That is definitely apart of it but not all of it. People have been this way forever. I think there are a lot more factors that bring it out of us now though.

That had to be extremely hard to turn him in. Good for him though.

I look forward to learning more about him. I want to know if he was always that way or if he became that way.

I want to know why people become this way though. What could possibly make a person with, what looks to be a normal childhood, want to shoot another person just because of their beliefs? Was he always that way or was there something that flipped that switch inside him. This is the kind of stuff that fascinates me. It goes back to the evil/mentally ill conversation.

I just read this on X. Not sure how factual it is. FBI confirmed the bullet casings of Tyler Robinson had the words “Hey Fascist, catch this”. Which party called Christian Charlie Kirk “fascist.” Family admits Robinson became radicalized after going to college, and expressed hate against Kirk.

Do we actually know that much about him yet? I have no idea what his beliefs were. My first reaction would agree with you but that's just judging a book by it's cover. There has to be a lot more to this.

Absolutely. I've been called a liberal and MAGA before. That tells me I'm in the right place. I don't want to be involved with either extreme.

I learned more and more that liberals are not what they claim they are. Over the last few years I've seem them move further and further to the left. When I first registered to vote as an 18 year old I did so as a Democrat because that's what my parents were and that's who I felt I best fit with. They have changed drastically. They have become much more extreme. I consider myself in the middle but find myself agreeing more and more with conservatives. I can no longer support much of what the left stands for.

Looks like it's getting a lot of good reviews. I look forward to watching it.

I still believe he was hit. It doesn't make much sense to me why it would all be faked and have an innocent bystander killed. It's just that I get why people question it.

I know this may come off as a little conspiracy theory like but I can't help but think about it. I watched the video of Kirk being shot and to me it looked like what I would expect it to look like. You can see his shirt moved and all kinds of stuff going on from the impact of the shot. I can't help but think about when Trump was shot in the ear. There was almost nothing from the bullet passing by. He doesn't even have a mark on his ear now. I'm not saying it was faked but it certainly makes me question it. Strange things happen.

This is going to be interesting. Seems like a pretty normal kid that came from a good family. Not sure why would make him do something like this. I'm glad they were able to bring him in alive so we can learn more.

Not insane but clearly mentally ill.

Seeing reports of students evacuating from UMASS this afternoon due to a shooting. Not sure on all the details yet.

Looks like it was a false report.

I would consider this a mental illness.

That looks very similar to mine.

People were instantly breaking down that video. The conspiracy theories have run rampant.

It's 100% a bolt action. I'll try to look and see what model it is when I get home.

I'm not a big fan of it but it depends on the circumstances. If what that employee said could hurt my business, then I'm firing them.

I've been seeing some of those people getting fired from their jobs because of those comments as well. I just saw this one: @scott_fowler BREAKING: The Carolina Panthers have fired Charlie Rock, of the team's communications department, for an insensitive post regarding the murder of Charlie Kirk, a source familiar with the organization's decision tells me. Story to come.

Hate. Where does hate come from? Usually from some sort of terrible experience or trauma. Terrible experiences or trauma usually cause mental health issues. To me, evil and mental health go together.

That's a pretty tough discussion. I've always thought that it's the mental illness that makes a person evil. I'm not sure I've really separated the two.

It's been a very long time since I've shot it. I think it ejects it.

It's a single shot, bolt action .410 shotgun. Was my first gun ever and I still have it. Use to squirrel and rabbit hunt with it. Very cool gun.
