Is there anyway the police can be brought in to break up the Trump fans? After all, it's clearly voter intimidation, and illegal.


Numbers have been posted on r/portland for anyone to call if they are being harassed or threatened by anyone for their ballot.

They’re not arresting those people for electioneering—at least?

Presumably, that applies to both sides of the political divide. 8)

I tend to think this is dumber than being a progressive. It's not even partisan politics anymore when people are being harrased & often killed for disagreements with neo-conservatives. If you are voting for Trump, you are voting for domestic terrorism.


Ummm. 8O

That "somebody" should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

On an autism website, you're referring to people as "ret*ds"?

Secondly, it's a rule violation to insult Trump supporters by calling them "ret*ds".

It's analogous to calling liberals the name of "liberal" (ret*d liberal).


Trump cultists should behave in a manner that wouldn't lead others to believe they are cognitively impaired.


/also stop throwing around these slurs as if they were exempt from the moral failures inherent in doing their thing.

Yeah, "ummm" is probably going to be the best retort you've got for this one. Are you saying that you prefer lynchings to damaged property?

No, I think Pepe is saying the democrats are a terrorist groups because they are setting things on fire. BLM movements are not Trumpers but they are also not a terrorist group either, they are a civil rights movement.
