No mention of the Minnesota state legislators that were shot.

Don't let the language slip on that one. The MN legislators was not "a shooting," but it was a "politically motivated assassination" and 100% was terrorism on top of it.

SpawnShadow posted...
So, what are the odds that he was targeted by his own side specifically to have an excuse to start some shit and/or distract the public from the Trump/Epstein connection?

They already used their Reichstag card on the Big Balls incident. It's unlikely they would attempt to repeat the same public relations trick in the wake of an attack.

DUKLegend posted...
It's this sort of action that typically lends itself to fascism though.

We're already in fascism. American soldiers have been deployed on American soil. This attack won't lead us to fascism.

This shooting might have been caused by the fascism, but that's one of a thousand possibilities until we know more about the shooter and their agenda. This could have been personal for all the information we have right now.

Oh I'm not saying it should be celebrated. What I mean is that it's obvious that people were going to do that, because it was a given.

But putting that aside, people are calling out those celebrating as hateful people, which I get that. But it's like, do they not really see the irony here? I just don't get people. Sorry, that just bugs me for some reason.

Because "It's ok when I/we do it!" Is a tenet of conservatism.

Meaning he's almost certainly suffered brain damage.
If all that blood that was meant to carry oxygen to his brain instead spilled out into the air, and this kept going on for minutes?

I checked in on yahoo's comments section and MAGA's are really getting angry at the "thoughts and prayers" comments.

Apparently, that is ok for the hundreds of school shootings but offensive today....
They know what "thoughts and prayers" really means and they know the people saying it today know too. I understand why they're angry at having it thrown back in their faces at this sensitive time but I also have absolutely no sympathy for them.

It's crazy what bullets can do.

Same here. Blood was coming out his neck. Surprised he hasnt been confirmed dead yet. Maybe they have to tell the family. Unless he survived it.

Charlie Kirk as far as I know didn't signoff on mass deaths like a healthcare CEO was admitted to have done.
Yes he wasn't a great person but he didn't do that
I could probably say he was indirectly responsible for some hate crimes due to the shit he was spewing from his mouth, but either way, this is getting off-track.

They got Charlie Kirk.

In Utah.

While he was speaking about "black on black violence"

An old white guy did it.

With a gun.

Shooting is horrible and the shooter should face justice, but that doesn't mean I'm going to pretend that Kirk isn't a horrible person.

Elaborate how it's different. Looks to me like the same people not liking people being shot in this topic were the same ones in those topics.
Ok maybe so. I dont keep track of names. Just feels like the general reaction is weird considering the number of Luigi jokes that have popped up every time someone on the right does something shitty. Didnt mean to set everyone off by pointing it out.

this is not the way is not about this thread but what StarFighters said people actively celebrating

it is not the way because
  1. we are against gun violence that is the point of being for gun control
  2. the people in charge right now are nuts and will send the national guard and take people away for advocating "terrorism"


but if you feel safe doing it go ahead
