But he will have 50,000 chances someone in the stands will be. Way to paint a bullseye on his own ass.

This way? Was there another way he had in mind? That was another ridiculous rant.

That could be taken as an implicit threat about the gun and, what, declaring war on your fellow Americans? How patriotic can you get? He got close to a line there. Damn, it is amazing that someone can do that publicly.

Are they just stupid and ignorant? Or is the spelling part of the brain connected to the brain part that makes them so easy to manipulate through fear?

Oy. Don’t know what his views are but he’s a thin-skinned Grade A asshole on the field.

just talking about using a big gun on some fellow US citizens .
Wonder if trump will be disgusted and call him a SOB?

If there is a few things I’d think trumpers do know how to spell - Civil War would be one imo
