According to AP, there were messages engraved on the casings in the Kirk shooting. They read:

  • One read, “hey fascist! catch!” with an up arrow symbol, right arrow symbol, and three down arrow symbols. 
  • Another one read: “oh bella ciao bella ciao bella ciao ciao ciao,” Cox said. 
  • The third fired casing read: “if you read this you are gay lmao.”

My first thought is. Whoever killed Kirk was clearly inspired by Luigi. The writing on the casings just like Luigi did. The timing. It just makes sense.

Does this mean Luigi’s propaganda of the deed was successful? I think so. In any case, I wonder if this means there is more to come.

Maybe left intentionally as an homage to Luigi?

Luigi's case had much more serious irony(though I hate to use the word), wouldn't you agree? Maybe more info will be released to spotlight the missing seriousness or political influences tho

I’m not sure what you mean here. What made it more ironic?

The delay, deny, depose being a direct quote from the insurance industry as a whole thus the more serious irony. These casings from kirk shooter seem to be ironic for sure, but the irony with the kirk shooter is mostly internet culture/meme-based with the current data I've seen anyway
