Somebody just tried to assassinate Trump

Agree with erimir, I can't make much sense of that post.

But I'm not American. I probably get too involved with your politics, but that's what gets discussed around here and y'all produce some compelling political theatre. I do try to comment in terms of stuff that can be generalised outside of your specific context, such as the limits of "vote the lesser evil" politics, and this attempt to be relevant in general is perhaps one reason why I don't say much about gun control - America seems like a weird and massive outlier in terms of guns. A lot of your conversation about guns just doesn't seem to apply much in other countries.

Also I'm no particular fan of Biden, and I don't see any good coming out of any political assassination attempts in your country right now no matter who the target, so if you're suggesting my opinions might change if some other political candidate was in the firing line that would be incorrect.
