A Hispanic classmate? WTF does that have to do with anything?? Stupid for voting for Trump huh?

[Vesuvian]

That’s an Italian last name- possibly via South America, which would make him “hispanic.”

[Magnum44]

Yes, an implication that minorities should never vote for Trump.

[Freee-dame]

Pronouns are not our friends, especially in headlines.

[piasa]

The shooter apparently accepted the left’s false narrative that Trump is anti-Hispanic (anti-minority) and couldn’t understand why the Hispanic student would be a Trump supporter.

[piasa]

Thus the future shooter berated the hispanic student, calling him stupid.

[bray]

Did this Oswald get training from Ray Epps?

[RckyRaCoCo]

But I thought HE was being bullied? /s

There is so much manure being spread I'M starting to worry about globull warming.

[fluffy]

In 2016 Crooks would have been 12, not 16. Unless they meant 2020?

[Demiurge2]

Shooter taking any prescription drugs/antidepressants?

[uranium penguin]

The ONLY picture they have of this guy is from 10 yrs ago when he was in Jr. High?
(Trayvon Martin syndrome here!)

At this point.. My guess is he was ANTIFA or some climate change cult . But the powers that be just won’t say it. The lack of info is pretty deafening.

[GLDNGUN]

It appears he wanted to shoot up the rally, perhaps kill Trump, and then do the same at the DNC.

[blueunicorn6]

Actions speak louder than words.

He shot at President Trump, not the crowd or Biden.

[RobertoinAL]

Both of Crooks parents were councilors? That might explain a lot.

[Lonesome in Massachussets]

He said in 2016 — when Crooks would have been about 16 years old — that he “disliked all of them.”

If Crooks was 20 on July 13th, 2024, he would have been "about" 12 in 2016.

Thomas Matthew Crooks (September 20, 2003 – July 13, 2024)

Crooks turned 13 in 2016.

[Eli Kopter]

globull warming drove him crazy enough to become an assassin?

[No name given]

That means he was most likely an anarchist.

[No name given]

Obviously.

[No name given]

That’s true.

[No name given]

Rather, the fearmongering did.
