Guess he showed us!

[Initech]

1. First, they came for Stewart Rhodes...

And I couldn't stop laughing, because, really, fuck that guy!

[orangecrush]

4. +1

[LoisB]

11. +1

[hibbing]

16. haha n/t

[wryter2000]

31. You win the internet

[Haggis 4 Breakfast]

63. Isn't his first name actually Elmer ?

[soldierant]

66. It is, which is ironic.

Mostly because of Elmer Fudd, Elmer is considered to be a very funny name. It actually means "noble" and/or "famous (not notorious).
Stuart comes from the word steward - a guy oho worked around the stables (which inluded shoveling you-know-what. And, yes, the Stuart dynasty rose from that level.)

Rhodes, on the other hand, is a greek island.

[Whatthe_Firetruck]

67. Steward also means something...

... Like a major-domo. He'd be the guy in charge of the shovelers and everyone else working in a noble's manor. One of the three Scottish tatans I have in my ancestry is Royal Stewart (the others being Gordan and Cameron, I also married a man descended of MacLeod of Harris, of Highlander fame).

[soldierant]

80. Oh, yes.

But not royal blood.

[hatrack]

85. IIRC, the original derivation is from "sty-ward" - IOW, the dude who took care of the pigs

Not that there's anything wrong with that, but probably not as noble as Rhodes would like to think.

[COL Mustard]

73. Stupid comes from Stuart

At least in this instance!

I bet his Yale Law classmates are thrilled to be associated with him.

[soldierant]

81. LOL!

Stupid actually comes from Latin. But in this case ... yeah.

[Haggis 4 Breakfast]

82. Skull and Bones Boys

were usually wealthy, legacy students.

Think - George H. W. Bush !!

[GreenWave]

2. As she so sweetly put it,

"I had to take care of a guy with a hole in his head." (When the traitor dropped a loaded gun and discharged into his eye.)

[orangecrush]

3. Someone made a joke

About the eyepatch and prison.

I can't repeat it here.

[EYESORE 9001]

12. Too bad I can visualize it anyway

🤮

[orangecrush]

14. Your handle

I'll keep an eye out for YOU!

[BlackSkimmer]

23. Right, because prison jokes about sexual abuse are SO funny.

[rubbersole]

32. For unrepentant traitors...yes, yes they are!

BTW BS, I like your posts. rs

[BlackSkimmer]

41. Well, thank you for the compliment, but I disagree vehemently on prison rape.

We can't think it's fine for some. It simply doesn't work that way.

[spike jones]

59. I agree, he should be stood against a wall and shot, then throw his dead ass in jail. n/t

[COL Mustard]

78. I agree with you. What Rhodes, Meggs, Watkins and the others did is detestable and they should be

Imprisoned for a long, long time. However, they should NOT be subjected to rape. No one should. Ever, period.

[OMGWTF]

18. And to make the story even more interesting, this fidiot was a gun safety instructor.

[orangecrush]

22. ...

[AllaN01Bear]

42. hem.

[lastlib]

46. Thank the gods Elmer didn't play with subatomic particles.....

WE, um, dodged a bullet there.......

[jaxexpat]

49. Only in America does it sound so.......obviously true. This stuff can't be made up.

[Shermann]

40. I'd be interested to know how such an accident is possible

Modern firearms have a number of safeties to prevent unintended discharges from impacts. All bets are off with really old or defective guns though.

[CTyankee]

5. Did ya'll know this guy graduated from Yale Law School?

https://www.latimes.com/world-nation/story/2022-09-26/from-yale-to-jail-oath-keepers-founder-stewart-rhodes-path

[orangecrush]

6. Apparently

He blew must of his brains out when he dropped that gun.

[gratuitous]

26. He dropped a gun, not a pea shooter

[DBoon]

7. Was that "Yale" of "jail"?

referencing old Dilbert cartoon

[TheRickles]

30. From the other side of the aisle, David Dellinger's memoir is called "From Yale to Jail".

He was quite a guy.

[DENVERPOPS]

20. There is a lot of strangeness

about RW attendees of Yale...........skull and bones???? etc etc etc........

[homegirl]

25. Did he

ever take and pass a bar exam in any state?

[CTyankee]

28. That's a good question!

I wonder...

