I'll come back and eat crow if I'm wrong about
this
. Feel free to @ me when definitive news breaks.
What is "this" ?
I'm not sure what your position on this incident even is or what issue you have with our current understanding of Robinson's motive.
And I say "current understanding" because I am willing to change my position as more information becomes available.
When the event had first occurred I was saying we should wait for more information before trying to guess the 'who' or the 'why'. I also felt that the initial outrage against the "extreme left" was incredibly presumptive and premature. Certainly I understood it was a possibility that someone with liberal leanings might have done it, but to hear Trump, etc tell it they were 100% certain it was left extremism with absolutely no room for doubt.
It wasn't until we actually HAD some information that I said anything other than "let's wait and see". Even then I STILL prefaced it with "some information has pointed to" rather than describing the information as being absolutely confirmed. We have an interview with a grandmother describing the family as MAGA and saying she didn't think they even knew any Democrats and we didn't have that before. We have an image of Tyler dressing up as a Groyper meme for Halloween, we didn't have that before. These are actual indications that Kirk was targeted for not being extreme
enough
and are both counter indications against the idea that he was operating with some kind of liberal or left wing motive..
Of course this information could all change and if it does I'll adapt to it. But I guess I really don't understand what you are accusing me of. I feel I've been more than fair in my approach to learning information before speculating wildly.
