Whether living in Thailand or America, every sane person knows there are certain things you do not say.

True in a sense in the U.S. prior to 9/11 they left security up to the airline which majority were contracted out to firms that paid minimum wage and had minimum standards.

 

Insecure!  What person what country wouldn't be if 9/11 had happened to them. Look at England prior had cameras everywhere due to their own domestic terroristic behavior.

 

With so many holes in the airline system there were really no so called expects as Airline business slowed layoffs came many of the country TSA came from former airline management or front line airline agents who were familiar with the airport laid outs.

 

Thousand of deaths, senseless war to try to prevent another attack there are no real answer so people come up with rules sometime senseless on the surface to make sure if there is even a 1% chance it can happen that crazy rule is there.

Then you have people in power who shouldn't to get revenge use a needed list like the no fly to make like hard on their opponents like they did with Tusi Gabbard,!

 

Preventing another attacked a whole new expensive department was created HomeLand Security which has costed tax payers billions if not trillions. If Musk looked into that department will find massive abuse and waste in spending too. Government everywhere in general can't run anything!

 

Insecure makes people do things they normally wouldn't.

So this guy gets unsolicited emails from a Republican senator's office (probably espousing foul right-wing ideology about there only being two genders, or taking pornography out of schools, or seeking a donation), and this nut job decides that offing the entire Senate is the solution.

 

I wonder what his forum handle is? 

 

 

Only 2 genders haha

You did say wars without clarifying. Don't act like the Iraq war is something totally different.

America has a democratic system? I think their justice department just perjured itself. 

They didn't refer to it as a "Just and Un-Corrupted" Democratic System.

Now If The DOJ were to Make Such An Absurd Claim, That Would Be Perjury "Beyond The Pale".

Yep, me too.

Heck, I get all kinds of solicitations from the US. I try to unsubscribe and delete them as soon as I see one. Lot's of things I don't like, but I know they're just going to keep coming.

And you aren't aware of how democracy is alive in the US?  Didn't Trump just get (re)elected and sworn-in as President "47?  

 

It's alive, but it ain't lookin' so good.

Perhaps you should review the dissolution of democratic rights rights in the EU.  

Simply expressing disagreement with the govt can now earn jailtime and national censorship.  Or you don't think what's happening in the UK, Germany, and France counts?

“The calls are part of a growing and disturbing trend against political figures in recent months, with some pointing the blame at extreme-left groups protesting President Donald Trump’s 2024 election”.
 

As much as I hate what the dem party represents, this ain’t what democracy suppose to look  like ! 

There’s a lot of people who are deserving of mental illness  care , acting out  like extreme  leftist ,Mao Communists or Hitlers regime of socialist  , like this guy did, was beyond the scope of  bad taste rhetoric.

 

“In an interview with the FBI, his father, Richard Welton, said his son was a "socialist" and was angry that he had received 600 political emails, according to court documents”.

How do you take pornography out of schools?

A great start is taking drag queens out of children’s classrooms.  Secondary effects are less potential for grooming.

Actually Donald Trump sent messages to Chinese "investors" to tranfer their enterprises to E.U States (Hungary -Romania - Bulgary in order your tarifs to reduse at 20%.

USA is already a bubble almost ready to burst!

Just goes to show: don't make threats

I get death threats all the time. Usually, they come from Trump supporters who have never travelled outside the USA. They want to kill me simply because I don't support Trump. It's always the Trumpers who want to kill people.

Surprise.

Hopefully, this guy will be acquitted and the US Gubmint will be forced to pay for his plane fare back to Thailand. A threat is not an action.  However, I will admit that he has issues.
