firebomb on NC GOP head quarters
anyone else catch this
http://www.nytimes.com/2016/10/17/us...irebombed.html
Someone threw a fire bomb onto a GOP headquarters building in North Carolina.
Also had graffiti.
I hope they catch who did this an prosecute them harshly. I also hoe Hillary will stand up and adamantly condemn this.

Saw that and can't think of a more idiotic and self-defeating thing to do.
Unless;
I also saw Trumps knee-jerk reaction........................
Immediately, he states that it was done by someone "representing" Hillary Clinton.
The first thing this SOB does is run his mouth with ZERO proof of any wrongdoing on the part of HRC. Which leads me to wonder if it wasn't someone hired by TRUMP. I have no proof of that, but it would be a damned stupid thing for HRC to be behind something like this and I really don't believe she's THAT dumb.
I don't know, guys, this really stinks.
This shit gets scarier by the day.

I agree completely. No way was hillary involved with this. I also don't think trump was - he is just so dam stupid that he thinks he can say what he wants and everyone will believe him.
Times ten on this getting scarier.

It should, because I have little doubt that it is hatred that is motivated and inflamed by the course rhetoric on the left...some examples of which are right here in this thread. There is a subset of the left that owns characterizing their political opponents as fascists and Nazis, and it predates this election cycle. While we don't yet know specifically who did this and what their motivations were, if the perp is ever caught I wouldn't be the least bit surprised to find out that he / she is a hard - core lefty.

Yessir Rob, Trump has been playing the victim card very strong lately, it only makes sense that it was staged by morans.

You are correct in that we should not speculate who did this and why until we find out the truth. But left wing terrorism is very rare in the US now...most of the massacres are lone-wolf gunmen, Islamists inspired by what is going on in the Middle East, or anti-government types like Timothy McVeigh.

Interesting study.
Quote:

The study, which covers the period between April 1, 2009, and Feb. 1, 2015, and includes violence from both the radical right and homegrown jihadists, finds that a domestic terrorist attack or foiled attack occurred, on average, every 34 days. It also shows that fully 74% of the more than 60 incidents examined were carried out, or planned, by a lone wolf, a single person operating entirely alone. A total of 90% of the incidents were the work of just one or two persons, the study found.
