So you are saying the VPs words hold no meaning? I don't get it, of course the VP talking about it signals a plan to do it. What would be the point otherwise?
"We’re going to go after the NGO network that foments, facilitates and engages in violence" -Pence (not sure what NGO he was referring to, that sponsored this shooting)
> It wouldn't logically follow if they were quoting Trump, either.
we should just ignore what he says, right?
> They have started investigating. I can't fathom thinking otherwise
That was an obvious hyperbole. the FBI changed their narrative how many times before they got the shooter (not by their own skill btw)? Cox was talking out of his ass, they did not have any hard information at that point in time.
> And there cannot be any serious doubt that the murder of a prominent political advocate, at an event specifically about politics, during a political exchange, was political.
That is why there are investigations, and why it is important to establish a motive, in a state with real rule of law.
> This is not thought-policing.
That's correct, it's just the vice president directly telling people to dox and harrass people for what they post online.

Or at least, so I've been told for years by others doing the same to right-wingers.
