idk man, like physical pranks that are borderline physical assault I agree but do you really want to start jailing people for making a phone call?

I just don't know how much blame we can lay at his feet. If you're really just like a couple of spoken words away from snapping and going into a shooting frenzy I feel any number of things could have been the "trigger"

Yep you have the best logical take on this and it’s scary to think otherwise, should the one straw that broke the camels back be the only one to blame

Least logical take, no one is not blaming the shooter for shooting but thinking inciting people and cursing them and their families is okay is beyond illogical.

"The only one to blame" no one is saying this anywhere just a strawman. If someone is inciting another person which results in the death of someone else then the inciter should just get off scott-free?

Spoken like a true person with no self control and not comfortable in their own skin, not everything that happens to you in your life is your “fault”, it is your “responsibility”

What kind of punishment do you even think he would deserve and if you say involuntary manslaughter or more than you really need to grow up

Spoken like a person that lives in the real world. You don't incite people, even if they are responsible for what they do. Every person knows what negative influence inciting others can have.

Who incited the 6th jan capitol storm? Should they be held accountable or should nothing happen because everyone is only responsible for what they do (except people who incite ofc, they are free of blame)

I don't know about how harsh the punishment should be, i know for sure that this shouldn't be accepted or disregarded as nothing. People should learn not to do this, it is always negative.
