El Paso shooter pic here we go again

The problem I have with this is (label intended to divide) terrorism. Does terrorism not effectively enough convey terrorism?
In an ideal world, it should. And it should be like that, regardless of where these shooters fall on the political spectrum.
However, it hasn't played out that way here on the board (which is also a microcosm for our country at large). Every time Antifa committed violence, it was labeled as leftie/left-wing/liberal/libtard, etc, violence by right-wing posters on here. Or, blame was placed on Obama or another left-leaning politician, and none of the right-wingers on here had a problem calling it that.
But, now that the ones pulling the trigger are politically to the right, now all of a sudden it's taboo to say that political rhetoric is fueling violence and that people take exception to it being called right wing violence (not including you Cysko; as far as I know, you haven't claimed such of others in the past). The hypocrisy by many of the more conservative members of this board on this subject is frankly disgusting and pretty cowardly.

Comment? Now it doesn't matter anymore. Now he's a crazy person again.
And yes Cleve by the way it is more egregious if an illegal immigrant rapes and murders someone.

Speaking of hypocrisy, would you care to throw down your 2 pennies on the 293 people murdered in Chicago in 2019 so far?
over how msny instances were those 293 people murdered? oh and were tbey just random shootings? did one black guy shoot another black guy cause they thought he was too.light skinned? or were these directed gang/drug related hits?

Later, he claims that the American lifestyle “is destroying the environment of our country,” and that “the decimation of the environment is creating a massive burden for future generations.”
Sounds like one of you lefty's on the board to me..

I just that if you insist on pointing fingers every time something happens it becomes a roadblock to any genuine solution. It becomes an exercise in blaming people who aren't actually responsible for actions perpetrated by people they share some similarities with. I do believe that very thing more than any other has fueled the "white supremacist" problem that's currently a thing. When it's in vogue to tell one group of people that they're purely awful and responsible for all the evils of the world sooner or later they're going to start acting the part.

Idk man, that's getting awfully close towards "poor white males" getting the victim card. This terrorist.
I just have a hard time sympathizing with any white male that thinks they're being discriminated against or something. We never get held responsible for the actions of an individual. Not really at least. Just some Twitter folks. A lot of minorities though actually deal with that shit all of the time.
And before the obvious gets brought up I don't think that's the same as the radicalization of those in the middle East.
Pointing fingers is a roadblock, for sure. But you need to figure out root causes. Ask why. Etc.

All you ever are is a messenger. Just pasting articles here.
That guy saw UBI and then claimed with certainty he's a progressive leftist. Just so people like you could find this article and post it in places like this as fact.
The entire heart of that guys manifesto is anti immigration. Everything else stems from it. It's pretty fucking clear.
Again, read it yourself

This is great because this board is already trying to do that....

The New York Times even deliberately misattributed some of his words to certain causes. As the article says, “The manifesto that may be linked to [him] described an imminent attack and railed against immigrants, saying, ‘if we can get rid of enough people, then our way of life can be more sustainable.'” However, that particular line about “getting rid of enough people” was not in reference to immigration; it was in reference to global warming, as he wrote right before that sentence that “the next logical step is to decrease the number of people in America using resources.”

I have heard rhetoric like this before..oh yeah Cleve on the BB

Baloney because it makes me no difference to me personally what his motivation was. You are the one who will not listen to anything other than the narrative the MSM is spoon feeding you.

"Of course, the manifesto bleeds with outright racist language as he describes a “Hispanic invasion of Texas,” and a “cultural and ethnic replacement brought on by an invasion.” However, within the text, the shooter makes several comments that reveal his true political identity."
Yeah, I forgot that white supremacy and a “cultural and ethnic replacement brought on by an invasion [of illegal immigrants],” was a leftist position. Give me a fuckin' break.

I READ HIS MANIFESTO MYSELF
I DETERMINED MY OWN CONCLUSIONS
I haven't consumed any "MSM" (read: news that says something you don't like) coverage on this.
You can't just blindly through that insult back at me when it has no fucking basis in reality.
Again, read the damn thing yourself and see if you can develop your own opinion on one single thing for once in your life

From the article I posted it states the manifesto bleeds with outright racist language..sounds like more honest journalism than you get from the MSM to me.. sounds like just stating facts and not sugar coating anything ..as usual there are always two sides to a story

And you're the one accusing Woody of being spoonfed a narrative? I don't know if you're oblivious or just a hack at this point...

The article I posted gives both sides something missing from the MSM most of the time. Unless you don't think a person can be a progressive leftist and a racist at the same time. This killer shows you can be both actually.
