Not wanting to shake the hand of someone who is not there with good intentions is fine.

This is the kind of morality these people unironically have

It really makes me sad.

how do you know what his intentions were? by default you think the victims families all have ill-intentions?

SCOTUS nominee has nothing to do with gun legislation? Nothing at all?

Got it

Better just not shake his hand, not say Im sorry for your loss, not anything, should probably just give a nonverbal fuck you and walk away.

And that still doesn't mean they are bad intentions. Intentions you disagree with =/= bad. its called a dialog. If he went in there to berate him and attack him you'd be right. if he just went in there to introduce himself and have an open dialog with someone who will have influence on this country then i don't see anything wrong with that. so what, as citizens we should all just sit quietly otherwise out intentions aren't good?

I like how everyone's face in the crowd is like what the fuck is this random dude doing.

And yelling something when the guy is 10 feet away already isn't the same as extending your hand and telling the guy something face to face. This dad was just some random dude and was treated like some random dude. Maybe introduce yourself first or have some type of dialog instead of just forcing something.

Matters of Kavanaugh's personal politeness, be it his willingness to shake hands with the family members of shooting victims or his habits as a youth basketball coach, are incredibly unimportant in comparison to his views and how they will shape the way in which he uses power.

Did you even fucking read the twitter post in the OP? The dude waited until Kavanaugh got out of a stressful hearing when he could have gone to have a conversation with him on any other time and introduced himself as "the dad of a dead kid" rather than a person who wants to have a dialogue on his own terms. The hostility is obvious and he clearly wanted to trumph his own politicals views through to someone who probably disagrees with him (I don't know nor care) via his dead kid rather than an actual political or judiciary argument, which, again, he could have picked any other day for.

His intentions were not good.

So youre just assuming things to force your narrative. He clearly wanted to do this!...how is that clear? And before you counter with how were his intentions clearly goos?...im not saying one way or another. Youre making the assumptions that his bad intentions were clear. Back that up. Simply walking up to him after a stressful hearing makes that clear?

Isnt that your gimmick though?

In the last week alone the dude has defended an employer firing someone for not attending bible study and said people who burn jerseys never get made fun of while people burning Nike gear get shit on because theyre white

Its best not to engage

This. No one knew what the hell he was doing. He reached out his hand then quickly extended it back, then reached out again while one of Kavanughs aides was approaching to whisk him away.

The video shows the awkwardness of everything.

Refusing to even acknowledge the parent of a recent shooting victim is telling of his position on gun control, which is something he would have to rule on should he be confirmed.

I'm no fan of Kavanaugh, but the dude was clearly blindsided in the middle of a big scrum of people. It honestly doesn't even look like he recognized the man or a word he said, and just took the cue from the security guard to keep walking (Which he should, in all fairness. If your security is telling you to leave when a stranger walks up to you you should probably leave).

Is he? He made himself look worse than if he had just shook the dudes hand. Like this whole thing is a non-issue in terms of his confirmation anyway, I dont get what was smart about making it so weird though.


He probably knew something was off about the guy.

And anyone looking at the video can see it. Dude is a loon

If you read the topic, you'd see it's very clear the guy went there with the intent of causing a scene.
