    it trying to argue but do you have a link that Jones helped organize, promote and fund Jan 6th?

    If so why wasn’t he charged with conspiracy? Sound like conspiracy to me..

    This has been my take the whole time.

    Everybody waiting with bated breath to learn motives, but in the end it's just one lunatic with a gun.

    If he likes Taylor Swift it doesn't make Swifties violent revolutionaries.

    It's just another day in America.

    Who gives a crap who this guy is or why he did it, let's just all call him stupid and try to avoid anymore madness.

    there are a ton of articles saying jones solicited donations, gave his own money, promoted the rally for weeks on his radio show, appeared in the crowd with a bullhorn… it doesn’t seem to be a question that he was involved.

    I don’t think Jones was charged, but he was definitely around a lot of people who were!

    Now this seems a bit more plausible of a connection given the shooters background..

    Democrats continue with the violence. A masked gunman was killed a block outside the RNC security zone, and two others arrested protesting where not allowed. Face the fact, democrats are the party of disunity, violence, and evil.

    Lying? That's Ly'n Biden and his supporters. Truth doesn't matter, just authoritarian power at all costs. That jig is up. Democrats are done. Biden floating shit like packing the SCOTUS and requiring moral clauses on the 3rd branch of the federal government only cements he really is Dictator Biden. Since he isn't running the government, his flunkies around him are the socialists and communists doing their worse while the can.

    When I see Biden, all I see is a fish out of water flopping around waiting to die.

    More lies ... your "masked gunman" was a homeless guy with a knife, no gun, no mask, and two miles from the event, in an apparent altercation with another guy ... not seeing anything there having to do with politics.

    Nice try, though. Like I said, you guys will lie about anything. It's pathetic.

    Cops shooting a homeless guy, definitely a Democratic plot, not a normal day in America. At this point I cant believe you arent just doing a bit.

    Homeless guy with a knife in the area he normally hangs around. He was known by local police, so probably the only reason he was even killed was the extra/outside Ohio police.

    I’d say that’s quite a difference when your claim is “democrats continue with violence”.

    Was he going to throw it from two miles away to kill Donald Trump?

    I'm sure the police saw him wearing a mask and carrying a knife headed towards the RNC and just decided I want to kill somebody tonight so it may as well be this innocent chap. (shaking head)

    One block away, a protester who wasn't supposed to be there committed battery against a republican representative in congress. They didn't shoot this innocent chap, but could have.

    Why you guys continue to lie about everything is a mystery to me… he was involved in a fight with another man, not doesn’t appear to be wearing a mask in the video I saw, and had nothing to do with the RNC… the cop was right to shot because he lunging at the other man with a knife …

    Now, do you want to get back on topic and tell us why Alex Jones gets a pass for telling his followers to ‘please kill Trump, it’s the best case scenario, it will be so good after that’?

    I mean, believe it or not, there are people out there who listen to Alex Jones, hang on his every word, and who actually think Trump isn’t a big enough asshole to implement their far right agenda.

    I already said this guy isn't MAGA.

    There are right and left wings nuts. I don't see anything worth having a conversation over, but feel free to carry on.
