And don't forget Governor Phil Scott's brave and forward leaning response when queried regarding heavily armed thugs associated with Slate Ridge terrorizing our fellow Vermonters: "What would you suppose we should do?" ("Scott on Slate Ridge response: ‘What would you suppose we should do?’", VTDigger, 10/30/20)

Just sayin'.

At this point, /u/RamaSchneider could present the solution to cold fusion, and most of us would still assume it's some random bullshit.

Nah, I always give him a fair shake. He has a good take sometimes. Lots of folks here do see a name and downvote though. Kinda sad and definitely contributes to the Reddit echo chamber.

Your opinion of your peer redditors is charming.

That's a word. Accurate is another. No reason to pretend it's something it's not. This place is a cesspool. An amusing cesspool but a cesspool none the less.

Fuck you Rama always stirring up shit. You as well as I know no crime had been committed then. The guys are scumbags sure but this is still America and we have rights. Can't just start witch hunts without evidence which is what the Governor was trying to express. I suspect you know all this though and that makes it worse. You also chopped the most important part of the quote off to suit your agenda. Here it is in full:

“But if it doesn't rise to the level of criminal offense, what would you suppose we should do?”

Knock it off asshole.

An alternative: Governor Phil Scott could have gone down to the Slate Ridge area and stood shoulder to shoulder with our fellow Vermonters who were being terrorized.

But he chose not to.

I've been told on multiple occasions that threatening words and behavior are not themselves illegal; but I don't care - Scott could have done the decent thing, but our Governor was more interested in staying above the fray.

That was Phil's choice.

My posts did not make him do that.
