    and

    "Viking" Denmark here. Lets be clear about one thing. We have a Social Democrat government in Denmark, with no "MAGA" like right wing parties anywhere near a seat in the Danish or Greenlandic Parliament, but still have achieved absolute law and order, with no illegal immigrants allowed, but with all legal immigrants embraced, if they want to work and contribute to the Danish society, no matter who they are and where they may come from. The Danish police are also all carrying side arms, which is unusual for Scandinavia and the UK.

    Sweden is the absolute most lawless country in Scandinavia, with practically no immigration laws in the past and vastly more gun and gang crimes in their immigrant ghettos in all of Western Europe by capita, but now desperately trying to implement Danish laws.

    Denmark however have the least right wing bigots' in Europe and Scandinavia by far, and are now also the most anti USA and MAGA in Europe by far, while Denmark in the past (before Trump) used to be the most positive supporters of the USA in Europe, also officially celebrating the US independence day :

    I saw Die Brücke. The Swedish cop was an autistic bigot with no social skills while the Danish cop was a corrupt liberal womanizer.

    This i understand everything about those two cultures ;)

    Denmark is ranked the least corrupt country in the world the past 7 years in a row, but the laws and rules are also highly based on the courts and cops showing laid-back empathy and letting all the insignificant pass, while being very harsh on corruption and what really matters, unlike in the USA of today, which seem to be the other way around.

    Technically, that is incorrect. He is the only one now.
    However, there was a guy called Merrick Garland who, had he been bothered to do his job more diligently, could have controlled it.

    OK, I clicked on that link and saw the tweet his mom did on his birthday. Now, I'm not saying he's gay, but I am saying that as a gay man I couldn't help but laugh at the gay subtext in his mom's tweet.

    "Happy 16th birthday to my [redacted]. He's a leather working, gun toting, cowboy loving, brilliant kid! ..."

    Seriously, all she needed was a construction worker and an American Indian and she'd have compared him to the entire Village People band members. But then, Trump does like him some Village People as well.

    The family name is at stake here. She needed to say that.

    BG's article says that was said about one of his brothers. Still funny, though...

    I know some Robinson’s around these here parts who have been getting calls, texts, social messages, emails from friends and acquaintances wondering if they are related.

    If the kid’s name was Tyler Smith…..!!!! I know like 5 personally.

    So it does - I read it too quickly.

    But seriously, the fraternal birth-order effect highlights the more male fetuses a woman carries, the more likely the next one is to be gay (each pregnancy increases the odds 33%). If the younger brother is a brilliant kid who loves him some cowboys and works leather, I think we might have a candidate!

    Buckle up this could be messy. I exchanged some texts with my brother who's been out in Idaho for several years and won't define his politics to me but has mentioned white replacement theory, started talking about religion and family more, and a little bit of the right wing jewish conspiracy nonsense.....

    Anyway, he called me crazy for suggesting that this was anything other than a Leftist. Probably was trolling because he wasn't really adamant, but it made me realize that most of the population doesn't have the internet literacy to follow this. I think the Republicans are in a holding pattern to see what they can get away with planting. I expect people are going to be on different sides of this issue for the immediate future, if not permanently.

    Charlie Kirk's wife's speech felt like a battle cry. Buckle up.

    Republicans are doxing their liberal coworkers to try and get them fired if they post something negative about Kirk's death. The civil war in this country is officially underway even though Kirk's murderer was a conservative, full-blown MAGA.

    Except that there is no civil war going on in this country and we don’t really know that Kirk’s murderer was a conservative, full-blown MAGA, we know his parents were registered Republicans and maybe he was an independent.

    His family has said he loved Trump but didn't think Kirk was "conservative enough". MAGAs are in disbelief that a conservative murdered their Bible thumping, Christian white boy, Charlie Kirk.

    I’m going to need a source/link.

    His family sounds MAGA, according to grandma, but his own politics are less clear other than he’s registered as an “unaffiliated voter” who hasn’t voted for the past couple of years - so his political views are still unknown afaik.

    Where did you hear that he thought Kirk wasn't conservative enough?

    Why is it nearly impossible for Republicans to wrap their Kool-Aid soaked MAGA minds over the fact that this guy was a Republican.

    You're pushing this too hard.

    NY Post is reporting that he was living with a transgender girlfriend. And the person is cooperating with the investigation. Would kind of make the meme inscription on the first bullet make some sense (notices bulge).

    Grandma is in shock and denial, understandably. And this article does nothing to prove your claims that the shooter loved Trump and thought Kirk wasn’t conservative enough. Parents are registered Republicans, shooter has been described as an unaffiliated voter.

    What else you got to substantiate this?

    The MSM are full of boomers who won't ask their great/grandkids about Internet culture so sound like idiots when trying to "analyze" anything about this guy.
