He was the Director of the FBI. Use some judgement man.

He's using more judgment than any Republican in Congress right now.

He's exactly right. We should nix Trump now.

" In Watts, supra, 394
U.S. at 706, 89 S.Ct. at 1401, the defendant was a speaker at an anti-war demonstration who said "'[i]f they
ever make me carry a rifle the first man I want to get in my sights is L.B.J.'" The jury convicted the
defendant of knowingly and willfully making a threat to inflict bodily harm upon the President. The
Supreme Court reversed, holding that the trial court erred in denying defense counsel's motion for judgment
of acquittal. The Court characterized the defendant's statement as crude "political hyperbole" and not a
threat within the meaning of the statute. Watts, supra, 394 U.S. at 706, 89 S.Ct. at 1401.

Likewise, in
Barcley, supra, 452 F.2d at 932, the defendant mailed a letter to his court-appointed attorney, in which, after
profanely criticizing the attorney for the handling of his criminal appeal, he said, "'as soon as I can get this
case situated around in the position I want you are the first S.O.B. that will go, [the prosecutor] will next.'"
The defendant was convicted by a jury of communicating by mail threats of personal injury. The Eighth
Circuit Court of Appeals reversed, holding that the evidence was insufficient to sustain the verdict. The
court concluded that the defendant's letter "is worded in the rowdydowdy argot of the streets, but it does not
clearly convey a threat of injury.... [T]he government must offer something more than the equivocal
language present here to establish the communication of a threat." Barcley, supra, 452 F.2d at 934.

Comey is just being rowdydowdy

In spite of your fantasies, OP, Americans have no “king”.

Seems to me that 86ing someone means to “get rid of them” but that is most likely to mean “impeach him”.

MAGA are such snowflakes.

What are you? His spokesman?

Most likely?

I don’t like Comey. He got us here with his stupid Hillary investigation and announcement. He screwed over our whole country with his misogyny and double standards. But this 86 drama is stupid too and peak hypocrisy from MAGA.

But it’s what comey craves. He’s an attention whore.

DP. Turns out, when they called him the only honest man in Washington, they were right. He is.

And y'all still can't admit it.

He’s a sanctimonious attention whoring turd.

And he’s full of it. He claims to be non-political. And yet, he was just that in the summer of 2016. He knew exactly what he was doing when he wrote that speech calling Clinton and her staff reckless … er careless.

Ifykyk

He laid out the case for prosecuting her and then said "no reasonable prosecutor....." which was a lie. He was trying to split the baby. And, he was FBI, not the Attorney General. It was not his call whether or not to prosecute.
FBI does not make those decisions. They just investigate.

He only did it because more had come out about HRC's abuse of classified information and, maybe, he was trying to save Loretta the trouble--especially since she met with Bill on the tarmac.

You’ll need to drum up another hoax, my friend, one that hasn’t already been tried. And failed.

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

You are wildly out of touch. Please stop embarrassing yourself.

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."

OMG Wikipedia is largely used by people 40 and above. It’s a tool of ancients and it’s dying. Please, you are just digging in and it is embarrassing. Also, I’m not MAGA, I’m a Democrat shocked at how out of touch DCUM is.

Gen Z uses TikTok, not freaking Wikipedia. And on TikTok, you can’t use terms referring to death. So, they get around it. 86 isn’t the only alternative use but it specifically means to call for someone’s death. Examples:

Unalive - suicide (verb or noun)
86 - to kill
A Pew-pew - a gun
To pew-pew - to shoot someone

8647 is a death threat in contemporary parlance. Now, Comey may be ignorant, like you, but that doesn’t change the usage.

Noted Zoomer James Comey definitely was thinking of TikTok. You cracked the case, detective.

😂

Are you always this dense?

Comey almost certainly didn’t know that the usage has changed. But he is supposed to be smart. Look, there are only two options here: (a) Comey was deliberately threatening Trump (unlikely IMO) or (b) Comey, supposedly smart and someone aware of threats, given his role, is entirely unaware of the shift of the term and is therefore ignorant and untrustworthy on matters relating to threats.

Either option makes him look bad. I expect DCUMs to be ignorant. It’s a bad look for Comey.

Comey was the top law enforcement person in the country

Stop making excuses for what he does/doesn't know.

I'm getting tired of the teenage arguments here.

Interesting you have no criticism for the current FBI director who decided to investigate him for clearly protected speech

Usage had changed?

Sit down and shut up, ignoramus.

Mrs. Comey shall be interviewed next. Wow.
Better confiscate the passports.

Criticizing the president is protected whether you like it or not. Idiot.

Can we all agree at least that Comey is an idiot? I saw some analyst on TV that said Comey did commit a crime—he gave his enemies an opening.

Didn't read the whole thread.

It wasn't necessarily criticizing the President. But it wasn't necessarily a threat either. The Secret Service takes this type of speech very seriously and it's within their legal duty to investigate whether it was intended as a threat or not.

Comey didn't do himself any favors, nor did he really endear himself to anyone.
