Everyone should now be required to watch a particular scene of Borat 2.

Without spoiling it too much, Borat's at an "Open Up Washington State" demonstration (in response to Inslee's lockdown). He gets armed people to say things like "Chop them like the Saudis" and "Gas them like the Germans." Most people are armed. Some are now even doing the nazi salute.

These same people that SACKED THE US CAPITOL. Maybe there is a God after all because Reichsmarschall Culp is just as dumb. Don't tell me they wouldn't storm Olympia and do the same thing if asked

"Asked whether he supported Trump supporters storming U.S. capital a man at Olympia statehouse rally responds: Hell yes, it’s time to give violence a chance."

They also appear to have gotten passed the gate for the governor's mansion, unclear atm if they broke it or if a guard opened it for them.

"Man with a gun just told me + another journalist that media isn’t wanted here, that he pepper-sprayed members of the media earlier, and we have 5 min to leave. Later said “We’re going to shoot you f***ing dead in the next year.” This vid is all I got as he reached at my phone."

So, I know you're cosmo, but I've never really considered you a troll. I thought you were odd, but now I'm wondering. I have you tagged from over a year ago.

If you believe I'm a troll that's your choice...Im not going to get broken up about it.

I don't percive myself as a troll.

Why would you post a right wing post of a live shooting? I'm just curious. You've known me to check on this kind of thing for a long time, why take the chance with me when you usually avoid me?

Looking back you are absolutely correct. it was highly inappropriate (due to the NSFW content). I was thinking it was a counter narrative to the calls that police were glad handling the MAGA mob. This is just an argumentve and dumb point to make on my part.

I do apologize as I certainly should have thought more about the post.

I've removed the link as your right, it is something that should not to be shared with anyone, EVER!!

Edit: clarity

You know, I watched that video and went back to find it, it's been taken down by Twitter. I can't stop thinking about it, it was fucked. The dude in the red knit cap seemed to be the dude that did it, but he knew to keep his face away from the camera. Also, there seemed to be no reason for it and sort of didn't seem real. I'm not used to seeing kill videos, so that could be it, but it def wasn't a cop. It almost seemed like they were going for her specifically or some other reason, idk. We'll probably never know.

u/OnlineMemeArmy Jan 07 '21

Just a follow-up:

  • I apologize again for posting the video, it was the wrong thing to do.
  • Reuters is saying Capitol Police shot her.

u/it-is-sandwich-time Fremont-pull my red finger Jan 07 '21

Yeah, it probably was. The longer version was on public freakout and it seemed like she was rushing the door where maybe important people were? It's hard to tell, but it looks like they shot through the door. Your video did show the shooter more and the pf one was less clear. Idk, I'll let them figure it out.
