When crazy folks,
- Openly dramatize stabbing President Trump and call it a theatrical play
- Display a bloody severed head of Trump
- Make a music video showing a supposed Trump being shot (e.g Snoop dog)
e.t.c While being shielded by the Media

Then this is what you'd get - more insanity as many become emboldened to carry out atrocities and unleash terror on perceived political foes

Na so..I don't pity Trump at all..He brought this upon himself by sacking Comey in the first place..If you are not guilty you don't do that..But when guilt stares you in the face,that is what you do..

Am just imagining Obama doing that to Comey because he was investigating Hilary..I wonder what these Republicans would have said..

Sounds like a false flag operation to me.

Maybe if you guys were not so pro gun, the guy would not have had access to a firearm in the first place.

This is the world of your creation. In most other parts of the world, the man would be a harmless heckler. In America, he has access to a gun and so he is much more dangerous.

In the us where the GOP is voting to leave guns in the hands of the mentally unfit, why are you feigning surprise?

Is this long sermon because gun violence is finally and inevitably coming closer to home?

Well dear Conservatives, I hope you can see the impact of what's to come due to Trump stupidly overturning Obama's gun regulation that had to do with mental health. You guys love guns so much you don't mind selling it to anyone right?? Enjoy..
Conservatives blaming "anti trump rhetoric" for this are being crazy...when two Indians were shot in Kansas by a guy spewing anti islam insults, why didn't anyone blame Trump?? How about the countless times we've heard stories of kids of color getting bullied with Trump remarks in school?? This is an unfortunate event and democrats have come out and condemned it. Let's stop pointing fingers.

Special counsel is investigating President Trump for obstruction of justice, new report says

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2017/06/14/special-counsel-is-investigating-president-trump-for-obstruction-justice-new-report-says.html

Special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russia’s interference in the 2016 election has expanded to include an examination of whether President Donald Trump attempted to obstruct justice, according to a new report from The Washington Post.

Daniel Coats, the current director of national intelligence, Adm. Mike Rogers, the head of the National Security Agency and Richard Ledgett, Rogers’ departed deputy, all agreed to participate in interviews with Mueller’s investigators as early as this week, five anonymous sources briefed on the requests told the Post.

It wasn’t immediately clear if others have been questioned by the FBI.

Investigators have also been looking for proof of possible financial crimes committed by Trump associates, officials told The Post.

COMEY FIRING TO BE INVESTIGATED BY SENATE PANEL, NEW REPORT SAYS

“The FBI leak of information regarding the President is outrageous, inexcusable and illegal,” Mark Corallo, a spokesman for Trump’s personal lawyer, Marc Kasowitz, told The Post.

The Special Counsel’s office declined to comment.

The president previously said he had received private assurances from fired FBI Director James Comey that he was not personally under investigation as part of the probe. Comey confirmed that he provided those assurances in testimony he gave to the Senate Intelligence Committee on June 8.

WASHINGTON -- While President Trump berates Qatar for sponsoring terrorism at the highest levels, he is simultaneously authorizing the country to purchase over $21 billion of U.S. weapons.

One part of the deal was inked on Wednesday in Washington, D.C., when Qatar's Defense Minister met with U.S. Defense Secretary James Mattis.

"We are pleased to announce today the signing of the letter of offer and acceptance for the purchase of the F-15QA fighter jets, with an initial cost of $12 billion dollars," read the Qatari Defense Minister's statement on Wednesday afternoon. "We believe that this agreement will propel Qatar's ability to provide for its own security while also reducing the burden placed upon the United States military in conducting operations against violent extremism."

The Qatari ambassador to the U.S. tweeted a photo of the signing.

The State Department describes this sale as fermenting U.S. efforts to "strengthen the security and defense architecture of the region." They point out that it does not directly conflict with the current regional dispute as it will take years to complete and fill the sale in full.

"We are confident that Qatar can address its remaining issues within this timeframe, prior to delivery," explains a State Department official.

Qataris had scheduled Wednesday's trip to formalize portions of this arms deal with the U.S. government about two months ago, according to Qatari and State Department officials. They want these weapons. So, despite growing tensions and Mr. Trump's repeated hardline stance against their support of Iran and regional terrorist groups, the Qataris came because they want the weapons.

"We are working on the process related to the signing," said one Qatari official on Wednesday morning. "It is normal. We are in the stage where we want to finalize this deal."

Qataris say the deal demonstrates the "long standing commitment" Qatar has to working with the U.S.

The full arms sale, of over $20 billion, was notified in November 2016. This means it had already been authorized by congress and the executive branch, when President Obama was in office, before the Trump administration came into office. Eventually, Qatar is set to receive 36 American-made F15s.


In the face of the escalating tensions Qataris came to D.C. with a large entourage -- expecting to break ground on the escalating regional standoff. But there is no sign of progress. The State Department has yet to extend an official request for a joint meeting between representatives that are in the nation's capitol from Qatar, the UAE and Saudi Arabia. Qatar says have still not received the list of demands that the countries have for them. The U.S. has not played a role in passing along request, either.

On Tuesday morning, Secretary of State Rex Tillerson met with Saudi Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubier. He stood silently as Jubier declared to reporters that there "is no blockage of Qatar." Tillerson will have a working dinner with UAE Foreign Minister Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan on Wednesday night.

There has been nothing on his public schedule with Qatari leaders. Though Qatar has sent a team, including individuals from Qatar Central Bank, to the State Department to discuss the matter at a technical level. Last week, Tillerson called for an easing of the Qatari ban - but hours later, Mr. Trump did not echo those sentiments.

"The nation of Qatar has unfortunately been a funder of terrorism, and at a very high level," Mr. Trump said on Friday at the White House. He added "the time has come to call on Qatar to end its fundin[/b]g."

There are more than 10,000 U.S. service members at the U.S. central command base in Qatar. The U.S. commander there has said there are "no plans to change our posture in Qatar" amid a Gulf diplomatic crisis. Qatar is quick to remind the U.S. of this working relationship.

[b]"When no one wanted to host your troops after 9/11, we did. We protected them. Saudi Arabia asked you to leave
," said Meshal bin Jamad al Thani, the Qatari ambassador to the U.S. Qataris believe that the blockade of their country is politically motivated by the Saudis in an effort to flex their muscle in the region.

Yousef Al Otaiba, the United Arab Emirates Ambassador to the U.S., has suggested that the U.S. consider moving their base there. Qatar has received no indications of U.S. plans to do so, and they are not asking them to leave or change their operations in any way.

"None of our people attacked the U.S.," said al Thani, a nod to the Saudis who were involved in the Sept 11th terrorist attacks.

Gun is a part of American culture and guns cant be taken away. Many Americans even Bernie Sanders are gun owners.

That is not condemning the act, that is pushing forward your own gun agenda. That is a different debate altogether. We are talking about condemning and renouncing violence against one another simply because we disagree on issues, we are talking about promoting speech and not forcefully shutting down folks who have counter ideas.

WHy should you take their guns? Making guns illegal only ensures that the bad guys have a monopoly of guns. The man living in rural Idaho that the nearest Sherriff is 3hrs away how do you want him to protect himself

Nigeria where guns are not allowed dont thieves and robbers still get guns? Or you want the situation where Robbers will hae the guts to write a letter to your community that they are coming on a date, they will keep their appointment, Rob uninterrupted and unchallenged for 5hrs

Like I said this is America and the people have the right to their guns as provisioned by the constitution

A big percentage of Americans live in the rural area where law enforcement is thin and they need to protect themselves
