It was a probably a joke, he shouldn't say that, but then again, this is a free country and you cannot censor free speech. Hey, on the left, you have SJWs saying some vicious things towards white conservatives, and even black conservatives who don't think like the BLM crew. Trump needs to tone down the nonsense.

Two quick points -

In the world of online violence advocacy, SJWs take a FAR BACK SEAT to MRAs.

You're comparing the nominee of the GOP to a 12 year old in a chat room.

I don't know. He should not be dropped. If Trump is dropped by the GOP, the base will stay home. It's Trump or bust for them, I suppose. They don't want to hear Tom Ridge, Christie Whitman, Charlie Dent, Susan Collins, and other "globalist RINO corporatists" have to say about Trump. Those 4 failed them. Whitman gave NJ McGreevey to them in 2001, Tom Ridge to them made the DHS too powerful, Charlie Dent is not the "suburban conservative" that they voted for. Susan Collins is not "the New England conservative" that they thought they would get after "RINO Globalist" William Cohen joined the Clinton/Gore administration in 1997. The base is probably tired.

This is an emotional election. Emotions get the best out of people. In 2004, the Kerry/Edwards people were vicious to Bush/Cheney/Rove/Rumsfeld. A lot of leftists were going off whenever Bush was leading in Pa., Ohio, etc.

Except you absolutely can censor speech. It's why it is illegal to say bomb on an airplane or fire in a theater. Something that misrepresents a clear and present danger is absolutely illegal. Hate speech is illegal. This is borderline, but only because it is technically "political speech" and the least regulated of all types of speech.

True, but it's how he feels. He's still crazy.

You don't think that some leftists were calm after 11/2/2004? They weren't. Some of them vowed to move to Canada or Sweden or some other nation. Some of them were violent too, but with words.

However, all of this would not be happening if Democrats don't stop talking about gun control. They're only putting themselves in trouble by making this a big issue, year after year. Yes, we need background checks, but stop demonizing gun owners and guns, and stop making it a major issue. Let the states handle these issues.

He's crazy, but the gun control issue is getting out of hand.

I can't tell if this is trolling or not.

It's not. It's a reaction to what people say. Trump is obviously crazy, but when you have people talking about changing gun rules and legislation, what do you expect. You don't expect tensions to rise? You have a professor writing on the Rolling Stone magazine about repealing the Second Amendment and you don't expect some type of disagreement? The Second Amendment should not be repealed. This is not Europe, this is not Canada. We have to protect ourselves and if you want to be a disarmed person with no security, be my guest, but you have to have protection.

President Obama wasted the beginning of his second term on gun control and failed. If he had spent time talking about background checks instead of demonizing gun owners, this issue of gun control would not be so heated up. The NRA is probably too powerful to defeat in this sense. Leave the Second Amendment alone. And no, I'm not a fan of Trump. Yes, he's tough, he's macho, has the swag, but he needs to tone it down, but Democrats need to leave the Second Amendment alone.

If those Democrats would just stop proposing policies we don't like, we wouldn't have to threaten to murder them!

I'm not saying that, I'm just saying that Democrats need to back off the Second Amendment. Leave it alone.

This is a discussion about inciting murder upon a presidential candidate. Not about 2nd amendment policy. This is a thread about how a candidate nominated by a major party and with a large and angry following suggested to his followers that they murder a candidate for president of the United States.

He should have said it. Period.
