Comey is under investigation for posting a threat online. I guess two assassination attempts just weren't enough for you folks.

Who is 'your folks?' Two people do not represent Democrats. I want him to live a long life so we don't get eyeliner Vance and he goes down as the worst President and he is aware of that fact.

Never in my life has the term "86" meant for someone or something to be killed. It means you've run out of an item or something was canceled.

It's a term used in hospitality industry and the military, and it has nothing to do with violence.

Everyone knows what 86 means; to off, to kill. A top cop who pursued gangs and mobsters obviously knows what 86 means. What a stupid unforced error so this dweeb hack could drum up attention for his corny book.

Nailed it. I read his post and thought to myself that such a manipulative attempt to crawl out of irrelevance and sell books surely wouldn't work. And then all these Trump-hating smooth brains came galloping to his rescue as if Comey is a principled hero, not one of the most attention-hungry scumbags second only to Trump himself. He knew EXACTLY what he was doing with 8647. But I guess Comey really has his finger on the pulse of American idiocy.

I wonder if he will be as smug and arrogant with the Secret Service agents who question him as he was at the hearings he testified at.

I’m sure that the agents are embarrassed enough to be trumps personal hurt feelings errand boys (or girls).

So, 8647 does not mean kill Trump. BUT 8646 means kill Biden. Makes sense. Very consistent.

Right? Remember the giant fuss made by the Biden administration about it? Thought they would never get over it.

So, is it or is it not a death threat? Get the story straight.

It's not. The point is that 8646 wasn't a death threat which is why there wasn't a big fuss over it. You're responding to sarcasm.

NP.

Comey's problem has always been his impulsivity and love of the limelight. He's an attention seeker and was a controversial pick for the top FBI post because of that.

He had it coming for years, honestly. Just because it's a right-wing administration who finally investigates him doesn't detract from the fact that he has been crossing lines for years.

Remember that Comey's post was referring to a PERSON - not an item on a menu.

Merriam Webster:
"Among the most recent senses adopted is a logical extension of the previous ones, with the meaning of “to kill.”
"I hate to see the guys always getting eighty-sixed," she said, using military jargon for killed in action. "Not fair.”
— John Kifner, The New York Times, 3 Feb. 1991

I went to an elite law school and learned it from my waitress friends.

There was a whole campaign from trump supporters in 2022 with hats and t-shirts that said 86 46 and no one raised an eyebrow.

1. The MAGA getting worked up about this are massive hypocrites, given that they are fine with death threats to judges, Democrats, etc. Nobody can seriously believe MAGA are opposed to death threats to politicians. MAGA perfected the art of threatening to kill politicians. So, all their hand-wringing is clearly just political posturing.

Please tell us which MAGA you are speaking of. No one I know is in favor of any of that.

Then, please tell me which Dems came out against the threat on Kavanaugh? Remember, Schumer? "You will reap the whirlwind."

PP here. You cannot be serious. Please educate yourself and then come back.

And of course Democrats have not opposed death threats. They are currently pretending 8647 isn’t a reference to assassination.

As usual, every maga chud accusation is a confession.

Are you dim? I am the one saying that MAGA are fine with death threats to judges and other politicians. It’s absolutely hypocritical for them to be complaining about this.

Of course, we see the same abhorrent behavior from many Democrats.

And that was correct. You shouldn't be investigated for saying "get rid of the President" even if you can squint and see a threat in that. "Get rid of" also means "kill" in the right context, and we should all have to freedom to say "get rid of" the current president.

MAGA being a bunch of drama queens again? Go figure.

Actually you may not have thought of it as a death threat but it was and still is. The people behind it say it is a death threat. How is there still 8646 still being sold?

Wildly out of touch with respect to a term that has its own Wikipedia page. And guess what? No killing involved.

Another MAGA moron. Or in MAGA-speak, you are a r***rd.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/86_(term)

"In the hospitality industry, it is used to indicate that an item is no longer available, traditionally from a food or drinks establishment, or referring to a person or people who are not welcome on the premises. Its etymology is unknown, but the term seems to have been coined in the 1920s or 1930s.

Military personnel might use "86" to refer to scrapping equipment (e.g., "That old radio got 86'd") or ending a plan or mission (e.g., "The op was 86'd due to bad weather"). It's not an official term in military doctrine or manuals, but it's part of the informal jargon and culture of soldiers, sailors, and airmen due to its common and frequent use, and is a concept military members are assumed to understand, although it originates in broader civilian language."
