Summary

Donald Trump condemned a vandalism attack at his Scottish golf course by activists, calling the perpetrators “terrorists” and demanding they be “treated harshly.”

The March 8 incident at Trump Turnberry included red paint, anti-Trump graffiti, and messages like “Gaza is not 4 sale.”

Police charged a 33-year-old man and arrested two others. Palestine Action claimed responsibility, citing U.S. complicity in Gaza’s destruction.

Activists criticized the leaders for focusing on property damage while Gaza faces ongoing bombardment.

    I remember. And I’ve been calling them terrorists since day one, since the term is appropriate. Also, I’ve been pointing out, when the right cries about the term “insurrectionist”, that that term is being far too nice.

        That, too, but they got especially butthurt over the term “insurrectionists” when The Media used it. I would not be surprised if donvict gets around to “investigating” the Very Nasty Liberal Media for using such terminology, TBH.

        In my view, calling them insurrectionists was downplaying it. And calling them “rioters” - fuck that noise. Riots are not planned.
