Obama - “If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun,”

Text Drivers are Killers

Joe Biden - "Time to put Trump in the bullseye."
Trump is being blasted for saying, "IF YOU GO AFTER ME, I’M COMING AFTER YOU.” But Obama truly did make the quote in the title and even snopes and reuters admit it.

On the same date, Reuters published an item that stated, in part:

Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama, who regularly uses language to reinforce his modern-guy credentials, seems to have set that aside when he explained how he won’t be cowed by Republican attacks.

“If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun,” Obama said at a fund-raiser in Philadelphia on Friday, employing a phrase that could have been lifted from a gangster movie. “Because from what I understand, folks in Philly like a good brawl. I’ve seen Eagles fans,” he said, referring to the city’s football team.
 
You go into these small towns in Pennsylvania and, like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing's replaced them. And they fell through the Clinton administration, and the Bush administration, and each successive administration has said that somehow these communities are gonna regenerate and they have not.

And it's not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy toward people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.

Aren't you kind of misrepresenting what Obama meant, by taking his comment out of context.
 
Listen up MAGA morons in the back — in much the same way that it is not “free speech” to walk into a bank, go up to the teller and say, “I have a gun in my pocket, open up the safe or I’ll shoot you.” it is also not free fucking speech say that you’ll be seeking retribution against those who “come for you” when the Judge who let you conditionally walk free pending trial just fucking TOLD you NOT to try to influence or intimidate witnesses, retaliate against anyone, or in any other fucking way attempt to obstruct the administration of justice.
Free speech means that all the dumbfuck brainrot baseless trump worship bullshit you spew every day of the week is protected.
It is your right to be an idiot.
It is not your right to be an idiot while trying to intentionally threaten someone else’s safety with your idiocy.
