The alleged shooter is a 57-year-old white male; according to his ministry's website, he “sought out militant Islamists in order to share the gospel and tell them that violence wasn't the answer.”

Lone actor grievance fuelled violence is no joke. It's linked to racism, misogyny, anti LGBT and basically all the hatred. They're fucking dangerous and it feels like they're on the rise. A recent Uk case is here

    Evangelicals aren’t the least bit unhinged. They only believe a book of tall tales is literal history. /s

    I remember the Time or Newsweek magazine cover that was a mugshot of an abortion doctor-murderer. He was smiling, happy as can be. I tried to look it up, but I’m too lazy to keep trying after five minutes without finding it. It was truly sickening. I think the was around late-90s or early-2000s if that rings a bell.

    It's amazing how many people in America support Zionist Fascism by quoting the bible and saying that that land must be a Jewish supremacists Ethnostate.

    It's not even just the hardcore Christian Trump voters. You'll hear this take from the liberals in the PNW too. Its amazing propaganda. People don't even think or question it because it's been burned into their brain since birth.

    It's why you hear "progressive except Palestine" so often.

    The irony of a guy whose faith came to power by r*ping and pillaging, telling members of another faith to be nonviolent is hilarious. He and his faith obviously just don't want the competition.

    Christian rent a cop gone hard core MAGA treasonous family murderer.

    Checks out.

    Remember kids, religion isn't spread by the quality of its truth, but by the quality of its violence.

    Another right wing shooter? But social media commenters all say he's a dangerous Democrat! (I've seen it on Facebook, Threads, Bluesky)

    Look, if the shooter's not a dangerous antifa Democrat or jihadist Muslim or violent immigrant or black or drag queen or other New World Orlder operative, obviously it was mental illness. White Christians could only do this sort of thing if they were mentally ill. Or it was the ADHD meds or SSRIs.

    At least that's what I've heard from Alex Fucking Jones. Or he'll claim it was a false flag. Every shooting. Every time.

    He also claims to have participated in security operations in the West Bank and Gaza.

    Worked for a company called Praetorian that he and his wife created. Using that as the name of your private security is suspect based on the Praetorian Guard and its history.

    I’m guessing he was one of those Republican hires in an attempt to be bipartisan.

    Also, the photo of the No Kings flyers that I saw looked weird. They don’t look like they are flyers with any info, just cut squares of paper that say “No Kings” on them from what I saw. If what I saw is legit, it feels potentially planted evidence?

    Edit 1: Photo of flyers I’ve seen on various stories

    Edit 2: YES, HE WAS REGISTERED REPUBLICAN AS OF 2022 per the NY Post

    Those look like a bunch of photocopies, like someone who's never been to a protest but wants the cops to think he's a protestor. Ya know, by bringing 100 paper photocopies of the name of the protest, like a protestor would.

    But I was told the woke liberals are the real danger that need to be actively and violently suppressed.

    found a manifesto and hit list in the alleged suspect’s car, which included politicians, abortion providers, and pro-abortion rights advocates.

    Pro-life, huh?

  • We can stop saying "evangelical ministry" and just call them "terrorist groups" now. We don't need to abide by their pleasantries.

    He went to persuade the militants and they persuaded him instead? "He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster. And when you gaze long into an abyss the abyss also gazes into you."

    I assume authorities are using even more resources to find this asshole than they did for Luigi, given 3 victims vs 1. Right???

    In the beginning. The entire first part of the bible, where the god floods the Earth for being too sinful. Then turns entire cities to salt for being LGBTQ.

    That's the part of christianity that the christians follow, you're just reading a chapter and ignoring the rest. Then you go "WHA? Why all the hate?" Well, the hate was spelled out in the first 10 chapters.

    You ignored it and pretended it doesn't exist.

    That's on you, dummy.

    Where does the hate come from? Religion. This priest spread hate his entire life, then decided he's going around murdering people due to his "higher morality" than the average population.

    There are hundreds of priests that do the same everyday, spread hate in the name of their hate religion.

    If you're christian, this is what christianity actually looks like. Not the one that they're trying to sell, the REAL christianity. The one that goes out into the communjity and murders those that they hate.
