Gary Johnson on terrorism: 'Look, this stuff is gonna happen'
The Washington Times, Aug 3, 2016, Anna Giaritelli

Libertarian presidential nominee Gary Johnson provided little detail in a town hall Wednesday night on how he plans to defeat terrorism.
 
CNN host Anderson Cooper asked the former New Mexico governor in light of a knife attack against six people in London Wednesday, how Johnson would prevent attacks in the U.S.
 
"Maybe we're the kind of candidates that are gonna say, 'look, this stuff is gonna happen,'" Johnson said. "Yes, a president of the United States — we need to be vigilant to potentially prevent these things from happening, but these things are gonna happen."

Former Mass. Gov. Bill Weld, Johnson's running mate, jumped in, telling Cooper he would identify strategies the government has used to fight the Islamic State and al Qaeda that have not worked and implement new ones in their place.

Any votes for Johnson and Stein (an MD who opposes the use of vaccines) are simply protest votes against Trump and Hillary.

Their numbers will shrink to irrelevance by November, as third parties always do.

I guess if Trump has the "Make America Great Again" hats, Johnson will be using these....

I have decided -- write in or vote third party.  My vote probably won't count and whoever I vote for has a snowball's chance in hell of winning.  But I will not be an active party to the destruction of America when either Trump or Hillary is elected.  We are all going to suffer, no matter who wins.   But while others around me have buyer's remorse, my conscience will be clear.  I didn't vote for either candidate.

This guy is such an idiot, it's hard not to believe he's a plant (and I don't necessarily mean of the potted variety).

I think the Libertarian party screwed up more than the GOP

I'm with you on this.  There is a slim possibility that if enough voters do the same, Trump and Hillary could both be denied the majority.

To be honest, I'm not voting for President.. I'm voting down ticket.
