Doesn’t look good!!

Edit: Saw a closeup, he’s 💯 dead. Jugular shot and it gushes like the Cool-Aid man shattered.

Edit 2: Fox is apparently reporting that he’s admitted to the hospital, maybe he’s a snowball that survived hell?

Edit 3: Mixed reporting on if the shooter has been arrested or not. A video showed an old bald white dude in custody.

Edit 4: Trump just had to be the one to announce it… He’s dead. Apparently the old white dude was not the shooter. You can see from the distant video that people did not react to a close shooter, it was at distance.

    APnews already has a list of democrats saying “no place for political violence”.

    There, however, is a place for violence when it comes to the American government murdering members of my family, other workers, those abroad, anyone who sneezes wrong, etc, etc, etc.

    Social murder is too big a concept for liberals I guess.

        I’d count (at least “casually”, as in casual conversation) supporting/enacting a genocide as social murder. Maybe a stretch of terms, but support for one is almost always tied to the other.

          What I mean is that it’s a much stronger case of social murder; even in socialist countries there’s social murder (though often not the fault of the government, moreso the imperialist system), but genocide is a different thing entirely that our liberals can’t bring themselves to condemn when it’s their side doing it.
