(16,170 posts)No wonder the terrorist was apprehended without incident. He's a white boy. Part of the bro-club.

Obviously the sheriff identified with the killer, not the killed. Why? Skin color? Eye shape?

(2,953 posts)Sorry to harp, but it's getting on my last nerve all the "oh, it's not racism, that'd be a hate crime" with the unspoken "it's just misogyny!" as if it's okay if it's "just" run-of-the-mill misogyny and they can't count it in their "uptick in hate crimes against asians"
I admit, I'm extrapolating a little from what they're really saying, which is more at "he says it's not racially motivated, we asked him. He mentioned sex addiction and removing temptation"

(18,362 posts)But they will never get to have another livable day because they were shot dead by a incel or what not.
But seeing his tee-shirts I can see why this skinhead nazi "spoke person" didn't give not one thought to the victims. Their families will be having bad days for the rest of their lives.

(18,881 posts)Where I live, they don't stop crime, but they do use force and chemical weapons against peaceful protestors. Most murderers get away with their crimes because most LE do not have the skills to conduct a proper murder investigation and usually contaminate any evidence on the scene or make poor decisions that irreparably harm the case. If a white man guns down minorities, they are treated with kid gloves by their white power allies in the police force. If black, you're gunned down sleeping in your own bed, and the idiots who murdered you walk free. I stopped subscribing to the illusion of police as protectors and purveyors of justice, especially after the T**** era.

(1,450 posts)Immediately he has mental problems. If black, he would simply be a thug with no stable family life, an addict and all around bad person.
I wonder if he was at the Capitol on Jan 6?
