    MAGAts awfully quiet all of a sudden.

    Mace went from “democrats must own this” to “Jesus save this lost individual” on cue.

    Evil people, all of them.

    So I read the “trans ideology” engraving on the ammo was the manufacturer Turan printing “TRN” on it. And US officials started a rumour based on that. Great officials right there. Good training.

    They should be fired, out of a canon, in to the sun.

      There was an engraving on a shell casing referencing a combo in the video game Helldivers 2. It included a series of arrows indicating the controller movements to trigger the combo (in the game, a large explosion). The investigators originally thought arrows indicated trans.

      No, the ammo industry has recognized the quickly emerging Trans Mass Shooter demographic, and have developed a new line of bullets especially designed for the unique requirements of Trans Mass Shooters, called TransAmmo!® (Patent Pending).

    So an entire family of MAGA PedoCons, and at least one of them gets screwed up enough to start shooting up their own side? That’s beautiful.

    I’ve been saying from the beginning that the thing that will finally save us is MAGA’s virtuosic incompetence. Just give them enough rope, and they’ll hang themselves.

    The problem is the damage they’ll do until that happens.

      The current rumor is that he’s a groyper, AKA “MAGA is too liberal” type of guy. Nick Fuentes follower. But at this point, it’s not 100% certain.

        And we all know that is just the bullshit that the cult of maga is using to distance themselves from this event. The old “see it wasn’t us” mentality to avoid hurting their little snowflake feelings so they can keep on being bigots without remorse.

      My two cousins who live in Florida are white supremacists and love desantis like he’s the second coming of Jesus (they’re just OK with trump). They naturally also hate immigrants and want everybody deported. This would be utterly unremarkable for a couple of Floridians except for the fact that they’re half-Thai, the children of my white uncle and the Thai immigrant woman he brought back to the US after serving in Vietnam. My uncle was also anti-immigrant despite having married two immigrants (his second wife was from Spain and also hated immigrants lol). I just do not understand these people.

      Charlie Kirk had beef with the antisemitic section of the far right which hate Israel.

      Not for any good reason like empathy, but for using US tax dollars and using Jews as a scapegoat.

    So Fuentes and Kirk had two separate conservative factions: Groypers and TPUSA, am I getting this right? They have some kind of beef with each other? Messing with rival members? Idk, kinda like gangs, if you will?

    This makes it even more hilariously ironic. He died by his last two words. Who are these writers?

          I actually know someone (big time ammosexual) that hates the NRA because they “don’t defend gun rights enough”, if you can believe that. But yeah, the Confederates constantly are trying to top each other on the “true conservative” thing.

          They are just like Communists - conservatism can never fail, only people can fail conservatism. If there is ever any indication that conservative policies are failures, that’s only evidence you didn’t do conservatism hard enough.

          So if there is lots of infighting about who is practicing the “real” conservatism, I’m not surprised at all, since they argue over who is truly “maga”, too. The term “maga” is even less useful than trying to define what is “real” conservatism, since it’s a nonsense baby word like googoo and gaga and the only real meaning associated with “maga” seems to ultimately boil down to fealty to one failed game show host who has no real principles other than bottomless vanity and greed.

    If this turns out to be true, and really even if it doesn’t, I’m just tired of MAGA on MAGA gang violence in the USA. Can’t these people just settle their differences over a Bible or the blood of baby Jesus?

      I dont like MAGA on MAGA violence and would like it to stop but if it must continue can they at least accept that is what it is? I’m tired of the blame that everyone non-MAGA gets before the MAGA shooter inevitably gets caught.

    The last fact published by the media was that Kirk had died.

    Everything since has just been hot garbage peddled by the hot garbage paddlers cabal.

    Urgh. Anything for an advertisement impression.

    His mother, another MAGA, is a licensed social worker. I feel so sorry for those people. My mother was one at a school for disabled children. Know why she was a good one? Because she is the bloodiest bleeding heart screamingly liberal empathetic person this side of planet earth.

    I believe he was mormon. They are all far right, “not usually” violent, but far right. Hopefully just an outlier, but they are raised to be suspicious of anyone not mormon. That degree of extremism and paranoia could be problematic.

        My wife was born and raised Mormon. When I first learned he was Mormon I looked at her and said blood atonement. Her whole face changed and she said, “better for one man to die, than a whole nation to perish”.

        So apparently this is a big part of Mormonism and how they rationalized their violent actions back in the day.
