MAGA Jumps to Blame Deadly ICE Shooting on 'Radical Left'

[Zorro]

MAGA Republicans have jumped to blame Democrats for a fatal shooting at a Texas immigration facility that killed two people and injured another.

Federal authorities say detainees were among the victims and no federal agents had been shot.

However, even before the circumstances of the shooting were known, Vice President JD Vance posted on X that “the obsessive attack on law enforcement, particularly ICE, must stop.”

Right-wing provocateur Laura Loomer also chimed in, declaring that “it’s pretty obvious a memo has gone out to the radical left. They will be killing their targets from roof tops.”

1. Loomer is a lunatic. If we had better gun laws, this might not have happened.

8. She's not allowed, by law, to own guns, btw.

[OLDMDDEM]

12. Thanks for that. We still need better gun laws. I wasn't implying she had anything to do with the shooting.

[Hassin Bin Sober]

14. You are welcome! I'm agreeing with you. She has a major screw loose.

2. 100% projections - "killing targets from rooftops"

No, MAGA, we don't think in the ways you do.

Stop being so obvious about it.

3. Even here on DU we just had a troll trying to claim that rifle cartridges were found at the scene of the sniper nest

with anti-ICE inscriptions on them and that this was a case of friendly fire, meaning, I guess, that the sniper was targeting ICEholes and missed, hitting detainees.

MIRt took care of that problem toot sweet.

7. That's being reported on CNN

It's being sourced to "Special Agent in Charge Joe Rothrock."

Here's the excerpt:

“Early evidence that we’ve seen from rounds that were found near the suspected shooter contain messages that are anti-ICE in nature,” Rothrock added.

9. There are pictures of the ammo circulating

Looks like old military ball ammo on a stripper clip. So old military rifle…nothing new.

13. And just who is feeding this info to the news outlets?

Kash Patel? Kristy Noem?
Sorry if my skepticism mode is on high alert, especially given the statements in the past few days from these lunatics declaring that they're going after "left wing" radical groups for "terrorism".

4. Seems like A Trend

And the media is also starting to call it a copycat trend. Fuck that

5. Every acccusation is a confession.

'Splain this.

Coincidence?

6. Just heard on our Noon news

The shooter was aiming at the ICE officers. I was alarmed. I believe the reports here are more accurate. Hearst owns our NBC station here.

10. Aiming at ICEhole officers?

According to whom? Kash Patel? Kristy Noem?
I would take that with a huge grain of salt, any competent shooter with a halfway decent rifle would've hit those ICEholes, sorry, but my skepticism at this claim, not from you but from the news outlets, coming from Kash or Kristy is highly suspect, given their statements recently about going after "left wing" radical groups.

11. Yeah. I won't be listening to clinic bombers, doctor killers, and those who deny January 6 and the attacks on

police. And that's just a very small list of right-wing violence.

Nothing they have to say means anything.

15. WRAL Raleigh reports the shells had "anti-Ice" markings of some sort. MAGA shooter trying to set up Dems/left?

Sounds fishy.

16. Wonder if it will turn out to be an ice agent who went postal on the detainees?
