I kinda expected a dude who dressed as a cop to murder multiple people to have a better plan than “run and hide in the woods.” I was totally expecting a long, drawn out manhunt. Glad it’s over and people can sleep peacefully though
He might have but was interrupted in the middle of the second murder.
He wasn’t going to stop with two. Had a list of ~70 people he wanted dead for either being Democrats or providing medical care to women. Thr guy’s plan didn’t involve getting away; just a lot more dead people.
Every last one of these insane fucks thinks themselves some kind of chosen, picked-by-god leader of the apocalypse main-character in the stupidest fairy-tale they never grew out of. They aren’t just narcissistic, that implies some level of brain-power. This is a whole other level of self-absorption that turns off conscious thought.
I’m not even being hyperbolic, fundamentalist Christian doctrine is meant to strip of you thinking, of rationalization. You can be a very smart person and not have conscious thought about critical aspects of life or the world around you. Thinking isn’t the same as being able to drive cars, go to work, plan murders, etc. You can do all that stuff without having a mental dialogue or monolog that lets you reason out ideas in your head. You only get that inner-dialogue if you’ve grown up in an environment that allows for it, by training you to question and figure things out on your own.
Religion doesn’t let you figure things out on your own. You exist as this shape moving through life just waiting to die so Jesus can wrap you up in his arms and rock you to sleep like a lil’ baby or something. It’s a death cult. There is no value towards life of anyone. I was raised in that environment but never quite got the same incentive for heaven because it never made sense and seemed like eternal bliss would be a boring nightmare you could never wake up from.
Man you remember when Michael Reinoehl shot a white nationalist in self defense and was gun downed in a hail of bullets the second LEOs got site of him.
Pepperidge Farms remembers.
I remember reading about that. Quite a lot of fuckery, though I’m also not surprised. Despite Portland being very blue, the surrounding rural area is deep red with right-wing nutjobs. Up there with Michigan-crazy right-wing militia. So odds are good police knew the guy from Saturday nights…
Kid gloves for white nationalists, jackboots for the rest of us
I sometimes visit the successor site of the_donald to see them erase their memories in real-time. They were 1000% sure it was a Dem black person yesterday. They even had insider info from police connections. Today it’s crickets and false flag.
(There’s always, always, without fail, accusations of false flags. From CIA, from FBI, from antifa, from George Soros, from Bill Gates. How do you even talk to people like this?)
Alex Jones sets a lot of that up too. It’s really disturbing. He’ll talk about how there’s going to be a false flag shooting preemptively any time there is a big protest or similar planned. It’s almost like he’s outright calling for it to happen, giving permission to some psycho with a gun because they know he’ll cover for them.
Oh I don’t doubt Alex Jones is still at it. I don’t follow closely at all to the conservative-sphere but they all absolutely incite stochastic terrorism.
And they all are quick to discard previous and current beliefs as if they never happened. It’s kind of crazy how efficient they all are at converging on the same new belief when the previous one becomes too indefensible.
You don’t it will only tighten the brainwashing screws even tighter
Trump considering a pardon in 3…2…1…
trump doesn’t get to pardon state charges, so have fun with that.
Who’s going to stop him? There has been a lack of that lately.
I would normally post the “That’s not how this works. that’s not how any of this works” meme in response to this…
But the rule of law is over. We’re still masquerading as if the music hasn’t stopped. It’s not clear to me what law, even means. So like sure, maybe he will. It’s absurd even in principle, but here we are dancing in the absurd.
If a government isn’t bound by laws, them laws have no meaning.
Yep, same. I am continuously baffled at people who are surprised when the regime does something wildly illegal and outside of their jurisdiction. The question is no longer “who’s going to let them”. The question has become “who’s going to stop them”, and the answer thus far, in the context of any part of our officialdom, is “absolutely fucking nobody”.
There is no way Trump will pardon him
Other famous predictions I’ve made include:
-
There is no way Trump will get elected
-
There is no way Trump will get elected again
As President, Trump can only pardon people for federal crimes, not state.
If he wants to pardon people for Minnesota state crimes, he has to run to be governor of Minnesota, win, and he still can’t do pardons single-handedly then:
https://mn.gov/crc/about-us/board-pardons.jsp
The Minnesota Board of Pardons (Board), which consists of the Governor, the Minnesota Attorney General, and the Chief Justice of the Minnesota Supreme Court, may grant a pardon or commutation to individuals who meet basic eligibility requirements set forth in state law. To receive a pardon or commutation, the Governor and at least one other Board member must vote in favor of clemency.
There’s no law saying Trump can’t run for governor of all 50 states simultaneously. Oh, wait, there is? Well there’s no law saying Trump can’t break the law
There’s no rule that says a dog can’t play basketball!
And democrat leaders are like “Don’t worry everyone, the rule-book CLEARLY states that a dog can’t play basketball, if he even tries it will be a violation of our sacred institution” As the dog is dunking in the background and scoring points.
and biting the other team while his fans cheer
See, the mistake you’re making is thinking Trump gives a fuck about the law.

Now vigilante murder is bad when the victim is “one of us,” but when it was “one of them,” it was all cheers and applause.
This kind of comment is a hallmark of a 2-dimensional mind, a linear thinking system that doesn’t look at outcomes, people, lives or anything other than what group you belong to and how accepted you are in that group.
I can rip your logic to shreds if you want to dance. If you really, truly, actually think you have a point and moral, ethical framework to make some kind of argument, I can dismantle it and make you very frustrated. Just say the word and I’ll make you painfully aware that you’re not just ill-informed, but a victim of media you choose to consume and as a result are incapable of juggling more than one idea in your head at a time and this is why you’re miserable.
Sure, let’s go. But if your argument is as strong as you seem to think it is, you shouldn’t need to wrap it in this condescension and chest-thumping. I’m always open for an debate - but if the tone stays at “let me enlighten your dumb little mind,” I’ll check out rather quick. I’m here to discuss ideas, not trade insults.
Now, I’ll be the first to admit my original comment was intentionally provocative but I stand by the underlying point: I oppose vigilante violence across the board, regardless of who the target is. And if someone cheered for Luigi’s killing but condemns this one, I think that’s morally inconsistent. That’s what I was calling out - a double standard that, to me atleast, reeks of tribalism more than principle.
