Oh, he stopped for good now.

Philippines is still mostly a society where queers are not accepted (unlike Thailand)

Do HIPPA confidentiality rules apply to deceased murderers? Would be interesting to see the list of prescriptions this freak was on. Would the families of his victims, and other victims of murders committed by killers on “therapeutic” psychoactive drugs, join in a class action suit against the pharmaceutical industry and the psychiatric “profession”? The potential sums would be staggering.

I’ve been acquainted with one brony about 10 years ago. The guy, who appeared to be late 20s, worked tech and looked like a typical hipster with beard, beanie and smoked a pipe.

He was a loner. I’d think most of these brony types are loners.

We have a self-admitted Brony as a Freeper. I forget his handle. He seems like an okay guy. I'd be curious to hear his take on the right wing extremist narrative.

I’ve read about the “bronies”. I skoffed and move’d on, but it’s apparently far worse than I thought.

AM radio this am said his mother turned him in two years ago. Where have we heard about another mother turning in a mass shooter and was ignored just like this one.

“Brony on­line cul­ture has dis­played el­e­ments of far-right and white na­tion­al­ist ex­trem­ism,”

That sounds fake. Apparently, there is a site in Britain "My Nationalist Pony," but it's not clear how serious it is or how much of an audience it has. Some fan created a Nazi pony called Aryanne, but how much does that reflect the whole community? As with Pepe the Frog, some nut case is always latching on to something, especially something popular with other nut cases. The irony here is that "My Little Pony" is owned by Hasbro (formerly Hassenfeld Brothers).

Oh my goodness . . .

So am I, but I've never shot anyone, and don't intend to!

What was that about liberals using every incident to punish the innocent?

SNIP

“I hope that I can be with Ap­ple­jack in the af­ter­life, my life has no mean­ing with­out her,” Hole wrote on his Facebook page at 10:19 p.m. Thursday, less than an hour before his rampage began, the outlet reported.

Just another normal white guy. They are all like this.

Howdy Everypony! It's me, your friendly Freeper Brony, CtBigPat! Freeper since 1998, brony for nine years, attended five BronyCons and numerous brony meetups.

First off, contrary to what you would expect this isn't a gay thing, it's a nerd thing. Introverts, autists and geeks of all sorts. The weird kids who didn't fit in at school. Think Trekkies but more colorful.

As for the show itself, My Little Pony: Friendships is Magic (the fourth generation of the show and the version that created the brony fandom) is a decent, well written cartoon. But more than just entertaining, the show connects on a deep level with nerds. I describe it as Socializing 101 for all of us who missed that class. The central character is a nerd who gets sent to a small town to learn about friendship. In our sex obsessed society we have forgotten about basic friendship.

Politically, while most bronies are younger people (teens, twenties, thirties)a lot of them lean conservative. When you're an outsider without a lot of friends you learn to take care of yourself rather than rely on others. I attended a Trump rally in 2016 with a fellow brony and the Connecticut Brony meetup group does shooting meetups.

My friends and I at an apple picking meetup a few years ago. I'm in the green shirt and cowboy hat.

Words fail me! You look like the SANEST, and the OLDEST, of the whole bunch......SURELY, SURELY you can find friends that aren't into cartoons and carry around DOLLS!

What do your family members say about you......???

Let's really crank up the weirdness:

But I always rooted for COBRA in "G.I. Joe". They had the coolest stuff and more distinct personalities.

I've always been the "odd" one...

You probably wouldn't guess it, but that group includes a tax accountant, an MIT student and several business owners/professionals.
