Fox be..crickets.
When I was scrolling through the YouTube app yesterday, I saw a Fox News video in the news section that was something like “How are we defining hate crime?” or something obviously polarizing like that. I didn’t even consider watching it as my doc said to watch my blood pressure, but it made me wonder if the talking heads were going to try to distance it from the idea of hate or racism.


So apparently in his manifesto he calls himself a "leftwing authoritarian," but railed against CRT and claims all the usual white replacement talking points.

How many leftists express these discrepant views? Or is he just trolling everyone?
In my opinion, left-leaning concepts tend to be more social in nature, and the very idea of those programs relies on compassion for others. I don’t see how anyone who commits mass murder on innocents — especially in a location that appears to have been racially profiled — can be considered compassionate at all.

Maybe he means left-wing as in relating to before the parties swapped? :p

Where are this punk's parents and will they be charged?
Not likely because this punk is technically a legal adult. But that doesn't mean the parents shouldn't face public scrutiny for raising a racist white supremacists authoritarian murderer. This type of behavior is taught more then it's a random chance type of thing.

They say this has been planned for a while. He spent a lot of money of stuff. That wasn't done in a vacuum. Somebody knows something.

If only Texas didn't have such draconian gun laws a "good guy with a gun" may have been able to prevent that.

Like I get that the D.A. has to be careful with his words, “He’s innocent until proven guilty.” But getting tired of the media keep prefixing the “alleged” shooter.

I just can't get over it. Where have I heard this before?
A GUY living with his parents.
Yet, another guy living with his parents.
Kyle Rittenhouse lived with his parents, or parent, and I too have a neplew, an nineteen year old nephew, who lives in his mothers basement. Just how many adult children are there living with the parents? To know the answer to that question could provide a clue as to what society is in for. To answer the question, just how many future mass shootings we can expect?

Buffalo Massacre Suspect Mapped Plans on Discord App for Months

The alleged gunman made clear his intentions in a series of posts on the chat app, but no alarm seems to have been raised.

May 16, 2022, 4:26 PM CDT


The accused gunman behind 10 deaths and 3 injuries in Buffalo, New York, over the weekend had spoken explicitly about his plans to commit a terrorist act on the popular chat app Discord since at least last December, according to logs of his posts reviewed by Bloomberg.

The record of his conversations indicate that the alleged shooter, identified by authorities as Payton S. Gendron, 18, had typed out plans to commit a rampage fueled by his White supremacist beliefs for months over a private Discord server. On Dec. 2 he wrote, “I will carry out an attack against the replacers, and will even livestream the attack via discord and twitch,” referring to a popular White supremacist belief that the white race is on the verge of extinction by non-Whites who are controlled and manipulated by Jewish people.

The suspect wrote on Dec. 5 that he initially planned the attack for March 15, three years after the shooting at two mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand, which left dozens dead. He then delayed his attack, carried out at a Tops grocery store, until May 14.

Where else are they supposed to live when home-buying is increasingly not an option for young people, and rentals have gotten more outrageous as well?

An interesting twist .....


Authorities: Hate Against Taiwanese Led to Church Attack

Authorities say a gunman in deadly attack at California church was Chinese immigrant motivated by hate for Taiwanese people.
Associated Press May 16, 2022

Alleged Church Shooter Angry Over Tension Between China, Taiwan: Police

The local sheriff's department said Monday that the suspected shooter had a "grievance...between himself and the Taiwanese community, at large."
....

Rumour is that the shooter is actually born in Taiwan, but is pro China. A retired prof drawing down pension from Taiwan. Couldn't he just move to China if he loves it so much? He filled out country of origin as China in his immigration paperwork, that is what made authorities believe he is from mainland. I guess it is also possible authorities don't know PRC from ROC.

Suspect's last name is Chou, which is a Taiwanese spelling of the last name 周. Mainlander spelling would be Zhou.

I got it from here, no idea about accuracy of the information.

I suppose it's just about conceivable he could be a "left-Nazi". i.e. a Strasserite.

More likely it was just sowing confusion or he's himself confused.

This is a strange footnote/twist. Dispatcher sounds staggeringly unprofessional/petulant.

(Lucky it wasn't a voice menu followed by a 'please hold...we are experiencing an unsually high volume of calls...your call is important to us' message.)

There have been several more around the country in the last few days. Almost pointless to try to keep up with them unless something extreme makes one stand out.

Something at a Texas school. Details sparse, one bit says 'two hospitals report treating victims'.
I saw a blurb that it was a shooting near an elementary school and the suspect then ran into the elementary school and the school is locked down.
