rightoids: “leftist people, inmigrants and brown people are promoting violence by illegal means!!”
shooter was white
shooter was american citizen
shooter was conservative
shooter used a legal weapon
Idk but my running theory is that he didn’t like him very much
Many such cases.
tries to kill trump, refused to leave explanations
joking aside, it’s better that they try this instead of shooting schools
i fully agree
The most shocking thing is the lack of any social media/online accounts.
They were apparently active on Discord but the FBI hadn’t gotten/released any messages. Which is another reminder to not use Discord.
Discord is super compromised
Discord collaborates a lot with USA government’s spying agencies.
Almost any US-based popular service collaborates too.
they’re all required to once they receive the super secret national security letter
i mean, being the most used spyware in the world makes you basically be the favorite of the men in black everywhere
idk, I think the most shocking thing was that he tried to shoot Donald Trump
nah, the shocking thing is that more people havent tried
Not only that but as a registered republican out of all people! Scummy chuds are going crazy about this saying “he was not a real republican”. Love seeing how the fash are infighting after this.
In all seriousness, I don’t think just because you’re registered republican at the age of 20, that its some sort of massive ideological commitment. At that age, a lot of the time people just register for whatever most of their family is registered as.
My theory is that he wanted to kill that cop and Trump was just in the way.
Intrusive thoughts.
Dems spend 8 years doing nothing but screeching about how singularly evil this one individual is to the exclusion of all other messaging
Dems nominate the only person in the world loathed enough to lose to this bozo twice by completely dismantling the democratic process, the second time by nominating someone who 70% of voters have been saying is too fucking old for the last 12 months
Aforementioned fossil who is badly losing to Trump refuses to step aside because he’s the same megalomaniacal dickhead he has been all his life, removing all democratic means of preventing the ascent of the aforementioned singularly evil individual
Truly we will never understand the motive
Hillary is also loathed tbh. Second choice gone.
Downvoters fail to explain as always
I don’t see down votes on hexbear dot net 😎
So I can have bad takes with impunity
Actually, I think I get where the downvoters are coming from. If it were a regular lib, sure, but we’ve seen the gulag level takes this person had. Why would such a conservative person believe the Dems in just this case?
The score is +39/-4 but yeah I know y’all can’t see them
Shooter was real shit aim.
Trump was insanely lucky actually
Yeah except if you had any sort of training you’d be aiming for center mass. Lot more meat instead went for the xXx420NoScopexXx.
He was probably wearing bulletproof stuff
Pretty sure he had a vest, which is standard practice.
M855A1 can be found in the secondary market. Ain’t cheap, but he isn’t wearing plate.
The goal posts are moving.
I mean, if you’re going through the hastle, maybe youtube some videos on marksmanship or just go about your life.
To sum up, you claimed that he was a bad shooter. Then when you were presented with evidence of being wrong proceeded to move goal posts instead of admitting it. 🤡
Did he kill himself? Or was he killed by the cops?
From what I’ve heard on Lemmy, he was killed by the Secret Service after he made his shot.
Secret service got him, he was only at 100 yards
Wasn’t he a rank amateur? I really hoped they would try to get him alive.
He was shooting into a crowd of people, at least one person was killed. Shooting back at him was pretty much the only option
In the same breath, libs will thank the Secret Service for immediately killing the shooter and also say “violence is never an acceptable response.”
That’s probably the most succinct way to state the contradiction. You’re OK with taking out an active shooter, but not with taking out someone who (as libs love to tell you) is about to hurt or kill people all over the world?
they literally did say that in the interviews 10 minutes after it happened
There’s no way he just didn’t exist before today but that seems to be the result of all the searches for his information. I’m seeing theories that he was a government plant, but I doubt the CIA/FBI would botch an operation like this. What I do believe is that the truth is being obfuscated.
