I am posting about what I've seen today from not random people, people I know, who have said stuff like this, after this alleged bomber was arrested, and seeing the stickers on his van.

They are the first to say: DON'T JUDGE A WHOLE (group, religion, etc)!

Then they do it. Don't worry, the uber-gun-nuts do it, too.

So? You expected different? You should hear what I hear daily about Hillary Clinton.

I do hear about it. You post about it. :p

And if it's just against her, fine. If it's "Typical Democrat/lefty" then that is wrong.

It's all typical Democrat/Lefty. That's what people do. Was this guy a typical Trumper? Some ways yes, some ways no.

This part I agree with. A typical Trumper shoots his mouth off, but that's about it. S/he doesn't take any real action. The antifa (note: the real antifa, not just lefties) shoot their mouths off, but generally take no real action.

Isn't a gigantic portion of our prisons filled with minor drug infractions and the like? That's the narrative I've been hearing. ;)

I've already seen a few liberal friends that I know personally say, "Typical Trumper."

However, if a Muslim bombing happens, and someone says, "Typical Muslim," they get ridiculed.

I am sincerely impressed you said "5%," truth. I expected a higher number from you. :)

Because when Molly Tibbetts got killed by an illegal immigrant, Trumpers didn't use it to rail against all illegal immigrants. They'd never do that.

Again, that is wrong. However, today I've seen "typical Trumper" (judging a whole group by the actions of one person), and that seems to be acceptable, and it's not.

Judging people on one's opinions and philosophy is different than judging someone on their race or immigration status. I have no problem calling all trump supporters asshats, because you pretty much have to be one to support him.

I disagree. From the Trumpers' view: illegal immigrant = criminal (besides the obvious entering the country illegally, which is obviously a crime; talking about more serious crimes), but legal immigrants? A-OK! They think that all illegal immigrants are basically terrorists/cartel/murderers. Wrong.

Assuming all Trumpers are bombers/murderers/lynchers, also wrong. They may be arsehats, but that doesn't make them criminals.

This guy was an alleged criminal years before this happened (I know he had brushes before, including a previous bomb threat) but somehow got off on technicalities. This guy is a nutjob, and on top of that, sloppy with his plans. As much as we hate all the pure Trumpers, I have a hard time believing that the average Trumper would send bombs out like this guy did. In other words, they may shout all the crap they want, but they'll do nothing more than that.

You know how I know you’ve never seen a trump rally before?

And we've had one bomber.

I have had opportunities to listen to Barreiro when Kepler (not the poster, the pol guy on there) who's been to rallies, and he has said basically the same thing: they yell and shout and get in your face, but for actions like this? Doubtful. Rarity.

You know that something like 2/3 of the acts of terror since trump took office have been perpetrated by right wing extremists, right?

How many have been accused of being directly influenced by Trump's rhetoric (as it seems to be the case with this guy, if he is indeed the bomber)?

To say that any Trumper is willing to commit acts like this is plain ignorance. Sometimes, it's NOT about Trump.

So Trump is to blame for the hundreds of lynchings before he took office? The people who commit these acts have always been around, will most likely be around, and are around now. Blame them. Not some party, not some outside influence. Blame them, and them alone. This was my whole point in the beginning. When a Muslim bomber commits a suicide bombing, I blame the person who committed the act. Not the religion.

I blame Tim McVeigh, not the NRA or anti-government groups.

Trump bears some responsibility for this particular guy. This was entirely predictable.

It's not. Trumpers may be complete arsehats (and they are, IMO), but I don't see bombs being sent out every day, nor lynchings every day, nor levels of this violence every day. This guy is the rare occurrence where he put actions to his words.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2017_Congressional_baseball_shooting I guess, using reasoning from some on here, that all leftists are equally as violent, or at least capable of it.

Ah yes. I remember Pelosi’s speech where she said “I wish someone would shoot some of these reps!”

Once again, I am against judging a group due to one individual's act of violence.
