According to the media:

"Ryan Routh, the accused would-be assassin of President Donald Trump, has written an unusual letter to the judge asking why the death penalty isn’t on the table — and proposing that he be included in a prisoner swap with U.S. adversaries, even suggesting he be sent to freeze in Siberia in exchange for a Ukrainian soldier."

That's pretty extreme. How far are leftists willing to go to defend a country they couldn't even point to on a map?

Sounds more like mental illness to me, and that it wouldn't really matter what his political leanings are.

You're right, regarding Ryan Routh (the would-be Trump assassin.) He was already (probably) nuts before he even turned on the TV.

TV/media is dangerous for people with certain mental illnesses because it instigates things for them.

Not sure how I got tagged, when I was not talking about the "Country they couldn't even point to on a map." I was referring to the "understanding" on why someone might want to shoot a family member due to their political leanings.
