You guys are just supporting a total asshole / piece of shit driver.
I'm not saying these guys weren't being assholes. But to say that they were "armed terrorists" ramming the bus and staffers is complete bs.
It's just more hyperbole and media lies that unfortunately, have become what to expect.

Y'all Quaeda is far beyond just being assholes there. Trump supporting them is no surprise but it's another sign of how violent things will get after the election regardless of the result.

You can open carry in Texas if you have a permit to do so. Getting licensed is kind of a joke but you can walk around with a rifle on your back or a gun on your hip.

What you CAN'T do is wave the gun in the air yelling God is Great or Trump 2020. Thats called "brandishing" and is considered a threat.

Arguing with someone in the parking lot of Whataburger? Don't pull up your shirt and show the gun tucked into your belt. Brandishing.
Someone walking up your driveway to put a flyer for a new pizza place on your door and you walk out holding a shotgun? Brandishing.

My point is, how did they know that the drivers were armed? Were they presenting the guns? Were they waving them out of the window, yelling "God is Great"?



Also, it looks like its happening here today.

I didn’t say they were terrorists or ramming the bus, I also didn’t personally see any media saying the bus was rammed.

For what it’s worth though, you might want to check the dictionary definition of what a terrorist is:

Ter·ror·ist
/ˈterərəst/
Learn to pronounce
noun
a person who uses unlawful violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.

So yah they actually are, as is anyone who does the same. It’s only hyperbole in your mind of what a terrorist is supposed to be / look like.

I guess if we're going by the textbook definition, Maxine Waters is promoting terrorist acts here then
I'm sure i could find hundreds of other examples of "terrorism".

not defending the vehicle contact but that could easily be any other country where politics is heated

reading the responses here you’d think the Trump hooligans flipped the bus over with ar-15s drawn

I agree.
But i don't agree with calling every act of political intimidation/violence an act of terrorism.
Kinda takes the punch out of groups that bomb, burn, behead, stab, shoot/beat to death people who oppose them politically or otherwise.

it's oil gas country..biden is not going to receive the same fanfare in pockets of TX

trump train out in full force with one vehicle becoming very hostile is not that suprising

if the cons encouraged homegrown rallies youd bet we'd see the similar trucks parading around alberta with HEARTOILGAS bumper stickers rolling on hybrid hyundais

This video and song are pretty epic too.. I’ve rolled into a music festival in the USA once with some American friends in a lava orange coloured Scion xB with this song blaring out the windows... not sure if proud or not.

I guess whoever wrote that headline agrees with the clowns who say "terrorist" can only apply to dark skinned people?

Call them what they are! Fucking terrorists! There are different kind of terrorists, from jihadists, to Trumptard "militia groups"

They write that the groups train for urban and rural combat, use propaganda and act as "security operations" for online and in-person events.
Kinda like that guy who shot and killed that Trump supporter in Denver a couple weeks ago.

Trump is already blowing dog whistles for the terrorists, saying that he'll declare himself the winner if he's ahead by tomorrow. Actually with all the mail in ballots, a lot of places won't even be able to declare with finality by tomorrow. Here's a post that describes when results come out of each state. For example, Alaska doesn't even begin counting absentee ballots until Nov 10. Illinois accepts mail-in ballots until Nov 17

He's setting things up for a disaster

Bernie noted it as well

If he gets enough votes in a given state to the point that it wouldn't be possible for him to lose that state, there's no point in counting every last vote.
Republicans overwhelmingly vote at the polls. There'll be no need to wait for mailed ballots. If enough turn out they should be able to call it.
