    If he was left-wing, this would be prosecuted (and propagandized by the media) as terrorism.

      As a non American, wtf happened with that dude that almost killed trump? I feel like I heard about the whole thing when it happened, but it kinda just went away and I’m not even sure what that guy’s deal was. Maybe because we didn’t get all the headlines in Canada, but it certainly felt like it was brushed under a rug to me.

        He got killed by the secret service during his attempt, I’m not sure they were later able to assess motive and stuff

        Seems like there was more reporting on their clothing choice than on the person themselves.
