USA Politics

The fact that we’ve had pages and pages of triggered discourse over the assassination of a non-elected Conservative citizen and not one single centrist/conservative on here had literally anything to say about the assassination of a sitting Democratic representative Melissa Hortman (and her husband) says it all.

You’ve said nothing about the countless times peaceful Ukrainians were killed by russian attacks—so your argument is, at the very least, pathetic.
And as for Melissa Hortman—it's infuriating what happened to her. Are you happy now, schmuck?

To those who try to shame us for being indifferent to an evil person dying, I've noticed that none of you ever actually share any clips of him. You say that he was only interested in debate, that he was killed for his "opinions". Well, skip to the 17 minute mark to see a collection of his "opinions":

 
Who killed this guy? Not sure you can know this until someone has been arrested and their motives outlined.
Considering that the FBI was gutted by Trump and the remnants are being run by a moronic magat stooge I think the chances of the shooter being caught are diminishing by the hour.

Which suits them perfectly since they can continue blaming "the left" for as long as possible.

Every act of gun violence has something to do with arms control. It’s been two days and you’re already saying, “yeah, but not THESE guns.”

I'm also for gun control and yes you are probably right, but not that the guy took what he deserved because this particular assassination has nothing to do with that as some people here paint it to be =he took what he was searching for type of thing.

Knicker. They killed the guy in front of his family man. Whatever his views are, he was debating. Which is as democratic and civilised as anything. How anybody can cheer for such a death, it sickens me.
 
On this, I must say as a non-American this event did not have the same wall-to-wall media coverage as the Charlie Kirk assassination and I was not aware that it had occurred.
This is partially my point. It barely made a blip. A sitting politician was murdered. Her husband was murdered. But she was on the “wrong side” and the supposedly left-wing media I keep hearing about barely ran a headline. But a private citizen with millions of social media followers on the “right team” gets days of national coverage, flags at half mast, and a medal of freedom. It’s sickening.

I’m not posting in that thread, am I? And for the record: Putin is a war criminal and a piece of utter shit.

I haven’t cheered and I have said that such a matter of execution is despicable. It’s beyond awful that his family had to witness that and it’s disgusting that it happened on a school campus.

I can still think he was a garbage human being. I can feel bad about the way he died without trying to force myself to find the good in someone who spread hate everywhere he went.
 
Common sense man. Almost certainly this was a hit.

They have a guy in custody now, Tyler Robinson, 22 from Utah. Doesn't look much different on the surface now to the guy who shot Trump, or any of the countless other school shootings. Just a troubled kid with access to weapons that he shouldn't have.

EDIT: this guy can barely buy a beer but is able to buy the weapons and be trained to shoot like that

A 30-06 bolt action (if that's indeed the weapon) is a rather standard hunting rifle. Plenty of hunting areas out in Utah, so I imagine they're rather commonplace. Now if this were a straight up AR-15 assault rifle that was recovered, yes, that's a problem.

Note of semi-relevance, I suppose - My family's more crossbow hunters and I wouldn't necessarily say I'm pro-hunting, but I understand the ecological necessity of it.

Looks like his father turned him into the police.

A hit implies murder for hire or done professionally.

Yes, it's what I thought.
 
You didn't think was conspiracy when an ex-president and then presumptive nominee for the Republican ticket was shot, but a Republican-aligned talking head gets shot and there is one?

In Butler the killer was killed on the spot, whereas in this case it looked as if he would vanish. In Butler's case, the way it happened to have conspiracy it would meant US government was involved which makes it more difficult at least for me to believe.
 
If you’re seriously considering the idea that someone paid to have Charlie Kirk shot on Wednesday, you should also pay attention to when Senate Republicans voted not to release The Epstein Files.

Trump had a Secret Service detail whereas Kirk did not. Just because the Butler shooter was immediately killed doesn't mean there wouldn't have been conspiracy.

Also, what?

Epstein Files case stinks no doubt.
I dislike a big portion of Trump's presidency, so don't expect me to support blindly everything he or Republicans do. Having said that, I still pick him over Biden, worlds apart.
