I don't think that it's been confirmed that it's him.

Those deploreables needed killin’, right’, Jeff?
Do you have a source for that?
And when? Some people who are attracted to extremist ideologies run through several before settling on one they really like.
He wasn’t against Islamonazism. He just didn’t want them in his country.
He studied al Qaeda's tactics. He imitated them. He even admired them in a way. But so far as I know he saw them as the other side.
He was like Nazis who found things to admire in the commitment and fanaticism of Communists (or Communists who admired the drive and courage of Nazis). I get that some people are going to say that he was a leftist (and that the Nazis were too), but the guy who writes pages and pages attacking "cultural Marxism" and kills scores of young socialists saying "Today you will die, Marxists!" doesn't really count as a leftist either.
It was in his manifesto
So lazy and stupid. Like country music = Trump voter? Life doesn’t work that neatly. I’m a Trump supporter but would likely never go to a country music festival or event.
Yes, and I said this before, I know many Canadians that love country music. And believe me, they are NOT Trump supporters. Maybe at one time you could make this generalization but country music has been so mainstreamed now.
Isn’t there a photo of him at a rally protesting Trump?
Reminds me slightly of the Nazi approach. You have a slight trickle of Jewish blood in your bloodlines, so you must be one of those evil conniving Jews.
Breivik was a neo-Nazi, which is fundamentally Leftist. This confuses a lot of people because Nazism is so different from the Leftists we typically encounter, but Nazis view the government as a positive force and believe in enforcing equality (if you’re the correct race); both of these are Leftist traits.
Conservatism also believes in adherence to the law (except for extraordinary circumstances, such as during the American Revolution), while mass murderers fundamentally do not.
Mass murder (when done to people not known personally, and planned out) is fundamentally done by Leftists. I will concede that a guy attacking people while on bath salts may not be thinking of Leftist political ideals at the moment, but it was Leftist thoughts which brought him to that state.
Republicans, Christians and Conservatives need to go to war against CNN.
This statement is beyond the pale. Folks died and their politicizing it.
Un-freakin’ real!
Jeff Zeleny shows what he'd like to do to Trump voters
CNN probably is indirectly (or directly) responsible for Hodgkinson’s massacre on the Baseball field, as well as this one.
They’ve been plying their hate for conservatives and Trump for over 2 years now. Finally their bots are moving the way they want them to apparently.
A “gay” bully, like Zeleny and so many in his “profession” are, deserve the epithet. If you don’t like it, tough.
Definitely agree with you on CNN and the rest of the media being responsible for the Hodgkinson incident. There’s likely 2 or more degrees of separation from the media and Paddock, but they are partially responsible for this shooting as well.
And that’s not even getting in to Antifa and how the media has deliberately tried to ally with them. (Antifa thanked them by beating up MSM journalists, fortunately, and that cost Antifa a good deal of its MSM support.)
We can do our parts to stop terrorist attacks by reporting anyone we personally know who expresses liberal opinions to our local police and the FBI. In the meantime, make sure make sure you have a plan to deal with Leftists you encounter which both keeps you and your group safe, and keeps you legally in the clear.
Nazis fit in with one variety of the European right wing, which historically did believe in powerful government and in enforcing inequality (between classes or races or religions or ethnic groups).
Some liberals will tell you that the left was always peaceful and tolerant and kindly. It wasn't. But neither was the right, especially in 20th century Europe.
Conservatism also believes in adherence to the law (except for extraordinary circumstances, such as during the American Revolution), while mass murderers fundamentally do not.
People who turn to political violence usually do believe that we are living in extraordinary circumstances that justifies taking up the gun or bomb. They aren't conservative. But they may be right-wing. They usually aren't liberal either, though they may be left-wing.
Mass murder (when done to people not known personally, and planned out) is fundamentally done by Leftists. I will concede that a guy attacking people while on bath salts may not be thinking of Leftist political ideals at the moment, but it was Leftist thoughts which brought him to that state.
Sane, healthy, responsible people don't shoot up people they don't know. You can take pride in being sane and healthy and responsible I guess, but putting all good on your own side and all evil on the other side of the political spectrum looks like special pleading.
I don't believe that every mass murderer who happens to be a white guy is right wing or that Nazis or racists are conservatives, but I also recognize that not every awful thing people do can be blamed on leftists.
Maybe calling Breivik "right-wing" is wrong or inaccurate, but calling who somebody who ranted against "cultural Marxism" and political correctness a leftist doesn't get us closer to what he was.
So apparently CNN goes wink, wink, crocodile tears. I try to give the benefit of the doubt that the reporter is just ignorantly spouting until the next commercial.
“We can do our parts to stop terrorist attacks by reporting anyone we personally know who expresses liberal opinions to our local police and the FBI. In the meantime, make sure make sure you have a plan to deal with Leftists you encounter which both keeps you and your group safe, and keeps you legally in the clear.”
Excellent advice FRiend!
Worth repeating!
Yes, country music fans are likely to be Trump fans, Christians, and white. The perfect targets for a muslim convert!
