I was going to say my reaction would depend on what they were protesting... but nah, lighting yourself on fire is just a dumb fucking thing to do all around.

But yeah even if they were a super duper liberal and protesting something that I agree with, setting yourself on fire is so unbelievably goddamn fucking stupid and accomplishes absolutely nothing aside from either killing or horrifically disfiguring yourself and everyone else just going oh, anyway

From the Washington Post: Julie Berman, 56, a Manhattan resident who came to the plaza to photograph protesters, saw the man set himself on fire. He had a sign saying something about Trump and Biden working together to orchestrate a coup, she said, and another one alleging some kind of Ponzi scheme. She said he told her to get back, then doused himself with liquid, threw some fliers in the air, then doused himself again before flicking a lighter and lighting himself on fire. Also, reportedly he burned for about a minute before someone got there with a fire extinguisher. The police arrived shortly afterward. The man is reported to be in critical condition. --- "It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose. That is not a weakness. That is life." ... Copied to Clipboard!

I read somewhere else the fliers said stuff like "NYU is a mob front" etc.
So - may not be related to Trump specifically. More of a general anti-government crazy person. Who knows. --- All your favorite RPGs: http://www.youtube.com/user/silvosforever http://i996.photobucket.com/albums/af84/silvosforever/funnygif.gif ... Copied to Clipboard!

If this is true and this is his sign that he left, he doesn't appear to particularly like either Presidential candidate, but clearly infected by a conspiracy theory mindset that is being actively encouraged by one side more than the other...
