No. I’m sorry, I understand the frustration - I’m frustrated (and appalled, and horrified, and host of other feelings besides) as well - but no. Encouraging violence against real life figures, no matter how fantastical the violence is, is not morally acceptable. It’s just not.

It’s not okay when the other side does it - campaign ads with the opposing politician in a bullseye, holding a shotgun and saying they’re ‘going hunting’ for their opponent - and it’s not okay here, either. Just because they do it, doesn’t make it right.

Libs in the incoming civil war with the right:

"Nooo just because they're shooting at us doesn't mean you get to return fire, walk over to them and see if we can come to a reasonable compromise. Violence is never the answer!"

That scene from the Watchmen movie where the girl puts the iconic flower in the barrel of the soldier's gun and he just blows her away.

I got to get that as a gif

It's referencing the Kent State massacre, as well as this photo which was part of the same protests kind of, just elsewhere https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flower_Power_(photograph)