[TexasBushwhacker]

55. Must have but was disbarred in Montana in 2015

His wife supported him as a stripper while he went to college. What kind of "Oath Keeper" would accept that?

[wryter2000]

33. I have to ask my sister if she knew him

Amazing.

[Stallion]

36. I think It was the Yale Lock School

[erronis]

47. Good one. And he lost his keys....

[Paladin]

43. I used to think an Ivy League law degree would be pretty sweet.

Rhodes, DeSantis and Cruz (among others) have ruined that notion for me.

[ExWhoDoesntCare]

84. It's not where you got the degree

It's what you do with it once you have it.

The Clintons are both Yale law alums. I have no doubt whatsoever that they have put their degrees to better use--especially Hillary--than any traitor party alum from the same institution has.

I believe that what makes their degrees worth the paper they're printed on is that they went into acquiring it with the right idea: To master a subject so that they could put it to good use for everyone, not just themselves.

For the Clintons, some of it was to better themselves, but some of it was also to better their world. You know they were hitting the books hard and studying their butts off to learn as much as they could. They made the most of that degree, and I'm sure they've retained a great deal of what they learned while getting it.

For traitor party thugs, it's about what the degree can do for them--the prestige, the doors opened, the money to be made. They learn just enough to get by, or get the grades they need to open doors for them. In the case of a Yale law degree, enough to get a Supreme Court clerkship or intern at a prestigious law firm.

But they don't give a fig about subject knowledge, never mind mastery. They probably remember precious little of what they learned while getting it. They were too busy plotting how to check off boxes to get themselves ahead. I doubt if they remember anything about most of the classes they took, not even the professor's names.

This happens in all career fields. We at DU notice the law school thugs, because so many of them use an Ivy degree to catapult them into political office. I can assure all of you, though, that it happens in every field you can think of--the physician field is especially rife with these traitor trash wankers, because the money and prestige for doctors can be so high. Think Frank Burns on M*A*S*H. He is the epitome of someone who went to medical school not to help people, but to get rich and claim respect he didn't deserve.

Whenever I see these traitor party thugs with advanced degrees, I'm always thinking in the back of my mind that they're all dopplegangers for Frank Burns.

And I bet they also eat worms.

[Buns_of_Fire]

86. I'm always reminded of the old joke:

Q: What do you call the person who graduated dead last in their class in medical school and passed their state licensing exam by the slimmest of margins?

A: Doctor.

[PortTack]

48. So did George jr...spent most of his time high on cocaine

[central scrutinizer]

52. Speaking of Yale alums

[Buns_of_Fire]

58. Maybe it was that *other* Yale, you know, the one

across the road from Oxford, between Pixley and Hooterville, where Jethro learned all his fancy cipherin'.

[IronLionZion]

65. Yale to jail pipeline

Plenty of educated people do illegal things when they clearly know better.

[Historic NY]

75. He is like another Yale alumnus

Meatball Ron

[Carlitos Brigante]

8. "Want some more?!!! My son also hates my guts!!! Take that!!" nt

[Mopar151]

9. My ass is so tough......

That I carry a gun into the bathroom, 'cuz I might shit a wildcat!

[Mopar151]

10. I have to hold a gun on myself

So that I won't cut my own throat with a razor when I shave!

[caballojm]

13. I feel pwned!

I hope I can get over it.

[Permanut]

15. Me too..

So that's a win for him.

[iscooterliberally]

17. Always remember to cross your tees and dot your lower case jays.

[BlackSkimmer]

21. He also shot himself in the eye with his own gun.

Priceless.

[CanonRay]

24. He'll slide right into the Aryan Brotherhood at whatever prison he gets assigned.

[IronLionZion]

27. Did Nazi that coming. Totally blindsided

More MAGAts should shoot themselves in the eye. The eye patch makes them look like pirates

[Fozzledick]

53. I always thought he looked like a bad joke from a sick parody of a Jean Shepherd story.

[LakeArenal]

29. Making America great!!!!

[Stallion]

35. ...And My Son Turned me Into the Feds!!!

[nowforever]

37. Trump enabled all of this

He should have been arrested on Jan. 7th.

[oswaldactedalone]

38. Yes

So much yes, or at least Jan. 21st.

