Somehow I think the reaction to this will be totally different than it was when a gunman killed Melissa Hortman and wounded John Hoffman.

I ate 2 burritos last night, so coincidentally I also dropped a huge piece of shit today.
InB4 the FBI finds a random trans person to blame/frame for his death.

An autopsy may finally determine the true size of his face. Praying for the integrity of his facial features postmortem, for science.

They detained this man in connection to the crime, however he has since been released. ~~Which is incredibly peculiar considering he and I were watching the sopranos together at the time of the incident.~~ I can’t remember who my sopranos buddy was at the time.

Sucks for his wife and kid(s) but otherwise nothing of value was lost. He made his silver spewing hate and oppression.

I just want to point out some things since everyone is assuming it was a leftist shooter:
- No one knows who the shooter actually is.
- Most leftist reactions I've seen to Kirk have been to laugh at his stupidity, not get murderously angry at him.
- No political message has appeared yet, like the one Luigi put on the bullets he used. Which if you're a leftist shooter, come on you gotta at least do that homage.
- The shooter killed him with one shot from a distance and got out without being caught.
- I've never met a leftist who knows how to shoot a gun, nevermind one with that level of skill. If it was a leftist, I'm surprised they couldn't catch them by now by simply arresting the one leftist who knows how to shoot at long distance.
In reply to #5. You must not know many leftists then, I don't know a single leftist who doesn't know how to shoot a gun. I know several who do not own them, but that's because they've prioritized their own harm reduction. I know multiple who engage in shooting sports such as long range, three gun, etc.

Looks like the person they detained was released. The shooter got away and is still at large.

Always glad to see a soldier of the ruling class get their comeuppance.
