George P. Bush denounces 'white terrorism' after El Paso shooting
The Hill ^ | 08/03/19 | John Bowden

Texas General Land Office Commissioner George P. Bush issued a statement that called on all Americans to stand against "white terrorism" Saturday after a gunman who espoused white supremacist views in a manifesto killed at least 18 in El Paso.

Bush, son of former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R), said Saturday evening that "white terrorism" was a "real and present threat that we must all denounce and defeat."

"I believe fighting terrorism remains a national priority," Bush said. "And that should include standing firm against white terrorism."

"There have now been multiple attacks from self-declared white terrorists here in the US in the past several months," he added. "This is a real and present threat that we must all denounce and defeat."

His remarks echo those of 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), who just days ago urged politicians to call out white supremacy as a form of "domestic terrorism" during night one of the July primary debates.

"We need to call out white supremacy for what it is: domestic terrorism. And it poses a threat to the United States of America," the senator said on Tuesday.

FBI Director Christopher Wray said at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing earlier this month that white supremacist-related cases now make up the majority of the agency's caseload for domestic terror arrests.

"I will say that a majority of the domestic terrorism cases that we’ve investigated are motivated by some version of what you might call white supremacist violence, but it does include other things as well," he told the committee.

Wouldn’t surprise me if the shooter, being a loser hoping to gain notoriety, was egged on by someone in the DNC, or Antifa, to carry out this mission.
...
Of course it is...but it does not help here in the echo chamber...PDJT needs to get ahead of it.

Every mass shooter has been on psychiatric drugs since Whitman in the tower in Texas in the 1960’s.

So did the shooter only shoot people of “color?

Some might think that ‘the narrative’ was the whole point and was begun way before any actual bullets were fired...

I doubt the gathering of the elites at the google love-in had anything to do with "global warming". It was a final briefing before their big, coordinated anti-Trump push.

A narrative is being created.

Indeed it is.
When the media / RATs all begin crowing about some imagined “white supremacy!” threat, and then... surprise, surprise, surprise, every mass shooting is attributed to that, it’s pretty damn obvious they’re attempting to play people.

And I don’t know who that dipshit Governor in Texas is, but NO ONE with an “R” next to their name should be prattling on about “hate crimes.” If you’re going to believe in THAT crap, go be a democrat.

He’s planning on running for governor of TX and hopes to get Hispanic vote to offset the conservatives who will never vote for a Bush again. Rubio is doing the same in Florida. We’re seeing the further Balkanization of America here with these racial politics. No doubt in my minds.

It seems Gee-o Pee is picking sides. He needs to get pinned down on this and not be allowed to triangulate. Someone should ask him "Mr. Bush, are you white?"

Nwo communist Bush. Worst family in American history. The first Bush president was a Russian agent imo. The country started going way down into a second World nation under the Bush family. All by design.

Agreed.
Just like Charles Manson wanted to start a Civil War with his actions, some entity is causing these 3 mass shootings for a reason.
To justify a shooting, one must feel in danger for their life. Simply being ‘white’ could prove threat enough soon.

What I fear...being white is becoming an offense to society. Every other ethnic group may congregate politically, socially except white people. It then becomes...RACISM.

No white culture, no Southern heritage. Schools/colleges teaching white kids that being white is wrong. Scary stuff.

Twenty years from now, whites will be discriminated against heavily and it'll be justified as somehow being a lesson we must learn to empathize with the ills of the past. I see it coming.

The underground govt is involved. The fight is over us the Trump supporters, changing our govt. This is the communist left who’s been controlling the govt. Fearing they are losing control.

“Don’t forget Hispanic terrorism that comes from across the border.”

As in MS-13 for starters. Yea, I remembered that after posting. Thanks!

9:17 AM, Chuck Todd on Meet the Press speaking with Castro tells us George P. Bush called this 'white terrorism'.

Just as I suspected would happen.
