    did anyone go after any politicians?
    Or did PJ have over 600 concerts over 4 years where Eddie said that and 15,000+ fans followed them around? And Eddie stepped in front of a camera, mic or got on Twitter and spewed baseless lies about those politicians at every turn? Sure they and he did, sure. Same-same.
    Pointing out that sometimes people don't take you seriously or literally.  That was obviously my point that was missed...  Tsk tsk.

    abuse of what power?  may be pres elect but until jan 20 at noon he is still a private citizen.
    I assume that she is referring to when he was VP and the Burisma/China conspiracies. You can guarantee if introduced, over 2/3 of republicans in the house would support it. This is where America is right now. The right has no interest in changing the course they have set. There was no rebuke of Trump at the polls. If there had been, they would have followed suit, but he gained voters so those without a soul are entrenched because their local voters are on board. Even if some don't believe it and want to change, they won't because they don't know how to dispute the BS and keep their supporters. Play the game to stay in power.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    very poor comparison. Given both the actual intelligence and the emotional intelligence of a PJ crowd vs trumps base.

    further had any fans actual took ed up on the suggestion, he would have been just as culpable as fuckstick is here.

    It was a poor comparison and a knock on how this band actually conducts itself. Also, I don't know of the comment you mentioned and question the wording and context. Not to knock on you, but sometimes we aren't very good at recalling things and it is almost impposible for anyone to refute what you said because it's a vague reference. Eddie may make some borderline comments at times, but there is nothing that could ever compare to what has happened the last several months and years.

    Should Charles Manson have gone to jail? He didn't kill anyone. 

    Sure, he incited his followers to go commit murder, but is it his fault people took him literally?

    Because Eddie said it once at concert you attended isn’t quite the same as what Tricky Team Trump TREASON Tax Cheat has been doing. Were you not drawing some comparison about words and their meaning? Tsk tsk indeed.

    Like I worry whether people take me seriously or literally. Or did you mean “you” in the general sense? Tsk tsk tsk, c’est le ce.

    I love how I cite something just to make a point yet no one wants to agree with it.

    This is why we have a divide in the country.  People dismiss things right off the bat if they don't agree with it.

    My Uncle interviewed Manson and I will say this, he had the ability to have people do whatever he said.  He had quite a few Manson disciples show up at his doorstep or in his house for that matter.  Manson is a whole other ball of wax.

    Manson actually controlled people.

    i think the main difference why people are dismissing it is because of the sheer scale that trump did it on compared to ed saying it to one crowd one time. trump has been inciting crowds against minorities, "radical leftist democrats", the media, etc, for literally years. he holds rallies with tens of thousands and telling people he'd love to knock the hell out of people, shouts conspiracy theories and inciting violence on twitter, opining about the good ol days where the cops could assault suspects, wanting to lock up his political opponents, etc. 

    I understand where you're coming from, but to be fair, that comparison just can't be made.

    This, like so many things, is more nuanced than the internet usually accommodates.

    Common sense tells me that Trump was, at best, irresponsible in his riling up an angry mob full of people that are cultishly devoted to him. For that I blame him. He'd have to be stupid (oh, oh) to not realize the possible danger in lighting the fuse he was lighting. Legally, can he be blamed? I don't know. Just like it's my job to not bring a pitchfork when I'm trying to get my elected representative to start behaving properly, it was each member of the mob's job to be peaceful and not break in.

    I think biggest difference between your Eddie example and this is the immediacy of it. They were a few blocks from the very activity that was going to finalize Trump's loss and the concert was in no such proximity during an un-related even.  Common sense (again, I can't articulate legal differences) tells me 1) that the fans aren't going to exit the building and do anything and 2) that it was metaphorical.  On the other hand, Trump actually sent people in the direction of the capital (and implied he'd go with them, but, you know bone spurs). And the immediate danger of the situation was far more prevalent in this case.

    Legally, I don't know how culpable he his on what we know* but I do think it was irresponsible and a clear indication that he should not be president for the next four hours, much less the next four years.

    *I think it's very possible it was more than off the cuff and that the mob did what he wanted him to do and that this was facilitated by a discussion amongst the white nationalists that were later (earlier) seen dancing to 1980s music.  I even think it's possible the GOP or Team Trump sent some of the zip tie guys in, using the idiot mob as camouflage. But at this point, that's not proven. If that ever comes out, we have a whole new conversation.

    It was a bullshit comparison. Sorry you disagree with that. Hmmmmm, let me give this some serious thought. Eddie says something once about politicians at a show in 2000 and it automatically is equivalent to what Tricky Team Trump TREASON Tax Cheat has been doing for the past 4 to 5 years, at his rallies, on social media and with an echo chamber of right wing media to amplify and legitimate a bullshit message. Sure, same-same. And when you get called out on it, you ridicule those who disagree with your preposterous comparison. Talk about a divide? Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk

    Chris, when one applies facts and rules of logic to your argument and finds it faulty, that's not a dismissal right off the bat. It's a disqualification based on a priori knowledge, not reactionary opinion.

    We have a divide in this country because idiots refuse to apply facts and rules of logic to their arguments; they believe and react and disregard the wealth of collected knowledge at their fingertips for misinformation/opinions that simply reinforce their beliefs and reactions.

    That’s so interesting!  Only a few people have been able to interview him, so I am very curious who your uncle is (I don’t expect you to tell me, just fascinated).  I bet he has some interesting things to say about the experience.  Manson is definitely a “different” case.  The studying of him in my forensic psychology course was intriguing.

    Someone brought up Manson which was 50 years ago...

    The message was that things should not be taken literally or choose to take something out of context.  Trump never said to go hang someone or build a noose, but it happened and a person on here wants him responsible for that yet someone else pointed out the intelligence of the crowd.  Trying to blame him for those actions I do not agree with.  It was a stretch which was my point but took a tangent.

    Anything that somewhat reflects like defending Trump never goes well on here.  It is a country divided and I really wanted to try and grasp that concept further because it really is mind boggling as I don't think Trump is fit for office but 75million thought he is.

    If you are really interested in that part of the story I will share it here.  It's public knowledge, meaning it's out there and my uncle was kind of a whackadoo.

    I'll switch gears and put the Manson story in it's own thread.  Comment there.  Give me a few minutes.

    I am interested in that story. I remember Manson and the trial from the news as a kid and then I read Helter Skelter. Then of course Squeaky Fromme tries to shoot Ford and they keep coming up for parole. Crazy.
