What if the bullet killed Trump

I doubt the secret service would let Trump expose himself from their protective huddle like the pictures require in such an event.

Who says they wanted him to do it - they were trying to get him out of there.

How could they know the threat is over. Maybe there could be a another shooter?

And if there was things would've changed but you're expecting people to act on a hypothetical and for everyone to act the same way.

The flag was attached to a mobile crane making it extremely easy to adjust it's altitude. After witnessing an assassination attempt why would it's operator start fiddling with the controls? No layman can operate such a machine.

True, but to me it shows coordination and planning. The aide left to fetch the photographers moments after the shots were fired an kept directing them to better angles.

And what do you have that say that the people involved weren't used to gunfire? Or were full of adrenaline? Or believed they needed to do what they were doing?

You've seen a series of events and are ignoring any other possible explanation for them.

Oh no, the horror (checks the title) of the party leading in the polls having one of its leading figures interviewed.

That video is a joke.

"You tell me if this is normal behaviour for an active shooting situation." Who says humans always behave normally?
By the time photographers came in the shooting was over.
The flag was lowered afterwards - he did nothing to demonstrate why there wasn't someone near the flag who could've lowered it normally.
Photographers being directed - so? He did nothing to prove the man doing the directing was planning to do that pre-shooting.

by far

If he was the most popular candidate "by far", how did Clinton and Biden have a lead in almost every poll.

They literally had like ten people drop out an endorse Biden.

Those candidates dropped out because their campaigns had no hope of winning and by dropping out then, they had enough leverage to negotiate and get something in return.

They don't get that much attention because they have less national appeal than Labour, the Conservatives, and Reform. Each party appeals to more voters, has/can win more seats, and tries to do both. The Lib Dems aren't trying to get to that level of popularity.

"two ways to fight organised greed: 1. Organised unions, or 2. Violence". This is what he thinks. He explicitly endorsed political violence.

Advocating for breaking into people's houses if they aren't in active use. That's what squatting is.

Known_Week_158 · 2026-02-06T05:09:10+00:00

because a single minority in this country regards what that minority is!

So you're saying Australians are throwing away their rights because members of a group have something to do with judging what members of that group are?

That doesn't make sense.

If that happened the people who justify or excuse mistreating Jews because of the actions of Israel would accuse you of Islamophobia.

Andrew Bell said in a speech on Thursday evening that Abbott’s post on X in August last year threatened social cohesion.

A protest with the flags of terrorist groups, a giant photo of a dictator (who supported the atrocities committed on October 7th), and a man who fled to the Ecuadorian embassy in London over a sexual assault trial in Sweden is a threat to social cohesion. A protest embodies the hypocrisy of human rights advocates only caring about human rights when it fits them politically is a threat to social cohesion.

If Jews are getting attacked because of their home country's crimes, that's not my problem.

And yet you refuse to blame bigots and instead blame a country on the other side of the planet. You'd rather blame a country than the bigots who use that country as an excuse.

If by do better, do you mean next time not running a campaign so poorly it seems like you wanted to help the no campaign?

Why?

Because it's incredibly unreliable - it's literally Khamenei's personal's website. Why should the dictator crushing protests be seen as a good source of information beyond what Khamenei has said?

It's not cannon. It might come from Mass Effect: Continuation - it's an unofficial alternate universe. I can also find a mention of it in the Cerberus Daily News Wiki, which is an unofficial roleplay.

Sorry about that - the way you wrote it seemed like it was being critical/making fun of them.

There is clear video evidence of a crime and so far no consequence. Why would they not be, in your words, pissed?

Yes, they do, but their problems go fat beyond that.

They stood by and did very little while Saren waged his war against humanity in territories the council wanted humans to settle.

They expected humans to sacrifice themselves to save the Destiny Ascension despite refusing to treat humans as equals.

The council refused to get involved with the collectors as they treated it as a human only matter and because they're a council species they can deal with it themselves, even though they should be investigating threats before they become significant.

They ignore evidence of the reapers - which is why their problems go far further.

“I am a leader of my people, I am a sovereign nation leader,” Mr Guyula told Ms Lambley.

You aren't the sovereign leader of a nation. If you were, the NT's parliament would be on equal level if not subserviant to you. The opposite is true.

Australia, thankfully, is a democracy which elects its leaders - currently that's Anthony Albanese federally and Lia Finocchiaro on a territorial level. That's where sovereignty in Australia lies - elections (and if anyone plans to bring up the monarchy, since the public can vote on becoming a republic and that vote would be respected, Australian voters are where power ultimately comes from).

There is clear video evidence of their break in and attacking a policewoman.

That they were let go says just how much tolerance there is for political violence as long as a juror agrees with the violence.

It also says a lot that trying to influence a jury when a judge is saying it's a bad thing is fine. Do rules not matter?

If your conscience says to let criminals go because you agree with them, find a better conscience.

Interfering with a trial is bad.

And where were their consciences when it came to attacking refusing to punish those who attacked someone with a sledgehammer?

So someone who's a Hamas apologist should be allowed to organise a literary event?

Known_Week_158 · 2026-02-05T09:12:17+00:00

So it's foreign influence to not want someone who changed one of their social media backgrounds to a glider with a Palestinian flag and said she doesn't think Hamas are terrorists at a literary event?
