  1. I don’t remember this vitriol and hatred for Romney and McCain. But then, everybody left and right knew those two were foregone losers and Obama props who posed little threat to win. Trump is right where he wants to be, over target and getting flak.

  2. So all these macho Mexicans and muslims talk a big game about disemboweling and beheading Trump, but it’s a gawky, white brit nutjob who actually goes after Trump, instead of ganging up on Trump supporters and gunning down gay club patrons.

    Not to make this nutjob out to be noble or anything, but you la Razans and mohammedans are kind of pussy cowards by comparison.

  3. 0bama would invite this guy to the white house if he could get away with it. 10 years is not enough; one week and then the gallows. Make an example of the bastard.

  4. Geoff, in the old Westerns they always showed the prisoner looking out his cell window to be terrorized by the sight of the gallows being built. Lying on the bunk and hearing the carpenters work on his death machine was part of the punishment.
    Build it right outside his jail cell, and make sure he’s watching while all the workmen piss on the rope that will soon break his neck.
