If it was irresponsible for the media to merely report Trumps remarks, how can it not have been irresponsible for him to have made them?
But seriously folks, the media is under obligation to make known the full extent of Mr. Trump’s idiocy and that must take precedence over the safety of any single individual. The system itself may be at stake in this election and that, er, trumps any other considerations.
What other choice is there? No one has a clue what you’re prattling on about and you don’t seem very interested in clarifying.
duh !! 
Well put.
No, you are.

Isn’t that required here as a rule? Or have we just been fortunate in not seeing an onslaught of exceptions to this as an unofficial rule?
LMAO!
The rules state you must post in English, and the expectation is that your posts must be understandable.

So, as I understand it, your English doesn’t have to be perfect, but you should make at least a sincere effort to be understandable.
Another point on this topic: I haven’t seen any report about Trump’s “2nd Amendment” remark that has failed to include negative commentary about it. (Though it’s possible that some mainstream outlet has simply played the remark with no accompanying criticism, it would be surprising. I would be skeptical that this has occurred.)
The message to the well-armed unstable folks out there is clear: If you attempt to commit an assassination, your idol Trump will be held responsible.
That’s not to say that it’s certain Trump would do time. But it’s likely that there would at least be many calls for him to be indicted.
So for the media to play the remark is not by itself an incitement to violence. It would be such only if it were played with no accompanying negative commentary.
Watching people try to deny something as obvious and clear cut as Trump’s message is actually pretty hilarious.
Trump outrage of the day:
Trump reiterates he literally believes Barack Obama is the ‘founder of Isis’
What the hell is THAT supposed to mean?
it’s not understandable to you ?
Is your smiley green due to the humidity in your whereabouts?
It would be humid in an Aquarium.
john L, knock it off.
Actually participate in the discussion or don’t post, here.

I tell you, if my wife was trying to have a serious discussion with me and I just kept making huge smilies in her face (especially green ones), I’d be kicked out of the house by sundown.
ETA: Guess I don’t have to give advice after a Mod did so… but I liked my green smiley line, so I didn’t go with “nm”
He must be in Rio, and it’s a chemical imbalance.
john L will stop posting emoticons and everyone else will stop commenting on his behavior.
Stick to the topic of the thread.
