If a MAGA shoots someone, they are mentally ill.

I believe MAGA said the same about Muslim terrorists, too.

Only white men who lean conservative can have mental illness. Other people who murder people are just evil.

Wow.


It is amazing how quickly the pivot is happening. It's been what, two hours?

Do we want to talk who commits the most murders in this country per capita now?

Sure, let’s have that discussion! You first.

That’s the exact whataboutism that Kirk was pushing when he was shot.

I called it here: https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/2370/1291384.page#30770208



According to the bullet scribbling, he was Antifa.


And according to a slew of social media evidence, he was right wing. But you tell yourself whatever need to feel better.


Doesn’t matter what the social media evidence is. People can appear one thing and believe another. The fact that he wrote those slogans on the bullets he loaded to kill Kirk speaks more about his beliefs and intentions.

But you can go ahead and ignore evidence to fit your narrative. Nobody is going to stop you.


His use of the word 'gay' in a derogatory way is limited to right wing.


You don’t think a 22 year old male would use sarcasm and slang, do you? Impossible!


The same goes for the inscriptions MAGA are trying to use to "prove" he was a lefty. round and round we go.

Look at his whole life, family, background. this is right-wing gun nut stuff.


Except that he had become radicalized with left wing ideology in recent years. Yes, he may have been brought up as a Republican and/or conservative, but had strayed far from that.

How horrifying for his parents. Can you imagine his father having to turn in his own son?


It is horrible. And, it demonstrates what having a moral compass is and what real courage looks like.

If only a more GOP politician would do the same.

Right wing X has cooled off a lot this morning. I generally have a pretty blase attitude to threats of violence, but even I was alarmed by the tone of what was being posted yesterday.

LOL! That's a case study in how fast media cycles move. From one sentence to the next.


It's like Charlie has been tossed aside like a piece of garbage now that his death is no longer useful to serve an agenda.

It’s a Headstamps. Everyone knows it. Even maga.


I think you need to read updated news articles. That was yesterday’s news. Maybe read the transcript or watch the press conference from earlier.


lol what you going to shoot me? It’s a Headstamps. Provide some evidence that is not maybe up internet stuff. Like you heard it from a bot on twitter with 5 followers.


I linked the press conference.


Stop gaslighting and actually get your facts straight before you post.

Also, why would you say that? I never said anything to indicate I was violent.

Whether you liked Charlie Kirk or not, hopefully we can agree that he didn’t deserve to murdered in broad daylight, especially in front of his wife and two young children. That’s it. Who cares about politics. This is right and wrong. There have been Democrat, Republican, and mentally ill shooters in these past event years. All messed up and wrong, regardless of their motive. He was a father na husband who didn’t deserve to be murdered.


The GOP politicians, including the POTUS, came out IMMEDIATELY, before the shooter was found, and made inflammatory statements about how this was the fault of the "radical left" and kept doubling down on "retribution" against liberals/democrats/the left and other threats.

Read that again. In the wake of a public murder, the President of the United States of American took this as an opportunity to blame an entire political party and threaten his political opponents (whom he likes to call enemies). No attempt to calm the nation, no attempt to come together, no attempt to condemn all political violence. No. He blamed the opposition party for a murder. He said he was going to take them all down. And then members of Congress echoed this. Nancy Mace laid this at the feet of all Democrats, with no qualifiers.

This is why people are discussing this. The GOP went WAY out of line, using the murder of a human being to pour gas on the fire of division, to call for harm to their political opponents. They had the audacity to call the Democrats for stoking violence as they themselves called for violence. It was irresponsible and horrific. And, frankly, right in line with the way they have been operating for years now.

Every single one of them should be online apologizing but they never will. They have no decency and no integrity. And they will twist any little thing to justify their original lies.

Update: Civil War cancelled due to the shooter being demographically uncooperative.

This thread is about who made a political statement by killing Charlie Kirk.


No I think PP implied that white men are disproportionately involved in committing murder in this country.

I looked up the per capita murder stats and they say otherwise. I was wondering if PP wanted to have an actual discussion about per capita murder stats and cite his / her data sources. PP should enlighten us.


DP. White men are disproportionately more likely to commit MASS murder, school shootings, or high-publicity assassination type murders.
