I went through her twitter feed, she was just recently in Atlanta, and next week she was supposed to be here in LA doing something similar..its just awful that her last tweet was telling everyone to come and see her, she was looking forward to meeting people, for being to hear her music, she had no idea she only had hours left to live

Damn. I used to watch movies at that theater as a kid. So sad for this young lady’s family.

Loibl, if he survived would have, by his actions volunteered for liason with gorillas project. No Guns would be used, unlike the incident last week.

Is he an immigrant? His family left a scribbled note on their door and it seemed like it was written in a way that wasn’t English as a first language.

He intended to kill more people and was prevented by her brother.

So it sounds like his motivation was to kill many Christians. I’m wondering if he was radicalized (and schizo).

I went looking for more info on him. They’re already blaming the NRA and calling for gun confiscation, natch.

SO, did Loibl at some point in his insanity convert to Islam ? If he did it would certainly have enhanced the insanity.

Found this nugget from 2013. No mention of Kevin James Loibl, but clearly other “gender equality” activists were noticing Christina Grimmie’s Christian faith.

It would seem that in our current era your best option is to remain anonymous as much as possible. A bit difficult if your chosen profession is to be an entertainer.

Christina was openly Christian. And most Christians know that if you die for the sake of Jesus -- which apparently she did because her murderer hated her Christianity -- she earns a special place in Heaven, which Jesus taught us is not flat, but very hierarchical.

Dyan Roof is a homosexual who targeted a staunchly anti gay church.

Ya know what?

The bible says... wait for it... this is NORMAL

This is an age in which being Christian in a classic sense is easier to distinguish from being Christian in a cultural sense.

It’s interesting to see some of her other output. It looks like she was into in-your-face challenges to unbelievers. That takes some moxie, as it will likely get you ostracized from “polite society.” I have just barely begun to venture into that area and things get kind of testy on FR... and this is on FR... imagine general society.

Anyhow she’d probably chide you for saying damn here :-)

Anyhow I wrote something, maybe doggerel, but it was my tribute to the memory of someone I didn’t even know about until she had died.


CHRISTINA GRIMMIE

Christina Grimmie,
Suffused with joy,
Where did you go?
Life was no toy,
But a chance to share hope
With each girl and boy.

You’re singing now beyond the pearly gates.
They shot you on earth, but heaven’s love awaits
All souls on earth that on Jesus put their faith.

Christina Grimmie,
You died so young.
It scarcely had started
That golden tongue
When you were mowed down
So many songs unsung.

You’re singing now beyond the pearly gates.
They shot you on earth, but heaven’s love awaits
All souls on earth that on Jesus put their faith.

Christina Grimmie,
A warning you made
To the complacent folk
All on vanity laid
That for a single tomorrow
The price can’t be paid.

You’re singing now beyond the pearly gates.
They shot you on earth, but heaven’s love awaits
All souls on earth that on Jesus put their faith.

Christina Grimmie,
You sang on a stage
With “Before You Exit”
And your soul did engage
With Him living forever
And from age to age.

You’re singing now beyond the pearly gates.
They shot you on earth, but heaven’s love awaits
All souls on earth that on Jesus put their faith.

Christina Grimmie,
We thank God for you
That in the face of evil
Your faith remained true
And the world was shown
How its faith to renew.

You’re singing now beyond the pearly gates.
They shot you on earth, but heaven’s love awaits
All souls on earth that on Jesus put their faith.

I don't understand this - why can't eyewitness testimony be used now?

Part of the Bill of Rights is the Right to face your accuser, and to question any witness against you. Since Loibl is deceased he cannot exercise these rights, or so the theory goes. Is it bunkum? In my opinion, yes, as he is deceased by his own hand, IANAL...

It looks like that could well be why he murdered her. Maybe his rumored internet posts will be made public at some point so that we can see what he was saying.

And...that scum who shot her then cowardly took his own life will BURN in everlasting hell fire in eternal torture with no possible hope of relief forever and ever and ever until the last tick of eternity.

And after that last tick passes, eternity will have just barely begun.
