Who would allow themselves to be videoed for that for the whole world to see if it wasn't real?

These acts of vandalism are almost always some unhinged lefty nutcase.
Whether it be messing with a vehicle, your home, a business, or…you personally.
Usually ramps up in election years. The lawn signs, flags and bumper stickers everywhere push them over the edge.

If you watched the video, it was clearly not acting.

Story picked up here although it references gateway pundit. Gives guys full name age and whatnot so you can google further to your level of satisfaction.

IDK, because if you consume left wing media they'll carry the stories about the right wing acting bad and vice-versa.

So, you're highly susceptible to selection bias as to what you hear about.

Additionally, you will have more libs living in cities and well...vandalism is more common there so is it even really reported or investigated?

I just heard this story, another grown man with TDS keying cars. This one on a skateboard. He appears to be quite unhinged and dangerous.

https://nhjournal.com/trump-hating-r...lism-incident/

Quote:
A 37-year-old Concord realtor who espoused anti-Trump sentiments online is being held for allegedly keying dozens of cars during the recent state GOP convention as police found a disturbing cache of guns, zip ties, and suicide notes in his apartment.

Lawrence Anthony Dunlap of South Spring Street was arrested and charged Friday with 11 felonies for the incident that took place earlier this month.


The investigation into Dunlap’s connection to the vandalism became intense Friday when Concord Police issued a “be on the lookout” alert for Dunlap over concerns for his safety and the safety of police who might encounter him, according to reporting by Tony Schinella at the Concord Patch.

Dunlap was reportedly seen leaving his home on foot Friday morning. Police report finding guns, a manifesto, suicide notes, and a bag containing zip ties, masks, and gloves.

Dunlap’s social media profiles were largely scrubbed Friday. But some remaining posts indicate an antipathy for former President Donald Trump and Trump’s supporters. In a rambling Facebook post accusing Trump voters of racism and law enforcement of denying the events of Jan. 6, 2021, Dunlap called Trump a dictator before oddly calling for unity.

He should plead not guilty by reason of insanity. Get a shrink to testify he's obbesed with his hatred of Trump and supporters.
I know, right? He brings New York insanity with him on vacation?

He should be boating, fishing, drinking rum punch, and plowing the wife. Maybe not in that order.

Thanks for the link.

Yet another reason to hate the press. Not a huge story, but it was ignored completely by any sites not right of center.

I think the better explanation is that anti-Trump propaganda causes normal people to break -- in other words, TDS.
Given the way his wife reacted to his arrest, she's had enough of it. This is clearly not the first time he said or did something stupid over his TDS and embarrassed his wife.

It may be his first time getting caught, which I'm sure surprised him because Trump supporters are all stupid and he's too smart to get caught.

The guy is living the life. Florida Keys vacation, time away from that hellhole where he lives. And he can't live and let live like a normal adult? He's so triggered by a bumper sticker that he damages a woman's car?

Like the cop said, "I watched the video and I thought, there's no way it's that guy. He's old enough to know better." Nope, not when you have TDS. He probably had BDS when Bush was president.

The video was taken by the arresting officer. It was probably obtained via a FoIA request.

Democrats, leftists, progressives are renowned for this intolerant behavior and exposing it is a good thing, imo.

Yep, what stories they even bother to cover (or not) is the first line of bias.

Noted several times around here that you can 100% facts accurately and be incredibly biased just by what you do cover, don't cover and leave out.
