If you are referring to what the congressman said, yes.Embellish much?
And I hope they would take the matter to court, with evidence.And I hope any American would stand up and defend against any party or any election being rigged or stolen, if it ever happens.
But he doesn't say IF it ever happens, he is saying it's already happened, and that they (conservatives who believe the lie that elections have been rigged and stolen already) must fight. Does he suggest they fight for more fair and secure elections? No, he's talking about violence as if that is acceptable. It isn't acceptable.The OP states..
""If our votes don't count, there's going to be bloodshed."
What is actually said is..
""The thing we are wanting to fight for is,, it doesn't matter if our votes don't count, because if our election system continues to be rigged and continues to be stolen,, its going to lead to one place and that's blood shed"
The guy in the video never says "If our votes don't count, there's going to be bloodshed."
He actually says "it doesn't matter if our votes don't count"
He then says "because if our election system continues to be rigged and continues to be stolen,, its going to lead to one place and that's blood shed"

So your beef is that a fair (and IMO probably overly generous) paraphrase was presented as a quote?
That's the substance of what you're saying, right? You aren't disputing that he made a threat of violence, just that the quote wasn't word-for-word accurate... no?
What we are not getting from your posts is any outrage that politicians lie to the people about there being rigged and stolen elections. Do you think it is acceptable for politicians to claim this lie is true, and that it's acceptable to be violent as a response to this even IF it was true?If that's all you get out of my posts then thats all you will ever see.
You're right: he doesn't put a qualifier on it. It's more of a promise of violence than a threat.The OP states..

Yes - that's the promise of violence.He then says "because if our election system continues to be rigged and continues to be stolen,, its going to lead to one place and that's blood shed"
I strongly doubt you hope that. You've been dissecting Madison Cawthorne's threat to steal elections through violence and - AFAICT - you haven't said a word against him.And I hope any American would stand up and defend against any party or any election being rigged or stolen, if it ever happens.
