Here's What the Buffalo Shooter's Alleged Manifesto Actually Says
PJ Media ^ | 5/15/2022 | Matt Margolis

Posted on 05/16/2022 10:54:29 AM PDT by Signalman

With their usual swiftness, leftists on Twitter quickly launched a seemingly coordinated effort to blame Fox News and Tucker Carlson for allegedly radicalizing the suspect.

As word of the shooting quickly spread on social media, so did reports that the shooter had posted a 180-page manifesto online, explaining his racist and anti-Semitic motives and detailing how he planned to carry out the attack. PJ Media obtained a copy of the manifesto, and while we cannot independently verify its authenticity, it is widely believed to be genuine, and some left-wing operatives are intent on claiming that the manifesto proves the shooter was radicalized by Fox News and right-wing politics. I’ll show you want the manifesto actually says (though I will not link to it).

First, despite the coordinated effort to blame Fox News, the manifesto attacks a number of news networks, including Fox, for hiring Jews.

But here’s what the manifesto says about the shooter’s politics:

Did you always hold these views?

"When I was 12 I was deep into communist ideology, talk to anyone from my old highschool and ask about me and you will hear that. From age 15 to 18 however, I consistently moved farther to the right. On the political compass I fall in the mild-moderate authoritarian left category, and I would prefer to be called a populist."

So, the shooter describes himself as “authoritarian left-wing,” but the left and S.E. Cupp are trying to blame “right-wing extremism.” Okay?

I agree. Not only is the manifesto 180 pages, it is also very well written, perfect grammar and usage. Somebody wrote it for him.

The people who were quick to exploit the situation to attack Fox News and conservatives were wrong and should be ashamed of themselves.

Those people are incapable of feeling shame, among other things.

Rhetorical question....

Why do we even have form 4473 if this nitwit with a proven record of mental incapacity make it by the NICS check?

This is the problem. The national media immediately blames this horrible act on the right, and then the right spends it’s time defending why that’s not true.

In other words, we are always on defense.

That said, I don’t think this loon is left or right and politics shouldn’t be part of the discussion, but at the same time, someone like Tucker needs to spell it out and pin it on the left.

Fight fire with fire.

The murderer knew that there was a security guard at the store armed with a 9mm pistol.

How did he know that?

There was a surveillance operation run before the shootings.

The murderer had help.

Kid? He’s 18. I’ve seen first hand what smart high school kids can do, and this is well within the realm.

Form 4473 is to put FFLs and gunshops out of business.

And to lock up Vets, and others . . .

To be fair to her, that is from his laments on immigration and whites not having babies, which are what one hears only on the right, not on the left. So it is understandable that he would be described as such.

Much of it is virtually cut and paste, verbatim, with only minor alterations from the manifesto of the NZ shooter, who largely, cut and paste his manifesto from that of Anders Breivik.

In short, he plagiarized, like many 18 year olds do.

An y further information on Gendron will be VERY carefully screened for public consumption, and NOTHING about the substance of this manifesto will be mentioned,except possibly for him to validate the identity they’ve already crafted for him.

It’s been established he copy-pasted big chunks from the manifesto of Brenton Tarrant (New Zealand mosque mass murderer) and stuff he found on 4chan. He did not write all that himself.

True, but don’t you think one of the most suspicious things about the format are these ready-made “Q and A”s where it’s as if “he” is making it all the easier on the MSM by disallowing them to ask “their own” questions?

As is always with these things, the first most important thing to do is figure out which political side they are on or which is to blame. Ignore anything about prevention. And then of course if the person or persons are right-leaning you blame it on a false flag etc

I mean honestly if you tell white men they are “losing their country” over and over it’s going to have a few consequences, that’s about the simplest explanation

***Why do we even have form 4473 ***

When Pat Purdy was released from a California mental institution back in 1989, he was allowed to violate state and federal gun laws to buy a rifle and handgun. He even passed the California waiting period.
Then he shot up the Stockton School yard killing several students and himself.
The California assault rifle ban bill, which had been shelved several months earlier due to opposition, was suddenly pulled out and passed before opposition could be mounted against it.

Interesting thing, when I heard the California AW ban bill had been shelved I figured there would be a big killing in just a few weeks or months in California, and the bill would be passed.
