Just a random discussion. I’ve made no assertion either way. Just curious to see where the topic goes.

Does the Left Take Any Responsibility for the Assassination Attempts on Trump?
- Thread starter Watchmen
- Start date
On the basis of what evidence do you claim the people who shot at Trump were Democrats?
Or are you just making stuff up?
I made no such claim.
Which group, then, did you intend to denote when you said "the Left" in your thread heading?
And what is your evidence that "the Left" should take the blame for the shooting attempts?

Then cut out the middle man. If no leftist attacked trump, how can the left be at fault?

Damn, that really is that unnatural brain tortured by it's own lack of ability to navigate life.

Your local loco.
People blame Trump for having instigating rhetoric.
People point at Trump and call him the most dangerous man alive… yea I can see the reasoning that that can be seen as instigating an attempt on Mr. Trump’s life. Unless the “left” wants to stop blaming Trump for his supporter’s actions…
Devil’s advocate here.
You're not saying names, which suggests you don't want to risk defaming them for a false accusation. Oh the irony.

To ask "Does X take any responsibility for Y" is to necessarily imply that X has responsibility for Y, and you're asking if they accept that they do.
What you should have asked were you genuinely making no assertion was "Is the Left Responsible for the assassination attempts on Trump?"
The answer is obviously no.
A defense against defamation claims is that the defamatory statement was true.
Just saying.
People who kill others, or attempt such - is mostly down to them and whatever distorted thinking led to this.
Unlike private individuals, who should take full responsibility for what they do - taking into account any issues as to mental health and such - Trump was, and still is to many a leader. So what he says or does tends to affect others directly - those who seemingly bow down to him, worship him, lick his coat-tails (or worse), or just believe the garbage that flows so effortlessly from his big mouth. Hence why he should be held responsible for the Jan 6th event just as much, or more so, than those who took part.

Who?
It’s nothing more than a prompt. I made no claim.
Sounds like victim blaming.

Well he has tried E. Jean Caroll and CNN, both have been dismissed without even going to trial, he has one against the Pulitzer Prize board that has yet to be dismissed though chances of success are considered slim.
