Nice of these MAGA parents to train super competent Antifa super soldiers lol. He probably realized how brainwashed his family was. It’s got to be super crazy and scary for a kid to start critically thinking and realize you’re family is in some kind of brainwashed maga trance

We've already seen the playbook, though. His race only matters if he's not white. His sexuality only matters if it's not heterosexual. His gender only matters if he's trans. His religion only matters if it's not Christian. His politics only matter if he's not Republican. Source: Last summer's attempted assassination attempt against Trump.

But honestly, none of that matters. Most people did not reason themselves into their opinion on this matter (minds were made up before there was any evidence or credible suspect at all), and most of the time you cannot reason people out of an opinion if they did not reason themselves into it. Which sucks. But also, this applies to us all, so hopefully most of us are keeping that in mind.

You, and my brain asking that, every 30 seconds or so.

Bruh.

Okay even assuming christianity is even real, why can't a black person "find jesus"? Pretty sure racism isn't part of scripture...

Oh yea that's right, they are just cosplaying as christians, not real christians.

Ironically, they would look better if they just maintained the "death penalty" stance and omit the "jesus" bullshit. At least then it wouldn't be racist.

If this is the Christianity that keeps winning popularity contests, then maybe it is what Christians really are.

White kid from conservative family shoots conservative personality.

  • conservatives threaten black schools
  • a wave of prominent conservatives talking about WAR WERE DECLARED!!
  • random conservatives walking around on the anniversary of 9/11 making threats against "the Democrats" while looking at innocent people
  • conservative lizards insinuating "the left's reaction" is somehow a nefarious development a couple months after they made fun of a governor being assassinated, which was preceded by conservatives making fun of the attack on Pelosi.

These fucks are violent and unhinged.

Caught because he told someone and they snitched, bummer. Please be mindful that he is still only an alleged killer, and has not yet been put on trial for his charges. Innocent until proven guilty.

apparently his republican dad saw the circulating photos and asked his son to turn himself in. I doubt it had anything to do with the $100k reward

[–] jjjalljs@ttrpg.network 112 points 1 day ago (6 children)

I like to think if I shot a right wing extremist troll, my dad would help me lay low instead of turning me in. But my dad is an aging hippy, not a maga hat worm brain.

[–] MangioneDontMiss@feddit.nl 26 points 1 day ago

never underestimate republican selfishness and hypocrisy.

[–] Bms@lemmy.world 16 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Id tell my son to get the fuck out of the country as soon as possible. Then call me from wherever he ends up.

[–] Cethin@lemmy.zip 8 points 20 hours ago

It'd probably be better for them not to call. If you're trying to hide, don't give them information on where you are.

[–] DeathByBigSad@sh.itjust.works 19 points 1 day ago

If I did that, my brother would snitch on me so quick.

Then our whole family ends up in gitmo (we're not white), but hey, congrats on being a douchbag, big bro. Now we can all suffer together.

Holy shit that's fucked up. Man basically just killed his own child (or encouraged his child to kill himself) in exchange for $100k.

So he's dad basically just sent him to die... I am almost certain they will be looking for death penalty and best case scenario it's a life imprisonment. That seems like a great dad :D

That will probably set them off even more. I can already here the exclamations about how the radical left is brainwashing good, young, Christian men into doing their dirty work.

[–] T156@lemmy.world 5 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Not necessarily. It might just be quietly buried.

[–] frog_brawler@lemmy.world 3 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

There's nothing quiet about chest thumping as the village idiot gets put in the ground.

[–] Railcar8095@lemmy.world 3 points 15 hours ago

After the suspect was a Republican white cis boy they are definitely more quiet to be honest.

Now that he’s been identified as a Christian, I suspect that this will just be a big misunderstanding. A few hail Mary’s, a quick confession, and he’ll be absolved.

[–] panda_abyss@lemmy.ca 127 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I heard he was so trans that he transitioned from female to male by himself in utero.

I think it's interesting to see the news media go back to naming and focusing on shooters. When big school shootings began to happen they talked all about the shooters and what could have led them to do what they did. That accidentally became a great incentive for copycats because many were outcasts wanting similar infamy and their stories to be told.

Then over the years most news media tried to just focus on the victims and communities impacted. Shootings still happen, but how often do you hear the shooter named on the news? Even for major events like the trump assassination attempts they didn't really focus a lot on who the shooters were.

It seems that recent shooters are getting a lot more attention again. All it takes is to assassinate someone and get away just long enough to force them to name your and show your face, messages you left on the scene etc. This runs the risk of starting a whole new copycat trend and I think we're seeing that starting here

[–] Mamdani_Da_Savior@lemmy.world 29 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Personally I would prefer shooters to shoot political opponents of students any day of the week.

Sorry guys hate to say this but Tyler Robinson was with me kayaking in Pennsylvania on Sept. 10 around 2-3pm I have or can come up with evidence to corroborate this.

[–] betterdeadthanreddit@lemmy.world 21 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

I was sure it was you two at the time but didn't want to intrude by paddling over to say hello. It was at that one spot, you know the place, name escapes me but it's where I definitely saw you both.

[–] smeenz@lemmy.nz 16 points 20 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago) (1 children)

Funny thing. I was in a helicopter at that exact place and time looking down at all three of you. From up there, I could see all the way across you know, towards the great uh those things. It was amazing and very memorable, for the exact time and exact day the alibi was required

[–] Saffire@sh.itjust.works 10 points 18 hours ago

I just happened to be operating a government spy satellite watching your helicopter, as one does, while you were watching the three of them! I can confirm that all four of these people were at the specified place at the specified time doing the specified activities.

[–] TriangleSpecialist@lemmy.world 106 points 1 day ago (13 children)

Now watch as the narrative becomes that he turned into a hateful and dangerous leftist by being indoctrinated at university, even though he comes from a good, god loving family.

[–] ragebutt@lemmy.dbzer0.com 55 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Already there on right wing discussion sites

(Thread has 250 pages and is a continuation of the initial 500 page thread)

There is some leftist dissent but it is overwhelmingly right wingers positing the narrative that you propose (plus discord/transgender friends/never trump republicans)

[–] TriangleSpecialist@lemmy.world 59 points 1 day ago (1 children)

They are so fucking predictable, it's actually infuriating. We are losing to this FFS.

[–] LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.dbzer0.com 43 points 1 day ago (2 children)

"He is ANTIFA" tells me so much about the person posting. They think that kid is an immortal being who hasn't aged since he lived in 1930s Germany.

[–] darkdemize@sh.itjust.works 45 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I always find it amusing that they hate Antifa, but can't connect the dots to realize that makes them the fascists.

To be fair, CNN reports:

Robinson at the [family] dinner said “Kirk was full of hate and spreading hate,” according to the relative’s account related by [Utah Governor Spencer] Cox.

Whew...and the assuming Orange Kool-Aid guzzlers can eat shit. Are the low-life MAGAts sacrificing themselves for fake fucking news?
