meatloaf | TWO OUT OF THREE AIN'T BAD! | image tagged in meatloaf | made w/ Imgflip meme maker
I'm quite vocal about masks not working and any kind of mask or vaccine mandates and that Fauci is a mass murderer.

I will quietly commemorate the 9/11 anniversary and observe any and all Christian holidays.

Since when in the actual F**K has observing a religious holiday made you a terrorist? Oh, that's right, they got rid of the First Amendment, I forgot about that.

To be fair, they do not say that anyone who fits here is a terrorist, but that they are worried about terrorism from radicals who may fall in here. Especially on that last one, people are mistaking it to mean people who stop on 9/11 to remember the tragedy and people who celebrate any religious holiday are a threat, but they meant that terrorists like to choose significant dates like that to cause the most emotional damage they can.

I guess I’m a terrorist because two of those are true.

In a statement, the U.S. Capitol Police said it accepts the medical examiner's finding. "This does not change the fact Officer Sicknick died in the line of duty, courageously defending Congress and the Capitol," the statement said.

Great, so that means he agrees that Officer Sicknick died of natural causes, which means he did not die as the result of homicide, which means your original point was false.

Officials had said that Sicknick died a day after he sustained injuries during the attack. The Justice Department had opened a federal murder investigation into his death.

Two men — Julian Elie Khater of State College, Pa., and George Pierre Tanios of Morgantown, W.Va. — were arrested last month over allegedly spraying a chemical on Sicknick. They were charged with conspiring to injure officers and assaulting federal officers and other crimes.

Sicknick died of natural causes from injuries sustained from the hellish, controlled, trump rioters

"somebody: *beats up another person*" - But that didn't happen to Officer Sicknick. Go look at the facts of the case. The only thing that happened to him was he was sprayed with a chemical spray which affected him for 20 minutes. This happened around 2:20 p.m.

"person: *dies from injuries*" Officer Sicknick returned to duties and collapsed that night around 10 p.m. The cause of death was a stroke.

"you: death: natural causes" Yes, that's correct.

Imagine that a man gets a paper cut, and two hours later he has a heart attack. It would be silly and false to claim that the pin prick caused the heart attack without showing evidence of a causal connection.

You are *assuming* a causal connection between the chemical spray and the stroke, but this has already been examined by the medical examiner.

Looks like you didn't read the rest of the article....

"It was not immediately clear how the medical examiner's report would affect ongoing investigations into Sicknick's death and how it might affect the charges..."

And so here's a follow up from this month:

"Appeals court orders release of man charged with macing police during Capitol riot"

This is a closed case. The Trump rioters didn't kill the officer. End of story.

You pasted from an article from March of this year. In April, it was revealed that Sicknick died of natural causes.

Look, I'm just going to have to level with you - the man died of natural causes according to the facts. There's no point in trying to fit a square peg into a round hole. Just accept it and move on. I'm not going to make fun of you for changing your mind on this. I do understand that the media falsely reported that the man was clubbed to death with a fire extinguisher, so it's not like there weren't reports to that effect early on. I also understand that Democratic politicians kept repeating this false information. However, the truth eventually came out. You were misled, that's all.

No. In fact, I pay pretty close attention to the news, and I didn't hear about any Trump rioters who "killed cops". Which cops were killed by Trump rioters?

If you're referring to Officer Sicknick, he died of natural causes. NPR is the source, hardly a bastion of conservative thought https://www.npr.org/2021/04/19/988876722/capitol-police-officer-brian-sicknick-died-of-natural-causes-medical-examiner-ru

Other than that, who are you referring to? You've yet to provide any specifics to Phids on this thread except for an unhelpful link to Bung.

You really need to read that article and you need to have your buddy Phids read it as well. It confirms the violent nature of the Trump insurrection and the actions and intentions of the Trump supporters there. So thank you for helping prove my position.
Also, its foolish to think that all the violent actions against him did not contribute to this young man having a stroke at his age. Sprayed with chemicals, spat on, attacked by a violent mob of white supremacists and Trump supporters. How many of those officers have already committed suicide?

You are disgusting. America will prevail.

The medical examiner found that Sicknick died of natural causes. Therefore, the rioters did not kill him.

I can understand if you were told the wrong information, but now that we have shown you the correct information, the burden is on you to accept it.

I'm going to take a guess and assume that you thought that Officer Sicknick was killed by Trump rioters. That was false information that was corrected months ago when it was discovered he died of natural causes.

