Where did that 3rd/middle row in the car come from?
Wait, why is a George H. W. Bush figure included in the JFK assassination set?
Remember, there where about 6 future presidents in Dallas that day
“with legos” is the boomer version of “in minecraft”
It's called Culture. Look it up.
I think it's nice when people combine their hobbies.
This also give me some ideas for sets to put up on LEGO Ideas.
Assassination attempt on JFK? The Lego book is telling me he lived?
Lego JFK's hair popped off and he was permanently left with his stud exposed, but he lived.
Damb. Next I'm gunna learn is that Lee Harvey Osbald was a CIA fallguy or something
some attempts succeed
Is that how it works? I always thought that attempt = try but failed. If it succeeds it's an assassination, not an assassination attempt (same as murder v attempted murder) (sincere question)
When you do something in your nth attempt the last one is still included in the number of attempts. The reason for the different rubrics is to differentiate between failed and successful attempts (difference in scale between actually murdering someone or trying and failing to do so).
I see, thanks
yeah, you can speak about "attempting" to do something before knowing the outcome, so i don't think failure is baked in. i can't really speak to the legal concept.
but the book also includes the lincoln assassination. i guess a book of only failed attempts was too thin even for a lego history coffee table book, so they had to pad it out a bit with the successful ones.
Ty for explanation o7
We need the Trump set asap with him raised fist in front of the flag.
If you've had that many attempted assassinations against your leaders then you might just be the bad guys.
(honestly just looking for an excuse to post that clip, it always puts a smile on my face and makes my heart feel a bit lighter)
No excuse needed to post that clip but obviously assassination attempts by foreign powers and assassination attempts by the people are incomparible to the extent that there ought to be different words for each.
Yeah but he's just one leader.

That's my favorite Lego set is what it is.
I wonder what Lego John Hinckley used to take his shot at Lego Ronnie Reagan
Lego Ronald Reagan was shot with one of these
Thank you
I see some illegal connections and modified parts and no grassy knoll gunman

"There have been so many assassination attempts on US presidents, you could write a book about it!"
The book in question:
wait until you hear about the musical
