It's always in lefty states where this stuff happens. I don't really identify with either political side btw, I just think it's funny that no one shoots up North Carolina. I bet people know that they'll get turned into Swiss cheese if they try to unload a mag over here

So Trump lied to us when he said this was a targeted attack on Christian’s?
Mormons are just as Christian as any other Protestant sect.
It was quite obviously a targeted attack on Christians. This idiot apparently had a problem with Mormons.
Its not a political attack its a crazy moron committing horrifically stupid violence.
You are deluded if you think Mormons are Christians.

Have you thought wrote:
Retribution because a member of the Mormon church killed Charlie Kirk?
Tyler Robinson is about as Mormon as Kirk was muslim.
don't dissemble. Robinson grew up very mormon in a very mormon family in a very mormon city in a very mormon state.
That's probably what this michigan guy was reacting too. But we are just guessing at this point.
Could just be another deeply reddit-wrecked man.

Why are so paranoid buddy? Inbreeding? You can be and say anything you wanton the net.
The left has gotten so bad, so violent, so vicious that even John Fetterman sees it. Of course lefties will chime in and bring up his stroke. The same stroke they claim didn’t affect his judgment when they wanted him, an admitted hard core leftist, elected. 😂
Look at figure 3 of the actual study (linked) that shows that right-wing terror attacks have far surpassed left-wing terror attacks every single year, for the last 30 years. One anomalous six-month period isn't meaningful.

The data is clear that the lion share of mass shootings have been perpetrated by people who have right wing political view. But even then, that really isn't a meaningful statistic. Political view point is most relevant if there is the potential for the shootings to be part of a political movement. That has happened with the Brevik mass shooting spawning a number of similar attacks, including Dillon Roof shooting at the black church in SC and the Texas Walmart shooting. These shooters were carrying out mass shootings as part of a white supremacist movement to try to spark a race war. On the left, there really hasn't been any real organized political violence sine the days of the Weather Underground. A few recent shooting have been carried out by trans or queer shooters. But other than the Charlie Kirk assassination, there has been only some vague online chatter about some sort of militant trans/queer movement. But no real connection between the shootings and that sort of online stuff.
What we are really seeing with mass shootings in the US is nothing more than a continuation and amplification of what used to be called "going postal". Someone with various degrees of mental health issues goes over the edge and lashes out with a mass shooting that ends in either suicide or suicide by cop. The recent Michigan and NC shooters were both veterans who had histories of suffering from PSTD. The Michigan shooter was reported to believe that the LDS followers were the antichrist. The motivation for the shooting is almost irrelevant as it is often just a scapegoat for whatever psychosis is driving them over the edge.
That then leads to the inescapable issue of why does this happen in the US all the time, but almost never happens in any other country (save an except for countries that have gang warfare, sectarian violence, etc.). This year, the EU had three mass shootings. Three. In the US, we are up to about 325+ with 300+ dead and over 1,300 wounded.
What is are the big differences between the US and the EU and most other countries? First and foremost, guns are freely available to anyone and everyone in the US. And with the exception of fully automatic machine guns (but bump stocks can get you similar firing), you can get any kind of firearm with large capacity clips. Anyone in the US can easily equip themselves to be a killing machine.
And in the US, mental health care is largely a privilege. In countries with universal health insurance and strong employee benefits, mental health care is far easier to access and benefit programs protect people who cannot work due to mental health issues. In the US, most people do not have access to mental health care and many will even go as far as avoiding seeking help for fear that it may impact their ability to work or factor into custody fights, etc.
It is so absurd to label any racist attack as "right wing".
The most well known white supremacist in the country was Richard Spencer in 2020. He organized the Charlottesville nazi rally and voted for Joe Biden.
He is a socialist.
All BLM violence is excluded from the data.
Antifa violence is excluded from the data.
Prison violence is excluded unless its white on minority and then its labeled right wing violence.
The only thing clear about the data is that liberals are too partisan to be trusted to be honest about data.

An anti-black mass shooting and hate crime occurred on June 17, 2015, in Charleston, South Carolina. Nine people were killed during a Bible study at Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church, the oldest black church in the Southern United States.[1]

Project much?
It doesnt upset me that you're stupid any more than it upsets me that the sky is blue.
Because you liberal idiots can't be disagreed with without having a meltdown you think normal people feel the same way.
This complete inability to control ykur emotions is entirely a leftist problem.
