He also made another threat, Titan. 

I will respond as nice as I can without saying what I would like to.

1. By another, I assume you mean after the case a few months ago when you thought I was threatening you. I thought that was over since we met face to face in Auburn where I assured you I was in no way threatening you and was actually giving you some advice

2. The latest thing I think you refer to was again an honest attempt to caution you what you post on a message board. It was in no way intended it as a threat. I wonder how many other posters here would say the words you did and have it on their post history.

I assure you I won't offer any more advice or suggestions since you seem to be a very insecure person.

And I for  sure wouldn't call you "a piece of s***" as you did me.

Well seems that with the amount of Americans that can be influenced by words or rhetoric, appears we might need to revisit the influence of music.

Take me, went to dinner with the girlfriend and this song came on on the way home.... unfortunately we were influenced with our weak minds:

You’ve called it out on both sides? Seriously? In this entire thread you’ve argued against those of us that said Trump’s rhetoric incited this. That isn’t calling it out on your side. You expect me to believe that bull**** then call it out with your guy at the top. 

I certainly attribute responsibility at the top if rhetoric is the issue. I just hold that responsibility, then, extends beyond him also. It’s the extension of responsibility you take dispute with. No side’s hands are clean in this.

It is evident you disagree. That’s fine. I’ve been very clear as have you.

The “both sides” argument is ridiculous. There is only one side that controls all branches of government. One side is setting the National tone. Now as for the left, we’ve held our own accountable. Hillary apologized  for the deplorable comment. Al Franken was forced out. Maxine Waters only has a platform because she’s a target of Trump. It seems that the “both sides” argument is only made when the right side doesn’t want to hold their own accountable.

Either you want to hold everyone accountable or you don’t. At no point have I argued that the President should not be held accountable. You’re missing the mark entirely. 

And no, “one side” does not control all branches of government. That’s a completely false notion.

You’ve made no statement in this thread that he should be held accountable but have instead argued that both sides engage in this kind of rhetoric. You excused Trump’s suggestion that second amendment people do something about Clinton by saying it was hypothetical if she were elected and appointed judges. I know you and I will never agree on this but I honestly marvel at how you are so incredibly intelligent and insightful in other areas but are so blinded when it comes to Trump.

I’ve stated numerous times that if rhetoric is the problem, President shares responsibility. Under this proposition, my entire premise is that rhetoric is not a one way street. Both sides should share responsibility if we actually want change. I did not excuse his second amendment statement, I simply provided context for it in the same way another poster provided context for Holder’s quote. Both men, through their words, expressed rhetoric that can conceivably contribute to division and hence, inspire unbalanced minds.

Logic necessitates that my premise includes Trump’s rhetoric. To hold otherwise is error. Perhaps you take a categorical approach, whereas I take an all-inclusive one. I am sorry if you think my theory detracts from the culpability you would impute to the President. Do with it what you will.

The difference is that one man’s rhetoric did contribute to a violent act. The bomber wasn’t an Eric Holder fan. He wasn’t a Clinton fan. He was a Trump fan. So bringing up “well Holder said” or “Clinton said” isn’t really relevant.

If you can conclusively demonstrate [assuming it's even possible] that one man's words (the President's) served as the sole contributing rhetoric for the act, to the exclusion of the relevancy of other rhetoric, thereby warranting condemnation of the former only, please do. It should be preferable to provide more than "he was a Trump fan." Abrogate my all-inclusive approach. The same should be requested of those on the right who attribute blame to democrats when an actor intends harm to republicans.

Until then, I will remain steadfast in my position on this matter. It is also my proposition that an all-inclusive approach will foster unity and change more effectively than would yours.

I would love for him to live up what he's been running on.  Unfortunately, I'm not sure he is strong enough to withstand the assault from other Dems when/if he makes it to D.C.

While I never had an issue with politics in my classes there was a definite shift from individual ideas to regurgitation when I went back for my second. Students also had issues with classes that had competition involving projects/mock trials/debates. They took it all personally and couldn't leave it in the classroom.

Come on man. I don't think there is one person in here who has ever made the claim that nobody on the left is acting undesirably. We are fighting you on the idea that the left and right are on equal ground these days, when it comes to politically motivated acts of terror. There is a big difference in a man pulling a knife out on a republican while shouting f Trump and someone attempting to bomb 14 of Trump's most outspoken critics or shooting up and killing multiple people in their places of worship, or running over people.
