It will be interesting to see how the "news media" reports on the shooter at the Trump rally
7/13/ | MAGA2017

Thank God President Trump is OK. Sadly, at least one attendee at the rally was killed and another was hurt. Prayers for them. We don't know anything about the shooter yet but almost certainly it was a person of the political Left. The media won't be able to ignore that as they can't ignore this event. Suppose this person was a member of or had association with say, Antifa or BLM? What if it turns out this person voted for Biden or Bernie Sanders and donated to the Democratic party? How will the media cover this? They won't be able to dismiss this person as a "right-wing extremist" or a "maga Republican" as they like to do. We live in uncertain timwes. God Bless Trump and the USA.

Some of them DID call for violence against Trump. And do you remember the play in Central Park a few years ago when they depicted the assassination of Trump? Do you recall the Snoop Dogg video of him shooting Trump in the head? And all the rhetoric comparing Trump to Hitler is certainly an incitement to violence.

Very good guess!

Wouldn’t surprise me if that is how they handle it, at least somewhere. Like NPR, for example.

Where are they? Names? Call them out? Quotes, videos....

This needs to stop. BTW, it may be too late already.

an aszociate of mine doth wager a cup of home-brewed coffee that this now dead piece of human flesh was a member of biden’s corp of invaders, possibly a mohammedan.

I’m watching a new stream now where they are saying apparently it was a ā€œā€ AR style weapon

They’ll call him “right wing extremist”.

I posted this today.

Comey, McCabe, Strzok, Clapper, Page, Rice, Brennen, Hayden all want one heartbeat to stop and they are pros at making that happen globally.

Unfortunately, I think you have nailed it.

I would not be surprised if some news outlet praised the deceased shooter as “a martyr in the attempt to save democracy from Trump”.

That is how sick and twisted some people are out there.

This is a pretty graphic picture, so be forewarned:

I mean, post it outside of FR. Of course, it might get censored. But people need to be reminded what happens when ad hominems are tossed around willy nilly. They come back to bite you in the rear. Or they should anyway.

“If he left a manifesto, or posted his intentions on social media, will we ever get to see it?”

Depends.

The shooter or the victim?

It’s been reported that he posted to YouTube right before he did it

Yup. There’s been some awful media coverage so far.

Looks like he caught one near the left cheek bone and out behind and below the right ear.

Looks like he had some type of cosmetic change to his right ear lobe, spockian looking.
