You’re not responsible but the brainwashing from the msm & social media is responsible. Fascist, nazi, gestapo, Hitler , white supremacist etc. Rhetoric like this damages people. Both sides do it but the MSM amplifies these words

You have a point for sure. But on the other hand suppose I really do believe that some of the words you used apply? I’ve always thought Fascist, Nazi, Hitler, is over the top, but I honestly do think that white supremacy does apply to parts of the MAGA movement, and that Tom Homan’s ICE behave like the Gestapo. You’re free to disagree but that’s what I think. Should I hide those thoughts because some idiot nutcase might run with them? Sorry but I’m not going to do that. And neither I nor the MSM are responsible for that nutcase.

Dem Assassin Is Armed Guard Boss With Anti-Abortion Hit-List

The man suspected of killing a top Minnesota state lawmaker has been identified as Vance Luther Boelter, law enforcement sources told the Associated Press.

The suspect, presumed to be Boelter, left behind a target list with more than 70 names, including top Minnesota Democrats like Walz, Rep. Ilhan Omar, and abortion providers and advocates, according to CNN and ABC News.

[...]

The target list, whose existence was confirmed by law enforcement earlier on Saturday, contained the names of many top Minnesota Democrats, including Walz, Rep. Ilhan Omar, Sen. Tina Smith, and Attorney General Keith Ellison, law enforcement sources told ABC.

The item was recovered from the suspect’s car after he fled a shootout with police, Brooklyn Park police chief Mark Bruley said during a press conference.

Bruley said that the target list featured the names of “many lawmakers and other officials,” including the two who were shot, but did not go into further specifics.

 

So if this is correct, the dude is an anti-abortion nutcase. But you know what? There are millions of Americans who are pro-life and believe that abortion is murder. (I don’t agree). These people are NOT responsible for this nutcase.

Guy is shaping up to be an interesting amalgam.  Seems there is a bit of something there for each side of the politcal spectrum to glom on to.  Who knows what the next developments will be before this story is written in ink.

I’d have to agree with some of @nobody’s comments from after the Trump shooting.  If a politician is attacked, the first logical theory is going to be that it was someone from the opposing political party.  Of course that may not be the case, as the current evidence in that shooting shows.

But for some reason many righties think every violent criminal is a liberal, no matter the circumstances.

Well, considering like the last 10 shootings were done by liberal trannies, it's perfectly apt to assume that.

Very honorable of you. There is no enjoyment to be had for you doing it, though. Ultimately it's shameful that the political persuasion of these monsters is one of the first things that gets discussed. Also that it happened at all.

Exactly. It is very easy to jump to the wrong conclusion in situations like this (2+2 sometimes = 5). That was why earlier in the thread I just reported what had been confirmed and tried to avoid attribution any blame.  

And we still don't know that much as far as the shooter's motives are concerned. Yes, he was appointed by Walz but the board he was appointed to was bipartisan. Yes, he had "No Kings" flyers in his car but we don't know why he did. His assassination target list was all prominent Democrats but was it for party affiliation or their anti-Abortion position? Many questions still to be answered.

I guess Tim Walz wasn't kidding when he said he was friends with shooters.

JFC political rhetoric is out of control . Imagine voting to cut healthcare to illegals triggers this

REPORT: Shortly before Minnesota Rep. Melissa Hortman was shot and k*lled, she broke down in tears in front of cameras after siding with Republicans.

Hortman was the lone Democrat who voted to cut health care access for adult illegal immigrants.

"I did what leaders do... I stepped up and I got the job done for the people of Minnesota."

Hortman and her husband were k*lled shortly after this video was taken in their home. Police believe it was politically motivated.

 

This is what happens when you become brainwashed by right wing media 

[Gepetto 1,353]

Officers briefly confronted the gunman at Hortman's home, but he slipped away.

This is the Police Force in the State of Minnesota, where George Floyd died and the aftermath of that.

Doesn't matter.  Victims were white and shooter was white.  

May not even make it on the nightly news tonight, much less for the next 3 years with riots, looting and arson going on.
