“In an interview with KTIC Radio, Rempel avoided making political connections to the fire, but he did confirm that two flags in support of President Donald Trump were on his combine. KETV is working to confirm this independently.”

The farmer mentality is this: other farmers will let them borrow their equipment or go help with the harvest. It’s what they do.

We had someone post on a thread yesterday that there are a significant number of farmers who have jumped on the Biden bandwagon (if it can be called that) due to Trump’s Tariffs on China that have hurt the US Agricultural sector.

That may be true, I don’t know. I wouldn’t discount it.

"There’s also a leftist plan … involving targeting 18-wheeler shipping."

Bring it on! Those sissy boys with skinny arms and man buns don't know what they are up against. This country is huge. Take a window seat on your next cross country flight. Observe, there are places in this country where Pinochet-style helicopter rides would make the offenders disappear forever.

I hope the Burn, Loot, Murder/Antifa thugs who did this are caught, tried, convicted and sentenced to long term captivity!

I would not hold my breath waiting for any of the things you mentioned to happen. We are on our own now and will have to stand up and be counted as the Trump supporters in South Florida are doing.

Exactly. Thus it has always been, and thus it always will be.

Honestly, people, where is there any evidence this is about being conservative?

From the article: In an interview with KTIC Radio, Rempel avoided making political connections to the fire, but he did confirm that two flags in support of President Donald Trump were on his combine.

The farmer flew Trump flags on top of the combine.

I’ll consider post election leftist violence a go for weapons free.

I don’t know. I read in the article that had a couple of Trump supporting flags out. To the left, that would have been all that it took. People on our side must, if they are to survive, understand that they are evil people out there who will hurt you very badly even take your life merely for how and what you think. And act accordingly.

$50,000 won’t replace ONE of those 4 items destroyed.

They need more like $500,000 plus whatever insurance will pay out.

I don’t know how farm equipment is calculated for age & depreciation.

A Corn picker can cost above $400,000 & it is used less than one month of the year....

We pay $40,000 for a car we drive every day.

Farming isn’t easy, either.

I agree. It has a history of that 100%.

All the destroyed vehicles were parked apart from each other in a FIELD-—back from the house & away from the road.

My hunch is the perps are local to the County and saw the combine/flags when it was harvesting close to the road. They came back at night and torched it.

You're right but it's not just our education system. Too many people think it's OK to have demonization going on in movies and TV. They celebrate not complaining about it.
The fact is propaganda works. Kristallnacht didn't happen in a vacuum.
