'Shoot To Kill': Trump Ally Roger Stone Calls For Violence In Chilling Video

https://www.huffpost.com/entry/roger-stone-shoot-to-kill_n_63329011e4b04cf8f35ac500

Roger Stone, a longtime ally of Donald Trump, told a documentary crew a day before the 2020 election that he was ready for violence.

“Fuck the voting, let’s get right to the violence,” he’s heard saying in footage obtained by CNN from filmmakers Christoffer Guldbrandsen and Frederik Marbell. “Shoot to kill. See an antifa? Shoot to kill. Fuck ’em. Done with this bullshit.”

Clips from the documentary, “A Storm Foretold,” are expected to be featured during this week’s hearing by the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 assault on the U.S. Capitol carried out by Trump supporters. The film is set for release later this year.

... for millions and then drop the legal action if she gives up Stone as the man behind that hit
job and he then sues Stone for 10 million for damages.

He's got a reclining lawn chair, a pitcher of martinis and a great pair of binoculars to watch it from a safe distance.

He should be tried convicted and hung publicly just a Washington did with Benedict Arnold's accomplice. He would have gladly hung Arnold if he had been apprehended.

He takes pride in being the worst human being he can. He would be even worse if he had the courage.

Stone is angrily contending that the video is a deep fake. This sounds much like the Trumpian bleating of fake news.

I sincerely hope that the Jan 6 committee has the video forensically examined so this is conclusively validated.

I know Stone is lying about this as he lies throughout the video.

I was fortunate that I didn’t have a
mouthful of coffee to spray across the room when I got to the part where he claimed that Republicans don’t cheat and then referenced Gore v Bush.
