  1. The man arrested for carrying two firearms during a rally for President Trump at California’s Coachella Valley says that they have the wrong idea about him and that he doesn’t even know how to fire the cache of guns.

    “I always travel around with my firearms in the back of my truck. I’ve literally never even shot a gun in my life,” Vem Miller said in a phone interview with [Fox News](https://www.foxnews.com/us/man-arrested-outside-trump-coachella-rally-denies-assassination-intent-support-trump).

    The Las Vegas native was arrested at a checkpoint for the campaign event on Saturday and accused of plotting what would have been a third assignation attempt on Trump. He said that he had no intentions of shooting the Republican presidential candidate, going so far as saying that Trump is “brave” and admires him for going after the media.

  2. >I’ve literally never even shot a gun in my life,”

    What?! He owns multiple firearms but has never fired a gun?

  3. I just don’t feel like I need to feel anything over a cult and the craziness they bring with them.
    I honestly just do not care here.

    Republicans: “Your freedom to own and carry a firearm SHALL. NOT. BE. INFRINGED” 

    Also Republicans: “why are you carrying firearms that’s like really strange”

    This was likely not an assassination attempt.

    However it does highlight how easy it is for people with no training, no knowledge, and no common sense to acquire firearms in the US.

    This guy is an absolute idiot.

    Honestly, it’s probably true. I’d imagine a lot of the nutjobs at these klan meetings hoard guns.

    He is a republican, sovereign citizen nutter who loves trump. I may disagree with this guy on virtually everything, but he definitely wasn’t there to assassinate the one-time president.

    Did you guys notice in arrrr con that the new talking point is: “political affiliation of a would be shooter doesn’t matter in a time like this!!”

    It’s too funny

  9. I’m not understanding why they are not ENCOURAGING their Rally-cultist to carry at rally’s. I mean, they say it will keep the children safe in school, so wouldn’t it also keep the man-child safe in a group of 100k (aka 8k) like minded people?

    Seriously, this is proof that they don’t believe their own agenda of arming teachers. Whatever argument they have against arming cultists could be applied in support of not arming teachers too.

    You’d honestly think that they’d want every MAGA in the the half-full house packing an AR15. They could protect their dear leader, and they could shoot anyone guilty of leaving early. semi-/S

  10. Trump wants his supporters to have guns at his rallies.

    On Jan. 6 he was mad that secret service was making his thugs walk through metal detectors to get into the rally area at the ellipse. He wanted the metal detectors to be removed. Tons of people were on the outside, because they had guns and weapons.

    Looks like he’s changed his stance on that

    Oh man, all that admiration won’t be squat when they continue to paint this as an assassination attempt. Sorry bro, the leopard is hungry for faces.

  12. Funny how they don’t seem to trust the “good guy with a gun” theory anymore. Wonder why that is…

  13. How popular is Trump if his supporters keep coming to his rallies with guns and every time they’re caught and arrested the media/law enforcement call it an assassination attempt?

  14. Trump has to be the only guy in history more likely to be killed by his supporters than anyone else.

  15. _MissionControlled_ on

    This was my thinking too. He’s just another mentally unstable Republican that cannot leave the house without a small arsenal. His guns are his emotional support animals.

  16. That “one” sub is currently claiming this is fake news, misleading headlines, somehow it’s the lefts fault…typical talking points in their safe space

  17. So he was exercising his (checks Republican platform) 2nd Amendment rights and they dared to arrest him and remove him from a rally for his chosen Freedom Loving Candidate? Confusing messaging here.

  18. devilmaskrascal on

    I like how having a gun in Trump’s vicinity now = “assassination attempt.” As if the GOP aren’t the party of gun nuts, “good guy with a gun” fetishes and sovereign citizens?

  19. Once again a Magatt Republicon Trumpanzee armed to the teeth and the first thing out of the fascists is assassination attempt.Just more lies !
