I can only imagine how dumb/kooky you have to be to follow your “logic” and then conclude that the shooters intention was to attack Jews.

There are literally hundreds of more obvious targets in the greater Denver area than the ...checks notes...4th best kosher supermarket in Boulder.

Also, no idea where those screen grabs you’re posting come from, but I guarantee they’re not anything the shooter either looked at or posted online.

If you had an ounce of decency, you’d stop spreading malicious rumors you can’t begin to substantiate.

He only lived 22 minutes away. He was intimately familiar with the area and its inhabitants. he didn't need the internet to know where the Jews would be 5 days before Passover just like I don't need the internet to know where the Christians will be 5 days before Christmas.

You were adamant that this wasn't a a Jewish neighborhood but, yet, here we see that, indeed it was. That argument is over. You lost. He irrefutably targeted a Jewish neighborhood.

A.) Attacking Jewish grocery stores is not unprecedented, even here in America. There was a similar attack in jersey City just 2 years ago. There were literally hundreds of other targets in New Jersey that would have made better targets but they picked a Kosher supermarket in Jersey City. They went in with an AR15 and a shotgun and started shooting Jews. It's very similar to what we have here actually except there were two of them and they managed to kill three Jews.

B) I never claimed that this guy was a tactical genius. I would agree that he isn't. I think his mission was a failure in fact. He killed no Jews that day but I think he meant to.

I posted this on another thread but all the research was done in response to this post so it's actually meant for you.

I researched the table mesa area where this particular King Soopers was located and found this:

In the entire world it is estimated that there are only 600,000 people left that speak Yiddish. About 107 of them live in the Table Mesa neighborhood (population 3,360). That's 31.8 per 1,000 inhabitants. About 250,000 of them live in the United States (population 328.2 million) so that's 0.76 per 1,000 inhabitants. It is estimated that in Israel (population 9.3 million) there are 250,000 Yiddish speakers left. That's 26.8 per 1,000. So it looks like there's a higher concentration of Yiddish speakers in Table Mesa than in Israel. That seems significant.

It seems pretty clear to me that this was a very Jewish neighborhood that this guy went out of his way to attack. The composition of the neighborhood would have been common knowledge to him.

I think the guy ultimately failed in his mission to kill Jews however.

This business of attacking Kosher supermarkets is not unprecedented either. There was a similar attack in Jersey City back in 2019. 2 gunmen entered the store that day and 3 Jews were killed in the attack.
