It’s funny how some people, like the Robb Elementary School shooter, can fly under the radar for years and then get his hands on thousands of dollars of rifles and ammo, and be practically absolved of the massacre that happened at his hands. Then there are others, whom we would assume would be all for “red flag” laws, who come right out and call for “someone” to bomb a convention center full of people — and probably had a fit, too, over Elon Musk buying Twitter.
Here’s Ethan Kelin of the H3 podcast casually suggesting that someone should bomb the NRA meeting, much as Bette Midler, who wouldn’t touch a gun, told people to go protest the NRA meeting and “come armed.”

Nah, that's just who Democrats are ... they just like to channel their inner Joseph Stalin, Mao Zedong, Adolf Hitler & Pol Pot.
Allunar (@Allunaro) ~ He walks it back immediately, but in doing so he says the comment was out of "passion" which seems to imply he was speaking from the heart.

There are so many things you can get away with saying out of “passion.”
Midas (@MidasQuestion) ~ Context: Ethan, as a side-business outside of social media, has begun doing consultations with various businesses on how to approach certain social political issues. Lately, he has only been working with a singular client and they have begun mixing their social views - H3. Taliban merchandise, soon.
Ian Miles Cheong (@stillgray) ~ Ethan Klein is not a “far left extremist.” His views are mainstream on the left. Gotta stop whitewashing what the left really wants. They want you dead.
notorious D.O.C (@basicallydoc) ~ Man really said let's solve terrorism with more terrorism.
And his solution wouldn’t even solve terrorism.
Your Buddy Brady (@yourbuddybrady) ~ It's like every week he puts his foot in his mouth. He really needs to learn to control himself. I watched the rest of it too, it didn't get any better after this.
Lepospondyl (@Lepospondyl) ~ Remember when Ethan said he has a shotgun and fantasizes about killing a home invader with it? Dude comes out with deranged violent fantasies sometimes.
E (@EdE604) ~ This very sentiment proves guns aren't the reason for what's happening, psychopathic freaks are.
America does not have a gun problem, it has a mental health problem.
The essential American soul is hard, isolate, stoic, and a killer. It has never yet melted. ~ D.H. Lawrence
