And we're going to have a handful of these kind of cases in four years. Trump will pardon people like Nick and fucking christ I hate this timeline.
Pardon doesn't make his house go away.
We will :)
Nick is a white supremacist fascist asshole, but I'm not aware of him doing anything illegal that requires a pardon. Unless I missed something?
No, he's just a sad excuse for a sack of shit, let alone a human being. He's talked openly about wanting a child bride, amongst other despicable crap that's oozed out of the hole he calls a mouth.
I appaude this woman and any others that come for him and his ilk. Fuck Nick Fuentes.
Correct me if I'm wrong but can't the president only pardon federal crimes? Unless if this happened on federal land I don't think he can pardon it
No such thing a self-defense for a walking rape threat.
Little bitey chihuahua trying to look tough.
This take is dumb...
I'm all for finding these people where they live but she went there alone and seems to have had a dumb plan. She didn't think she may confronted or possibly assaulted? And hey, the guy may have been within his rights
I hope more people show up next time, with a better plan
"Your house, my choice." while everyone takes turns taking a hot steamy dump on his doorstep?
This is it. But put the turd in a bag, with "your house, my choice" written all over it, so that even a scrap can be read, and launch it.
Don't tarry, conceal identifying features, and if he starts getting guarded, wait until that passes, or organize a flash mob via an anonymized medium to increase impact and reduce casualties.
[after putting dog poop in a paper bag and lighting it on fire on Old Man Fuentes' porch]
fluxion: Oh my God, Old Man Fuentes hates shit.
bastion: Shh, here he comes.
Old Man Fuentes: Who the hell is it? What do you want? Judas Priest, Charlie, it's one of those flaming bags again.
Charlie: Don't put it out with your boots, Nick.
Old Man Fuentes: Don't tell me my business, Devil Man. Call the fire department, this one's outta control.
[Old Man Fuentes steps on the bag, then lifts up his boot and smells]
Old Man Fuentes: Eck, poop again.
fluxion: He called the shit "poop".
[fluxion, ShaggySnacks, and bastion laugh hysterically]
bastion: This is the best night of my life.
[They continue laughing]
Old Man Fuentes: I'll get you damn kids for this. You're all gonna die.
Yes. All a part of the plan.
I'm here for it!
I don't understand anyone here who says this lady is in the wrong. If he felt threatened or whatever then don't answer the door? Call the police? Instead he opens the door to attack. People saying "oh that was dumb she was asking for it", wow no.
It is possible for two people in a situation to both make poor decisions.
I would say if you're using an address from a dox, you're probably in the wrong. Doubly so if you consider the person an adversary.
Have you ever seen a more punchable face?
How easily we forget.
God I still want to curb stomp him
Good god, Pai is really begging to be slapped. Look at those eyes. So empty.
He just needs to have his coffee out that giant fucking mug he carried around
Charlie kirk but it'd be really hard to hit.
I don't think anything can top Matt Gaetz as far as punchability goes. His face looks genetically engineered to look punchable
I mean, it's extra large to make it easier
It shrinks into his head as your fist approaches it. Less of a face than an event horizon
Matt Gaetz. Ok at least on the same level.
I still don't understand the supposed tough guys that back this whiney little brat who cannot even get laid, all while labeling everyone and everything they don't like a "cuck".
Also, the same bunch looooove a whiney little brat born with a silver spoon in his mouth, never worked a day in his life, never was in the military, and spends two hours on hair and makeup every day....
I mean, what the actual fuck?
Easy. If your life ain’t going the way you want it to it’s much easier to join a big group and blame an easily identifiable “outside group” ( melanin content, language, religion, apparel, beliefs etc.) than it is to reappraise your way of living and your goals. Then if somebody runs their mouth on this you can get behind them - much much easier than taking personal responsibility for your own personal emptiness and feelings of helplessness. Having said all that, fuck ‘em. Fuck every last one of them.
Not unless he has no trespassing signs up. Even then, I think it's still legal to knock on someone's door.
I am confused as to why Rose would not cooperate with police. It's certainly her right, but I don't understand the choice. Maybe it's "Oh fuck I did not want this attention, just go away"?
Non-zero chance there's lots of Fuentes fans amongst that group. She's probably already getting a bunch of death threats virtually, why would you want that in person as well. Especially when you know that as things are dragged out through the legal system it's not going to end up mattering anyway because that flavor of person doesn't appear to have legal culpability for anything.
Doesn't bode well for the future.
Yeah, in general I am not hearing nearly enough about the high numbers of MAGA people in the police and the military. I'm not sure most folks have considered the gravity of that tendency.
I have seen arguments like "well let's see Trump try X or Y; I'm sure the military would step in". But like, what? If the military steps in it certainly won't be to stop Trump. Quite the opposite.
Military actually leaned Biden in 2020:
Not sure how things stand in 2024 but I can't imagine Trump shitting on a bunch of generals who called him a fascist would help much.
Military veterans seem to support Trump more though, not sure why specifically. And lots of vets in the police. So that might be a different story.
I'd argue he is aware of this, though, which is probably why he is looking towards purging various groups of ideological mismatches.
Why would you expect the police to come down on Rose's side of things? They are much more likely to side with the Neo-Nazis, based on history.
Can you imagine the slander she'd receive on a national level if this went to trial in the next few years? It could be legitimately dangerous to her safety, even if she was found to be completely in the right.
Well, she already got swatted.
Exactly, I don't blame her for not wanting to escalate on that
Watch "Don't Talk to the Police"
He's not even white.
Rumors he also really likes manly men
Nick Fountains
How long do you think before he just vanishes?
I'm surprised the altercation wasn't just a woman assassinating him
I'm honestly surprised it's taking this long. I was expecting same-day justice, delivered straight to his face.
Too bad it was Brienbe of Tarth that showed up.
