Charlie Kirk murder

Quote: Gandler

Not irrelevant at all. If he grew up in a far left house where parents and siblings were active in anti-Trump protests we would be hearing endlessly about it.... And, he still lives at home, so it's not like this is a distant memory.

Everything else you said is pure speculation.

John Hinckley Jr grew up in a Republican household. He was also mentally ill years before he became infamous.

Breaking news,

"A rifle recovered in the hunt for Charlie Kirk’s assassin contained ammo engraved with “transgender and anti-fascist ideology,” according to preliminary reports from law enforcement sources."

From CNN:

Quote:

None of the bullet casings recovered alongside the gun officials say was used to kill Charlie Kirk appear to have been engraved with statements or symbols related to transgender people, despite earlier reports that they expressed transgender “ideology.”

Officials who spoke during a news conference earlier today did not address whether the inscriptions included references to trans people, but none of the writings they described appear to have any connection to that community.

The unfired casings did bear statements that included “Hey, fascist! Catch!” and “If you read this, you are gay. LMAO,” Utah Gov. Spencer Cox said.

These are official statements, and not "sources".

Why would an alleged antifa member write "If you read this, you are gay?"

Does not compute...antifa, unlike MAGA eschews gay slurs.

it still seems quite a bit of luck to hit target at 200 yards

Uh, you clearly know nothing about guns if you seriously think that hitting a target 200 yards away is "luck". 🤦‍♂️
I swear, I love hearing people (who know nothing about guns/shooting) act like they know what they're talking about. Stick to watching TP man lol 😂😂

Except maga is not causing the violence. The TDS crowd is. TDS are the ones cutting off communications with maga not the other way around.

as usual early reports proved unreliable

guessing not an actual antifa member, but perhaps influenced by 'social warrior' indoctrinators in social media, and a gun nut family influence, likely right wing at least in second amendment philosophy. Mixing these things together in a deadly cocktail?

Quote: Gandler

the right wing is more violence both nationally and internationally.

right wing basically has a monopoly on violence.

The right wing simply commits more political assassination and politically based homicides than the left

The left is calling for peace and an end to violence, the right is calling for violence and retaliation (without even knowing who is responsible.)

Remember everyone, this is the same guy who believed fake news about the guy who tried to assassinate Trump (and he didn't even have the decency to admit he was wrong). So he can't even be taken seriously anymore. It's just flat out delusional that he believes all of the silly statements that I quoted. He probably thinks Antifa, BLM, etc. are part of "right-wing violence" too. 🤦‍♂️😂😂

Gun nut family? What does that mean?

Everyone is saying the ammo casings are engraved with "transgender ideology," I see zero evidence of this, the closest engraving that even touches an adjacent issue is, "If you read this, you are gay LMAO”. And, this seems more trollish than saying anything actually about homosexuality (like all of his sayings, they all seem to be from online video game silliness.)

I see zero evidence that he has any associating with trans ideologies, the whole thing seems to be a red herring.

And, from looking at him, he certainly does not seem personally active in the trans lifestyle or anything (I guess anything is possible.) But, it just seems like people are using this as an excuse to bash trans and make this into some bizarre conspiracy.

Oh, please.

Things really started going south when the felonious oaf started braying the "stolen election" nonsense.

Those out of power saw that shmoozing him would lead to opportunities so they fell into lock step, totally denying reality.

This denial of reality is now the MAGA hall mark, and has contributed to this country becoming an autocracy, not a democracy.

Trump has no interest in "communicating" with "the TDS crowd:" he just wants to put them against a wall and shoot them.

And he will...unless some disgruntled asshole shoots him first...how ironic it would be if that happens when the oaf attends Kirk's funeral next week.
