    Well, that’s how things happen in France, Syria and a lot of other places historically. It’s already played out twice in the last year.

    And because of the complete complacency in the citizenry first with Citizens United, then the failure to hold him to criminal account for his many crimes and endless quid pro quo, and the stacking of the supreme court turning him into a king, the bullet is actually the only way to stop him. That or waiting till he collapses, which could be a while.

    There are no more elections or protests to get rid of him. The concentration camps are being built and filled. The only thing left is to get all your highly individualised asses who don’t even know the concept and power of unions and banding together and form a militia.

    The complacency is absolutely insane to see from abroad.

    PS: and learn from JFK: have multiple shooters not just one.

      thank you for telling Americans how they are being Americans wrong from the comfort of your own country.

      it swells my heart with pride knowing that a Frenchman is telling my countrymen how to be more American by assassinating their leaders. going as far as glorifying the assassination of one of our most beloved leaders as a blueprint.

      we will gladly risk life imprisonment at a darksite in a tiny windowless cell, where we will never see our families or loved ones again. All because YOU said we should do it.

      we will risk death so that you can go back to feeling slightly less inconvenienced in your country, France.

      can you please forgive us lowly peasants for ever questioning you?

      suck my dick

      it’s fucking hilarious that of all the Europeans to come this hard at Americans, it’s the fucking French. leave it to the Frenchman to tell someone else to die for a cause they don’t have a cause in. no fear of death, nor retribution, nor punishment.

      will you open your country to my family after the deed is done? I will most likely parish, and my family would be hunted down and killed like animals, if not by the government then by the fanatics. would you risk an open war with America and fight for the protection of my loved ones? Would you feed them, clothe them. Would you allow your countrymen to die for them? would YOU die for them?

      I didn’t think so.

      Ceux qui croient à des absurdités commettront des atrocités.

          They’re both kinda wrong. There are plenty of protests in the US, just not reported as much because the media works with the administration.

          Their response suggests that they think the French have never sacrificed their lives for anything, which is absolutely stupid.

            it was a tongue in cheek reference to how the French initially refused to get involved in the American revolutionary war until they directly benefited from it.

            and how they would allow their own people to starve while the aristocracy overindulged.

            I also thought it was particularly indignant for someone in another country to tell me, an American, what I should sacrifice and how I should rebel when they don’t know the first thing about what my country is going through. they don’t live here, they don’t know what every day is like. they don’t understand the risks.

            I think it’s a pretty funny that Europeans praise unity and solidarity and then attack Americans just because they’re Americans. I used to think that Europe was light years ahead of us, but now I’m thinking you’re just as fractured and broken as us.

            I wonder who will come to your aid when Russia starts expanding? surely they won’t expect the fascist loving all knowing piece of shit Americans to help.

              We (as in the rest of the world) definitely do have a better understanding of you than you do of us. That’s what happens when a country that thinks it’s always right meddles with everyone else’s business.

        As an American: you should shut the fuck up with the French stereotypes. Using those tropes and stereotypes as a serious insult or attack only serves to prove your own (stereotypically American) deep ignorance of French history and culture.

          I wasn’t using stereotypes. I was using historical references to how the French refused to aid America in the revolutionary war unless they directly gained from it.

          I was also alluding to how the French aristocracy used to starve the peasants and overindulge.
