That made me angry as well as his words. Not wearing the mask effectively was just another indication of his narcissism and having no concern for others.
I kept thinking how much I'd like to introduce his face to something he wouldn't like. Repeatedly. A perfect example of "the only 'good Republicans' are pushing up daisies." He used to be Chief of Staff to the shitbird Cruz.
"Peace does not appear so distant as it did. I hope it will come soon, and come to stay; and so come as to be worth the keeping in all future time. It will then have been proved that, among free men, there can be no successful appeal from the ballot to the bullet; and that they who take such appeal are sure to lose their case, and pay the cost. And then, there will be some black men who can remember that, with silent tongue, and clenched teeth, and steady eye, and well-poised bayonnet, they have helped mankind on to this great consummation; while, I fear, there will be some white ones, unable to forget that, with malignant heart, and deceitful speech, they strove to hinder it. -Abraham Lincoln, 1863 letter to James C. Conkling
Understood. But... an eye for an eye doesn't end well for anyone, regardless who throws first. If the battle can't be won on the strength of ideas then the battle can't be won.
Umm, you did see video of January 6, yes? Do you think there is any "rational" response that those scum will respond to, that will cause them to see the error of their ways? These "people" are rabid animals and can only be dealt with as such.
BUT, "peace officers" should be enabled to "escort" an elected official to jail for recommending murderous acts. The elected official can chose to go quietly or violently, but whichever, OUT. And out of office.
Yes! The way he wore his mask was an in your face smack down to President Biden. They need to start enforcing the rules regarding mask wearing in Congress. It isnтАЩt ok to simply hang one on your ears and not cover your nose. ЁЯШб
Not to mention how he wore his mask.

I do so hope that we do not devolve into a mindset that champions violence in response to serious violent tendencies of others.
The pseudo-conservatives like Chip Roy define themselves as our enemy and have declared war on society. We ignore their threat at our peril.
Then don't ignore it. Act!!! Actively support the passage of the For the People Act...

This letter from Lincoln deserves to be better known.

Calming, compassionate, logical. Lincoln was an Amazing author. How did he learn to wordsmith like that?
He read a lot-self taught. The germ of his writing skills was innate, IMHO.

True.
There is no need for violence. Nonviolence is a very effective strength. Recommend reading Nonviolent Communications by Marshall Rosenberg.
Nonviolence is stronger, strongest.
Andrea 100%. No violent fantasies, please.
No violence needed if we had basic rules governing elected officials' words and behaviors. Calling for murder should mean instant ousting from office.
No only in my dreams
Channel the distress into peaceful action. No fanning flames.

Yes. No, sadly there is not. Agree, but Cathy Mc is right. Channel it, and help others do the same. Speak out/Vote them out.
I just had a fleeting fantasy of the pillow guy in shitbirdтАЩs bedroom positioning the pillow over shitbirdтАЩs face
How about this, TC?https://www.cdc.gov/tobacco/basic_information/secondhand_smoke/index.htm
Is anyone surprised by that?
Same. 100%.

Yes I noticed thatтАФoverall appearance base and crude.
