think the commenter who used the metaphor was trying to say that they want to wait and see what Miller will do before theY (or we) react.

    I disagree-- I don't think anyone needs to wait to see what this not-neo Nazi will do, as it's been crystal-clear what his intentions are since he was born. This guy came out of the uterus Siging Heil. he's the kind of guy who would call Hitler a 'pussy' for not going 'far enough'

    Bro right?? 😂 I absolutely am arguing with either multiple bots or one really angry dude with multiple accounts and terrible reading comprehension. I still like to push back a little to call them out for other users to see, but I’m definitely done replying now because I obviously batted a hive, and all the replies before yours are just nonsense. I’ve had a couple arguments with other bots or bad actors since the midterms, calling them out on their bullshit, so maybe I got flagged for attack or something, because I was not at all expecting this reaction from such a simple comment 😂

    Thank you for talking some sense into the situation. It was a bit disheartening to get swarmed with these responses and not see any normal people weighing in, so I appreciate you

    I don’t blame you at all, I spent a few minutes rereading everything wondering where i went wrong. I kept thinking there was a comment or something I missed because you kept getting downvoted and the replies were so aggressive over you trying to add clarification.

    Just ignore it and move on, it’s not worth the hit to your sanity lol

    Seriously, I myself was rereading everything to see if I did somehow miss something or accidentally responded to the wrong comment in the beginning, because I was just flabbergasted with the hostility and volume of replies 😅 That’s part of their MO though, “flood the zone” type stuff, just bombarding me with multiple accounts spewing aggressive nonsense.

    Definitely not replying to any more of those responses, since it would only end with more and more bullshit.

    Thanks again for backing me up

    Thank you for pointing this out; I thought that shit was off but I see it myself now, and they are very new accounts. I've reported and blocked because it's not just disruptive: bot accounts are supposed to self-identify. I suggest everyone else do the same.

    funny, because I'm pretty sure I know what I'm saying since they're my own words coming out of my own mouth. it's extraordinarily arrogant of you to think you can just hijack what I said and assign a different meaning to it while blaming ME for YOUR assholery.

    SO 1) you're definitely wrong, probably because you're obviously lying about what I said to make yourself look better

    1. if you can't defend your shitty argument, just admit you're wrong and dip out

    2. if you can't - or won't - do #1 or #2, at least just shut the fuck up and stop embarrassing yourself. there's only so many teenagers who will be entertained by an adult punching themselves in the face

    No, you definitely weren’t. You got called out, and you think I’m dumb enough to fall for your deflection? you should definitely know better by now. And I suspect you do.

    I mean, that’s pretty on-brand for you, but your bullshit still isn’t gonna work here.

    Others may have given up by now, but I’m gonna keep going until you either answer for the shit you said, OR, you just give up and go away

    My dude, I said this to cruseo. Why would I say “they’re saying” if I was trying to refute what cruseo was saying? I would’ve said “you’re saying”.

    Ok, here’s my defense.

    I said:

    No, they’re saying leave the would-be attempted assassin alone to see what happens

    Here’s how I defend it:

    I think that when shweddy said “let him cook”, he meant “let the would-be attempted assassin keep doing what he’s doing”.

    There. Maybe phrasing it like I’m talking to a five-year-old will help your AI parse information better. Hope it helps!

    Maybe phrasing it like I’m talking to a five-year-old

    You had to know that anything else you said vanished the second you said this.

    And, of course, the only response to this is “fuck you“

    Because this is the most petulant, childish, non-sequitur you could possibly have mustered. It’s also the ultimate surrender, admitting that you’re wrong and you know it.

    I both accept your surrender, and I have blocked you because I don’t wanna hear any more of your bullshit.

    Continue torturing yourself if you must, but I will not allow you to continue torturing me

    “Don’t blame others”, like the other dude isn’t just another bot in your net, sure 😂

    I’m not sure why I need to “back up what I said” when all I said was what I thought shweddy was saying, but if you are really struggling to understand what I said or why I said it, look at my latest reply to the “other guy”. Maybe that will help calibrate your AI too

    It’s you both your uncertainty and ignorance that led you into this disastrous conversation. And it is both of those flaws in your character by which I am certain you will fail to find your way out.

    I have better things to do this weekend than to educate you, so I’m going to block the foul disgustingness that comes out of you rather than try to correct you.

    It was God. I don't believe in God but I truly believe God sent that man to be his messenger on earth.

    Those that do claim to believe in the Lord, surely cannot refuse this as to do so would be denying faith. How is this any different to Moses, Noah and others who have heard the word of God and acted. Who are we to stop this man in his holy quest least we be smited by the Almighty ourselves!

    Also this is what this administration's DHS is saying after this administration's Secret Service arrested him, so... 🤷

    Oh, and they also take pains to say he is an "illegal alien" that entered the U.S. in March of 2024. So you know what THAT means. Biden had OPEN BOARDERS!!!!1111

    Honestly, probably just a case where someone needs access to mental health care and I'd like to believe that the DHS is telling the whole truth here. But everything about this administration and the conservatives are so terrible and so suspect.

    I used to be especially amused that the people that would spell borders improperly would also say "the country is full" and when asked, "is it really? Have you even driven through some of this country?" they'd get all huffy and suggest that "well, the illegals can all move in with YOU and other liberals!!!" [1]

    Thus bringing their misspelling full-circle, unwittingly...

    [1] Game, set, match, liberals! Consider yourself completely PWNED. LOL. LMAO, even. I'm not even slightly exaggerating, I've had several conversations that went pretty much exactly like that and the conservatives believe that is "winning" a "debate".
