    He’s afraid it won’t show the two gay craftsmen caressing their love hammer together, as 4chan promised…

    Says the same exact guy who tried to pedal the gay lover BS to in the original thread. You shouldn’t watch the video, either … keep your fantasy alive!

    This is a pretty in depth account. Says the video played in court was 15 seconds long, and includes Pelosi opening the door, Depapa approaching Pelosi, Cops tell him to drop the hammer, he says "nope", Pelosi tries to grab the hammer, Depapa starts to beat Pelosi with it, then police tackle him. Again, the whole thing lasted 15 seconds.

    As for Depapa, here are his own words from a recorded statement (and I hope the mods will give me 4 Q&A's here, as my 4 paragraphs, and court testimony is public information):

    Hurley: Do you know why you are in custody?
    David: Oh absolutely. I’m not trying to get away with it. I know exactly what I did. The lies are insane. People in Washington. It originates with Hillary. Honestly, day in and day out, the person on TV lying every day was (Nancy) Pelosi. It’s [deleted word]-ing insane the crime spree the Democrats have been on, persecuting the rival campaign.

    Hurley: Do you mean the Trump campaign?
    DePape: Yes Trump. (The Democrats) go from one crime to another crime. It’s a whole [deleted word] four years. It’s unacceptable.

    Hurley: What was your intention going there (Pelosi’s house)?
    DePape: Well, I was basically going to hold her hostage and talk to her. If she told the truth, I’d let her go. If she told a lie, I’d break her kneecaps.

    Hurley: How did you get in?
    DePape: It was not easy. There are cameras everywhere. A thousand cameras. I broke through (the glass door with a hammer) and I tried to turn the handle, and of course it’s locked. I body slammed through it. I didn’t feel any pain. I was surprised. All that noise, he did not hear it. He was asleep. I told him I’m looking for Nancy Pelosi. He was like, how can we resolve this? I was like, I don’t know. That’s when he started to do things.

    His own words completely blow up all the gay grinder date gone wrong fantasy BS that @flgator2 and the others were trying to push in the original thread. Zero chance they admit they were wrong, though....

    This link is worth a read, very detailed information about the recorded 911 call and Depapa's recorded statements.

    I don't get why this incident has resulted in utterly repulsive jokes about the Pelosi family and hammers. I didn't laugh when Scalise was shot, regardless of how much I dislike the man. I happily pushed back on people wished death or violence on politicans on the other side of the aisle. It's basic decency.

    Political violence, from any person or political tribe, should be condemned. If we could be a better electorate, I think we'd have better representation. Alas, it'll likely never happen. Thank God for whiskey.

    Because a segment of our population is sick/cruel/evil and generally hates that America is a diverse nation built on concepts of secular government and freedom of religion. They are literally willing to burn it all down for theocratic ideology. The only saving grace is these malcontents mostly can’t agree on much of anything, other than their uniform desire to burn it all down.

    There is nothing really unique, all nations have an underbelly of angry populists ready for “revolution”, and these people have persisted here even after the the civil war, through civil rights era, etc. It should be surprising for the most advanced nation in human history to still have these issues, it’s surprising that our underbelly appears to be growing for the last 10-20 years during times of relative stability (at least up until the pandemic). But perhaps we’ve “advanced” to a stage where people literally just seek out outrage. I.e doomscrolling, Doom porn, etc. Social media is a helluva drug.

    I do not disagree with anything you posted. Unfortunately, the "burn it all down" contingents seem to have formed a consensus strong enough to make them a real threat to make calamity a real possibility. I've seen once rational people turn into frothing conspiracy theorists who joyfully absorb anything people like Tucker say as gospel. FWIW, I deleted my Twitter account and use Facebook as a mechanism for hobbies/friends simply because it's so otherwise toxic.

    You really going to try to deny it? LOL. This is the internet, what you say here lasts forever ... or at least until GC crops the pages....

    But here is a reminder of the fantasy bullshit YOU were posting in October, based on the far right wing disinformation sources that you cherish....

    Sorry, you can't hide from the fact you were falling for the disinformation back then, and probably still are, it must be embarrassing for you to be reminded ...

    As I said, social media is a helluva drug. In its own way, it’s now become an epidemic as bad as meth or opioids. I say this as someone who was a very early adopter and was basically in tuned with the earliest social media sites . I actually remember Facebook from before it was Facebook when it was just exclusive to college kids (I was a grad student at this time), remember other precursor sites like “HotOrNot” etc. It all seemed innocent back then, more like dating sites, and for awhile there was a “change the world” aspect when we saw how easy to reconnect with old friends/extended family. I pretty much got bored of Facebook around 10 years ago. But even then I didn’t have that it would turn 10’s of millions into digital crackheads on my bingo card. But alas, here we are.

    Totally. I recall FB was a college hookup site and MySpace was the sort of prototype for the nonsense we see today. Thanks, Tom from Myspace.

    I didn't even see where Greg Kelly said he was gay he asked if they were in their underwear, And if they were that's a legit question
