Inspired by the most recent right wing outrage concerning "8647", I, Hatuey wondered :

Since they received pardons it is clear some people do not think it was a call to violence. What say the good people of Debate Politics? Come cry if you need to..

😅

When I first heard the chant I thought "oh, maybe they mean hang him like a favorite picture!" until I saw the makeshift gallows and noose.

More closely related to this current "outrage" are these posts:

Apparently the MAGAverse is in need of a glossary of terms so they can use them uniformly. Given the three on Gaetz's list are still among the living, I'll assume at least he knows the correct meaning of "86" as a verb.

I would say yes, but the gallows that they constructed appeared to have been only a symbolic one.

No. It was not a call to violence - any more than former FBI Director James Comey's "8647" in sea shells was a call to violence.

Calling for Pence's hanging was stupid and callous, by a group of bad actors. They never expected or even hoped that Pence would be hung. Likewise, Comey's calling for 47 to be 86ed was stupid and callous, as Comey is a bad actor. Comey doesn't expect someone to actually 86 47.

How do you know that given the fact they stormed the US Capitol and assaulted police officers? I'm curious as to what you think they meant when that chant is a call for someone to be hung.

Obviously, if they had wanted Mike Pence to actually be hung, they would have done it - not shout into bullhorns.

Obviously, if James Comey wanted 47 to actually be 86ed, he would do it himself - not arrange tiny sea shells on a beach.

Thank you. Strictly symbolic. Crudely made, loosely nailed to the top of a ladder. There were no means to hang anything, let alone a person. And in my opinion a really stupid thing to do.

They couldn't get to Pence.. If they could, they might have killed him..They sent 100+ police to the hospital.. BTW this isn't about Comey.. Unless u too believe what happened on 1/6 was just a kegger... Lol

Yeah - right.


That's hilarious! :LOL:🤣

Clearly then, you will stop suggesting there have been assassination attempts on Trump's life as actually wanting to assassinate Trump means they would have done it.

Correct? Just asking questions.

😄

Wow. That sure is a really dumb straw-man.

No, your straw-man argument is really dumb. You obviously didn't think it through. And by the way, there HAVE been assassination on Trump's life.

It was tried, the bullet missed killing him by a matter of an inch or two, or was that just a protest?
 
You made the assertion that there was not call to violence because no one actually succeeded. I am just showing everyone you aren't consistent.

😄
Sorry no. I never said that at all. Here's what YOU said:

That's a dopey straw-man that YOU fabricated. It has NOTHING to do with "calling for Mike Pence's hanging by Jan 6th participants a call for violence".

If you have argument, then make it.

It was a mostly peaceful assassination.

You clearly said that if someone wanted to actually kill Pence they would have. Therefor there was no call to violence.

I am possiting that if someone actually wanted to kill Trump, they would have. Therefor there was no assassination attempt on Trump.

You are having a spasm and claiming it isn't the same, but it is. You need to calm down and try to be consistent.

😄

Yes.

But THAT'S NOT THE TOPIC OF THE THREAD. We're discussing the protesters calling for Pence to be hung.

BULLSHIT. of COURSE there have been assassination attempts on Trump.

WTF are you talking about??

Nah there are no spasms. You are fantasizing. You obviously cannot formulate an intelligent argument, so instead you fabricate straw-man nonsense.
 
Yes.

BULLSHIT of COURSE there have been assassination attemps on Trump.

Nah there are no spasms. You are fantasizing. You cannot formulate an intelligent argument, so instead you fabricate straw-man nonsense.

Your post seems really unhinged.

I think you just need to accept that what is good for the goose must be good for the gander.

Clearly if success indicates intent, then in both cases, there was no intent to actually carry out violence, and there can be no call to violence. This is if we follow your inconsistent thought patterns.

However since your position is woefully inconsistent, just you so far share your silly opinion and violence and a call to is accepted to have happened by most observers in both cases.
