    You don’t know this . Two of the bullets had anti-fascist messages which isn’t right wing . The other two were internet memes related if I saw correctly . One of which might might be connected to Nick Fuentes (the reference about if you read this , you’re gay )

    There were no George Floyds
    No Trayvon Martins
    No Eric Garners illegally selling caffeinated drinks outside the 7-11

    We don't have such things in Utah & we never will!

    No because they were saying it could be a non-trans but a defender of trans causes . They were going by some report that the bullet had some reference to it . Probably a fake early report to instigate .

    His family is conservative, however, Robinson is a registered voter in Utah, but does not have a party affiliation. So technically he's undefined in terms of party affiliate.

    So, this guy's not a "trained assassin," he's not former military. He used a Mauser 98 .30-06, which is a decent hunting rifle.

    I guess out of all of that, I got the caliber wrong; I'd been thinking it was a .308.


    And yeah, the disingenuous arguments from the right, and their veneration of him is annoying. I've heard right wing clowns compare Kirk to Martin Luther King, or to proclaim that a non-serving freedom freeloader "fought for his country," and more.

    Flying the flag at half-mast is a bit rich, for an a$$hole who called veterans "losers."


    And through all of this, the school shooting in Colorado got buried...

    Nope I really don’t have to . Of all the rules broken around here , this would be the least of the problematic ones . My unlinked posts are more informative than silly lazy tweet posts

    I suppose so.

    Between the outright lies and the distortion of language from that side, its really a disservice to public discourse.


    (I REALLY can't wait for the fvkcing international break to be over.)

    It’s not a rule. He’s just being petulant. Information is breaking up his hilarious flow of song parodies making light of a murder.

    We have been discussing resistance to fascism in other threads. I know, I promised to give my insight, but I've been busy, I want to share my thoughts when I have more time. But here's is my take on this assasination:

    I don't agree with sniper assasinations, but when people talk about resisting fascism, what are they talking about? As I see it, the United States is at war, it is a real social war and unfortunately like in any war there will be real life casualties.

    Mr. Kirk chose a side in the war, the side that many of us associate with fascism, and he used his freedom of speech to publicly promote many controversial positions, and in doing so he pissed off a lot of people who are against such things.

    It appears that one of those people took it too far, and murdered him, but that's what's going to happen in a real war. Get used to it, because I fear it's going to happen more and more, if the country continues going in this direction.

    And as I told you guys, I feel like I've seen this movie before. I grew up in a very polarized society, one in which the democratic institutions were completely discredited, and I saw things play out, murders, bombings, illegal arrests, coups, the destruction of democracy, and sadly that's the direction in which I see us going here.

    People who do nothing but make jokes about this are sociopaths.

    That would have been a great way to address Kirk yesterday but for Tyler Robinson:

    First Question: How many trans people have committed mass shootings?
    First Answer: Evasive BS
    Second Question: How many mass shootings have there been in the past X decades?
    Second Answer: Evasive BS with racist overtones.
    Third Question: How many mass shooters are Ammosexuals
    Third Answer: Evasive BS regarding second amendment rights for all, and first amendment rights for ammosexuals.

    Alas, Tyler ruined the give and take for all of us.