[Artcatt]

39. Yarrrrr! I shot me own eye out, matey! I'll shoot you as soon as to look at ye, with my remaining

eye!

[vlyons]

44. and he's uglier than dog-poo

and now he's a felon, who's too stupid to understand that being a convicted felon is not the same as getting the medal of honor.

[Joinfortmill]

45. Shawshank is coming for you, buddy.

[ret5hd]

50. They aren't worried about him tunneling out...

He would always circle to the right and end up back in his cell anyway.

[BOSSHOG]

61. To be housed with the sodomites

[Ford_Prefect]

51. What part of "Oops!" do you not understand Stewart?

[C Moon]

54. Spoken like a true patchtriot.

Matey.

[Hassler]

56. Don't do anything stupid, Elmer, like shooting out your other eye.

[kimbutgar]

57. Unfortunately in prison he will radicalize the white supremacists there

I hope he is put in solitary confinement and given limited assess to other prisoners. No internet for him only the Bible and history books!

[BOSSHOG]

60. I GUESS HE OWNS US ALL

[lpbk2713]

62. Enjoy that prison food.

Bon appetit.

[dchill]

64. Can't top that!

[Waterguy]

68. The jerk of the town, met all the other jerks on the world wide web and they formed the jerkiest

The biggest jerk in the town, met all the other jerks on the world wide web and they formed the biggest jerk society
because - what else did they have going for themselves anyhow

sometimes I think of middle school and the biggest jerks in the school threatening all us kids who were
first of all going through puberty and just struggling to find some self identity

And then, the first thing you can soundly identify about your life on this planet earth is that,
hell yes, some people really are jerks - but hopefully, later on in your life you feel sorry for
them, somebody really messed with that poor jerk, and I can only imagine what kind of shit
hit the fan in that persons family when they were young.

but then I think, those jerks, I don't know if it's something in their DNA or what,
maybe it's society, social media, too many late night movies like Mad Max, and
wishing they were The Toe Cutter because it felt like how things should be.

It's kind of creepy - this people Donald Trump seems to command
to say the least.

The Supreme Court he hath helped Mitch McConnell and Leonard Leo to create

[alfredo]

69. Trump is cursed. Any relations with him will bring you down in the gutter

[calimary]

70. He's the star of my Quote-of-the-Week, that leads our Indivisible group's Call to Action email.

Every week starts with a timely announcement and a quote-of-the-week. Here's the one for next week!

“I was suddenly taking care of a man with a hole in his head.”
- Tasha Adams, estranged wife of eye-patch-wearing Oath Keeper founder Stewart Rhodes (just sentenced to 18 years in prison for leading a plot to help Trump stay in power after losing the 2020 election) who once accidentally dropped a .22-caliber handgun and shot himself in the face, costing him his left eye.
https://www.cnn.com/2023/05/25/politics/oath-keepers-sentencing-stewart-rhodes-kelly-meggs/index.html

He lost an eye because he was a careless, sloppy jerk who didn't understand how to handle a firearm. And he certainly didn't care to take care!

[FakeNoose]

71. About Rhodes' former wife, I'd like to say she dodged a bullet

... but she really didn't.

She met him when she was 18 and right out of high school. He was 25 and already medically discharged from the military. (He broke his back while parachute jumping.) They get married, and her parents gave her the money they had saved up for her college education. By this point Stewart takes the money and puts himself through law school and makes Tasha work fulltime in Las Vegas as a stripper to support them both.

Nice guy huh? I learned this by reading a couple of paragraphs, and I don't want to know any more.

She is well rid of him!

[calimary]

72. She's finally rid of him - hopefully forever.

I hope she’s far, far away and not traceable when he gets out. Assuming, of course that he ever does get out.

Close that door and LOCK it, Tasha. Literally AND figuratively.

[KY_EnviroGuy]

74. The new Republican badges of honor.

That and who has to pay the most for attorneys and bail.......

[spanone]

76. Elmer didn't 'own' a single 'lib'.

[COL Mustard]

77. Ah, another picture of Stupid Rhodes.

Makes my day every damn time.

[spanone]

79. He 'owned' no one.

FUCK OFF ELMER.

[JuJuChen]

83. He really got me, ouch lol
