Guns will be allowed immediately outside the convention center in the outer perimeter surrounding the Secret Service-controlled area due to Wisconsin state law.
Not sure what the deal is with tennis balls, raquet balls hurt a whole lot more!
Person who enters an argument with insults presumes to lecture about spending “opponents” goodwill.
Tell others immediately to go fuck themselves when met with the mildest rebuttal before going on yet another near irrelevant tangent.
Also missed the very clear implication that while the WW1 may well have been on the horizon the Duke’s assassination initiated it and the relevance to killing Trump. Especially given US internal politics and its geopolitics.
Why do I even bother trying and failing at being witty when the jokes write themselves.
It wasn’t an insult. You’re the person who sees any disagreement as a critique of their nonexistent intellectual authority, apparently.
Also I didn’t miss any implications. FF’s assassination couldn’t by itself prepare troops and railroads for close war. That it was used as a formal cause means nothing. In 1870 France declared war on Prussia with the formal reason of being insulted (EDIT: this is false, they made some demands and such, dunno where I got this from). Tail doesn’t wag the dog.
A sardonic, “you can’t be that silly” passes muster, and is semantics either way.
I caught your edit and I gotta ask, are you Serbian? I assumed you were just looking for an argument given the tone of your replies but the edit made me think otherwise. You surely can’t have interpreted my initial comments as blaming Serbia (or even Black Hand necessarily) for starting the war right? Because that is not what I was doing.
No, not Serbian, but I’m nervous about possible misinterpretations of such events, as today these may cause justifying “smaller” crimes to avoid some supposed bigger catastrophe. As that would happen right before WWII.
My first comment was just that there’s usually no single cause of war, and if FF’s murder and Serbia rejecting one part of the ultimatum were that, then the war would last for a few months after which everyone would apologize to each other and go lick their wounds.
