Anyone who sets them self on fire is mentally ill, it falls in line with needing safe space and toys to feel comforted. I don't know how bad this person was burnt but hopefully they will heal and get mental help.

Right... so it's never the guy open carrying

or the guy yelling at a mom in public for breastfeeding

or the mass shooter who goes into a black church and kills 9 people...

There are crazies on both sides of the spectrum.

so a guy decided to protest trump by immolating himself. and they expect more of this. perhaps what needs to happen is they sell tickets to these self immolations, and give the proceeds to performer, the next of kin if they dont survive, or their favorite charity.

Remember, the progressives want this Californian's vote to count more than the woman's vote in Wisconsin. I don't think "The Committee of Eleven" in the Constitutional Convention anticipated this flaming idiot when arguing for the Electoral College, but then maybe they did.

Wisdom for the ages in our system of government, including the presidential electoral system. Some people should not be allowed to vote. And, of course this guy is a strong argument against democracy.

Thank you sir. May God Bless you in your recovery.

Maybe we can take up a collection for these poor, deranged Snowflakes. I'll toss in 10 gallons.

That was politically-induced like this incident appears to be.

The Buddhist monks were protesting the execution of Buddhists by the S. Vietnamese govt. As far as I know, Trump hasn't executed anyone. I guess some people are really, really offended by his Tweets.