Please understand that most people hear a narrative that the politically-biased media wants provide. Please also understand that this narrative is just that; it is not the truth, nor is it reality, but a "story" that is told for political purposes.

As I said before, I pay pretty close attention to the news. If you want to know anything else about the Capitol riot, rather than the narrative that is out there, just let me know.

I think the real shame here is that misinformation sticks around for so long, even after the truth has been revealed. I really think we're living in a post-truth era in which it is really difficult to know what is real and what is not. Best we can do is tell people to frequently second-guess, or third-guess political stories in the mainstream media.

Your original meme quite clearly stated, ""The party of law and order, yet they beat and kill cops!", along with a picture from the Capitol riot.

I asked you which Trump rioters killed cops. You proceeded to ask me if I was "living under a rock", implying that there was some obvious event when Trump rioters killed cops.

So far, that has turned out to be fake news, which you brought up.

Look, my point here is not to drag you through the mud. However, you do have to realize that you have to operate in the realm of facts rather than the realm of narrative. It does no good to promote the false narrative that Trump rioters "kill cops".
0 ups, 3y
You have to start using facts and not Trump propaganda. They killed cops. They caused the death of cops. They were there with anything they could use as a weapon and even zipties. They were there to do harm in the name of Trump. FACTS!!!! Indisputable facts. They even said so themselves. They all said it was what Trump wanted. And the evidence that Trump planned it, supported it, and celebrated it is overwhelming. FACTS!!! They would have all had guns if they didn't need to be searched before entering the city. The leader of Proudboys was arrested the day before with weapons in his possession.....and Trump knew about it. Stop spreading fake news. And once again...this meme is 100% accurate.

You are not entitled to make things up like you did about Officer Sicknick.

You should really search for the truth, wherever it leads, instead of trying to prove a false narrative correct.
0 ups, 3y
I never brought up Sicknick. You did. And you need to follow your own advise. Until you admit that the insurrection was a violent attempt by Donald Trump and his allies to overthrow the government of the United States all in the name of his ego and based on the Big Lie, nothing you say is true or holds any weight. You are either a non-American, or a crackpot white supremacist standing by and standing ready. And by the way, everything in the meme you responded to is 100% true, accurate, and factual. Look it up in any way you wish. Even use right-wing propaganda sites. They'll show you. Dominion's lawsuit goes forward despite Lindell's clown show, Guiliani's bankruptcy and disbarment, or Powell's pleading with the court to dismiss the charges because "no normal person would believe her accusations since they were not based on real facts."

The facts do not support a claim that the rioters "killed cops".

Holding on to that claim despite the lack of evidence suggests delusion on your part.

Trumpers close their eyes to actual proof. They say "show proof" but when you do, they close their eyes and block their ears and proclaim fake news. Well it was a violent insurrection with police being assaulted, maces, spat on, and anything used as a weapon. Sitnick died from being assaulted by Trump supporters in the violent Trump Insurrection. Nothing you say changes that. Not even your right-wing media that lies to you just like Mr.180, Mike McCarthey who care more about saving the Insurrectionist Party than he does about truth and justice. America will never forget. History will not record that event as a peaceful gathering by tourists. And justice will prevail. Stop watching Fox News and OAN. they are not news sources.
And BTW..why are so many of those cops committing suicide?
And BTW..why did you people in the insurrectionist party chastise the brave officers who testified. I thought you people backed the blue. But as usual, if someone speaks out against your lord and savior Trump, they are fake news.

You're spreading fake news now. Stop it.

Even the left-leaning mainstream media isn't pretending the rioters killed Sicknick. This was from April:

You can "seriously doubt" what you want, but at the end of the day, the medical examiner ruled he died of natural causes. You must accept that reality.
0 ups, 3y
The only thing I "accept" is that the violent Trump Insurrection caused death and destruction at our US Capitol because rabid Trump supporters and white supremacists were doing Trump's bidding to overthrow the US government, violate the US Constitution, and assassinate the VP and others all in the name of a purposely planned lie designed to massage the ego of a life long fascist anti-American, white supremacist dictator's ego.
And you not only supported the lies and violence, but you also participated and celebrated the event. Justice is coming. In one form or another. Justice is coming.
SUPPORT THE BLUE!!!!!!! ALL THE BLUE!!!!!!!

You are holding on to a delusion. I have told you the facts, and you still deny them. You need help.
