“Bearing false witness against thy neighbor,” a Maga-Republican tactic.

Is Bernie Sanders responsible for james hotchkinson's actions the day he attacked Steve Scalise and the other Republicans at the baseball field that day?

I can say as a target of "Bernie Bots," on-line, "if you want an argument, you'll have to choose a different subject." Sanders opposed the "Brady Bill," and other legislation which attempted to keep dangerous firearms out of the hands of those likely to use them for violence. Vermont is home to gun manufacturers and worldwide distributors. His 2016 campaign "Chief Strategist," Tad Devine had worked directly with Paul Manafort getting Putin's hand chosen candidate for President of Ukraine elected. Their boss is a member of the successor agency to the KGB and was one of the Russians charged by Mueller's team. Do I think a Sanders extremist is capable of the same level of political violence as a Trump extremist? Yes. If Sanders had a 1-6-21 rally, his people would have stormed the capitol. It has to do with the type of people attracted to populist movements.

Nice deflection. You didn't answer the question I posed, you answered your own. You post daily about how Trump is a tyrant and is responsible for a wave of political violence due to his rhetoric, a premise that I disagree with, but am not arguing with this question. By the logic of your premise Bernie Sanders is responsible for the actions of James Hotchkinson. In your deflection you reduced the responsibility not to Bernie but to the individual "extremist", which is a premise I agree with.

There are crazy people out in the world and they will do crazy things inspired by the demons in their heads that latch onto any fragment of reality they can. Jodie Foster isn't responsible for the actions of the guy who shot Reagan, Trump is not responsible for this guy who attacked Paul Pelosi, and Bernie is not responsible for James Hotchkinson. Now when people fundraise and provide material support, like our Vice President raising bail money for BLM rioters, that's a different story.

Just because you didn't like my answer, doesn't mean that I did not answer your question. The biggest difference between Sanders and Trump is that dozens of Trump's 1-6-22 Rioters have said that they were motivated by his rhetoric to commit their violent acts. Sander's one bad actor is dead, but I willl grant you that he was probably motivated by something Bernie said. Oh, and Trump is possibly on the verge of being indicted fo his criminal role in the uprising.

Another quality post. Have you voted yet? 😁

I am in Oregon, where we want everyone to have the opportunity to vote. Registration is automatic for all people 18-years or older who get a Driver's License or State I.D. Party registration is optional. They mail us voters' guides and ballots the month before elections. I heard the person in charge of elections for the state describe the process followed by the counties for secure tabulation of votes and safeguards against fraud. I was impressed. I got my ballot a couple weeks ago and mailed it back last week. I voted Pure Blue.

Portland is a sewer filled with the dregs of society. I’ll bet you are from Portland.

You've clearly never been there

But backwater shacks with septic tanks are so much betterer, plus no time wasted on that edumacashun stuff neither,,,

It's a win-win. Closer to nature, and you save time on "liberal" stuff like reading books and bathing.

... and easier to skip 'thuh vaxx' so you won't mutate into a talking Bonobo taking too many marijuanas like them Hippies down in Berkeley,,,

‘Failure of Leadership’: Oregon’s Lifelong Democrats Explain Why They’re Voting GOP

“It’s single-party control. Things are going downhill: inflation, crime, homelessness, addiction, overdoses. Here in Oregon, look outside—you see the homelessness, people dying in the streets from overdoses, people having psychotic breaks. It’s in shambles right now. It wasn’t always like this.”

How the f**k would you know?

Had family there. Many, many visits to Portland over many years.

It’s a sewer, and getting worse.

Where do you live?

Lives in Portland, ORFeb 28

As a resident of Portland for nigh on 25 years, I can safely say there is enough reason to hold this city in contempt with out having to make up one thing. In fact, I would say these photos are reason enough. As somebody who has spent their adult life trying to fight the humanitarian crisis that is the homeless catastrophe, I can say as far as the city goes, it cares very little about human life. Politics? Yes. They talk a good game, but human life is less sacred than the proper words. In 2017, a survey estimated that there were 38,000 homeless people in the metro area. I have had children as young as four beg me for food. I have seen people with a baby live under a free overpass. No one gives a care. They are quite content letting a child die in front of them while they make up clever political catch phrases like “Reich-wing news.” Which only divide people and keep them from solving the very real issues. In many ways, Portland is a destroyed society, a future dystopia. The rich step over the poor with their metal coffee cups and laptop computers, on their way to their electric cars, thinking “oh what a good person I am.” The trash, the rats, the drug needles, the crime, the human waste, and the waste of human life are a lot to over look, but somehow people do. The pictures were taken along one of the bike paths on the I205 corridor which is now a miles long homeless camp. It’s just one of many. The camps crisscross the city. I have other photos on the same subject taken from around the city. Dozens in fact.

I have seen homelessness from a number of "angles." As Administrative Officer for Behavorial Health Services at a large University Affiliated, VA Medical Center, then as Western Regional Director for Public Affairs for the VA, I can attest to some small number of self-interests keeping the VA from solving Veteran Homelessness over the years. The VA routinely returned money earmarked for his program that went unspent, to Congress. After leaving the VA I participated in the "Homeless Census," a couple of years. A lot of well-meaning people want to help solve this problem, from all sides.

Then came Barrack Obama. He did away with the requirement that Veterans had to be "Clean and Sober," before they could be given homeless assistance by the VA. Record numbers of Veterans and their families got off of the streets. Some cities, like New Orleans reported zero homeless veterans. We can judge their lifestyles, fold our arms and let them clog up sidewalks in cities across America. Or, we can follow Obama's lead and solve their immediate needs, then deal with their mental illness and chemical dependency issues. I suspect we will do nothing of substance and blame "the other guy," for our failure to act.

You sound like one of those Oregon liberal, long-haired, snaggletooth hippie want-to-bes…

I’ll bet you hit all the protests.

Wow! The only part you got right is, I currently live in Oregon.

Naw… I think I nailed it. Right down to the snaggletooth part.

Portland was, and still is, a sewer because of one party (Democrats rule there) local politics… not because of anything Obama did or did not do. The long-haired snaggletooth libs can only blame themselves.

Now that I think about it, I’ve seen this same goofy copypasta from you before.

What’s next? You helped Al Gore invent the internet?

Perhaps he should move?

I know I would.
