Police in Tempe, Arizona have arrested a man they believe is responsible for a spate of shootings at a Democratic field office in the pivotal battleground state. The alleged shooter's cache of weapons and ammunition suggests he may have been planning a politically motivated mass shooting.Phoenix-bas...
Giving a whole new meaning to "battleground state"
yea some nutjobs will do some shit probably, but it will be pretty isolated. Most Americans still arent at the "im ready to die" point. Even the ones who talk a big game.
And a lot of the Jan 6 chuds really, really thought they'd get away with it. They had two very strongly held beliefs:
If we're holding Thin Blue Line flags and screaming the word constitution, the state wouldn't touch us!
If we really, truly believe, in our heart of hearts, that we're covered by a legal exception to do crimes, the state can't touch us!
The test for many legal exceptions is whether a "reasonable person" would believe such-and-such. But conservatives really think that if they strongly profess a belief, that's just as good. It's why they started calling all their opponents pedophiles. The actual concept doesn't even cross their mind, to them it's just a word that means "can be murdered"
I was thinking yesterday how Trump's still got goons ready to activate and do violence if he loses.

Yeah, RevLeft summed it up like that. These suburban fascists like to cosplay rebels, but deep down they know they're in a cozy spot.
