FOND DU LAC – A 19-year-old man accused of setting fire to a building in Fond du Lac early Sunday that included Republican U.S. Rep. Glenn Grothman’s office cited the TikTok ban as a motive in the incident, according to authorities.
The Fond du Lac Police Department said the Menasha man was arrested after being found near a strip mall, 525 N. Peters Ave., that contained Grothman’s district office.
Fuck Glenn Grothman.
Don’t torch his office over it though
There’s many other reasons to torch his office. You should check out what his congressional district looked like.
That’s not a reason to commit arson. You shouldn’t go around burning things and causing destruction.
I mean, you do if you want to force change, punish more than a single person, want to disrupt activities, or want to make as big a scene as possible to gain visibility.
Violent protest may not be popular, but it can work.
The real problem here is that the moron doing it did it poorly, with little or no real planning, and ran the risk of unnecessary collateral damage. You gotta be careful with fire, and this wasn’t careful
Really? You’re actually advocating arson as a potentially safe and effective way to effect social change?
Grow the fuck up. I’m so glad you people lost political power this cycle.
Apologies that leftists aren’t too much of cowards to hide behind talking heads promoting stochastic terrorism. I mean it’s not like leftists lying about what operations are being performed at hospitals led to bomb threats being called in or riling people up calling for trial by combat and needing to fight like he’ll moments before people violently entered the capitol building. Or constantly threaten to run over protesters, and many times actually do.
I could spend more time looking up and pointing out all the right wing violence, but asymmetric bullshit principle and all that. Fuck off, progressive and left leaning people are tired of the double standard when it comes to political violence.
So you just gonna ignore all the times republican congressman and voters pushed for violence and actually committed it?
Talk about needing to grow the fuck up.
You’re only not a slave due to people going around burning things and causing destruction.
Interestingly, people are only ever slaves as a result of that same process
Yes you should.
This person was a Republican, that’s reason enough to fire bomb their face let alone a victimless crime like an empty office.
Only status quo lovers argue against individual violence while sucking off state violence.
The vote was overwhelmingly in favor of the ban, dude, on both sides of the aisle, and every other House member in Wisconsin voted in favor of it. Your one legislator is not the deciding factor on this.
It was inserted into a bill for foreign aid to Ukraine and Israel. That’s what had bipartisan support.
Hardly. It even had a unanimous supreme court decision to uphold the ban. The ban had bipartisan support up until what’s his name started jerking everyone around.
Legally, this is all well-covered ground with the Grindr divest or ban law that was wrapped up the week before COVID lockdowns started. So most people forgot about it.
Because there’s money involved, 47 wants to spin everyone around in hopes of ByteDance changing their mind and selling to one of his tech bro campaign funders so that big financial benefits from knowing the president can stay in day 1.
More reasons not to vote for it. Quite the flex to say ‘I had to vote for it, because it was in the must-pass genocide bill!’.
