He didn't just say the military should be deployed, he said the military should kill everyone. He literally called for mass slaughter, a fucking war crime.

@eli1601 What the fuck do you think "no quarter" means, idiot?

@eli1601 Hes right about you, you know.

@eli1601 Sounds like mass slaughter to me. Very much so. Just like lining people up and shooting them where they stand. That is what that term "Take No Quarter," means.

@eli1601 [quote]The phrase no quarter was generally used during military conflict to imply combatants would not be taken prisoner, but killed.[1][/quote]

I realize educating you is a lost cause, because you already know this and are choosing to act as if it isn't true, and yet I feel compelled to try.

@OggggO hmmmm, I never heard that!

@fanuc2013 Well, what else does, "Take No Quarter," mean?
@eli1601 You might want to see someone for that uncontrollable laughter. It could be a sign of psychosis.

@OggggO and if you believe that will ever happen, I have a bridge I want to sell! A bargain price!
OggggO36-40, M
@fanuc2013 The likelihood doesn鈥檛 change the fact that he publicly called for it.
fanuc201351-55, F
@OggggO that is ridiculous.
OggggO36-40, M
@fanuc2013 And yet, it happened. Such are the times we are living in.
fanuc201351-55, F
@OggggO I can't believe anyone would call for mass killings! I would have to hear that myself! When and where did this happen? This is so far out that I can't believe I'm dignifying it with an answer!
OggggO36-40, M
@fanuc2013 I already provided a link to fucking lawyers reacting to his statement, but fine:

@OggggO just as I thought, you are listening to someone else's spin on a story, and you believe it! Haven't you ever heard that everything on the internet is not always true?
OggggO36-40, M
@fanuc2013 That鈥檚 [i][b]his[/b][/i] twitter for fuck鈥檚 sake, it鈥檚 where he said it. How much more clearly does it need to be spelled out for you?
fanuc201351-55, F
@OggggO hmmmm, I'm looking at it right now, and I fail to see anything calling for mass murder! Now it has been standard procedure for many years that if martial law is declared, looters can be shot on sight, but that has only happened on rare occasions.
