MSNBC: law enforcement was looking into the manifesto a couple of hours before the shooting from a tip.
it’s real guys..get over it
Cretin.
Ugh.... so, they had two hours of lead time and the kid’s picture? And.... I don’t have to ‘get over’ anything. Get it.
Unless you have some inside information, I'll wait for more confirmation. But it is good to know that if the manifesto is legitimate, that the shooter says his motivations aren't related to current political issues:
"My ideology has not changed for several years. My opinions on automation, immigration, and the rest predate Trump and his campaign for president. I putting this here because some people will blame the President or certain presidential candidates for the attack. This is not the case. I know that the media will probably call me a white supremacist anyway and blame Trump's rhetoric. The media is infamous for fake news. Their reaction to this attack will likely just confirm that."
It will be interesting to see what the media has to say.
If the document is actually the manifesto of the shooter then we are seeing yet another individual with some kind of twisted mindset that combines ideas of the left, like radical environmentalism, with fear of future job losses due to automation, and an opposition to immigrants into a basis for violence.
