    weird how he has been ranting non stop about “radical leftist” judges and their huge conspiracy, and they need to purge them… and then some supporter goes and attacks a judge.
    ….
    kinda exactly like stochastic terrorism and not too hard to prove in court

      What I don’t understand is, why would we need to wait for someone’s house to be set on fire to make it stick in court? The intent and actions of the stochastic terrorist are still the same.

      Our legal system is pretty stupid that way.

        in past cases i’ve only heard of it being pursued in civil courts after the fact… feels like there’s something different when talking about judges but he always qualifies his rhetoric…
        like “and there’s only one thing left to do, with this giant conspiracy using the law to manipulate the government! (pause) pursue legal action within the guidelines of the law, of course!”.
        it seems a lot like he’s implying legal action is pointless and it’s time to do illegal things….
        also looking at the director of the fbi and attorney general doesn’t give me hope they’ll pursue this one….

      It’s what they want to have happen. They just need it to be blameable on anyone other than violent psychopaths.

      Somehow they still think “influencing” the message means “controlling” the message.
