Today's mass shooting in the US

dowie · 3 Aug 2019 at 22:12

OMG some people on Facebook are a bit... erm... thick. There is an FB profile with the correct name that seems to be unavailable now (presumably FB took it down), unfortunately there are some others with the same name now getting a whole bunch of comments on their newsfeed:

This other guy has literally just locked down his account and just posted a status to say it isn't him... yet still people are having a pop at him... WTF? Do they think he's updating from jail?

Not sure if this is his twitter, looks a bit like him, username certainly fits with other mass shooters if so:

God bless Trump.

Hispanic invasion!?

El Paso has been majority Hispanic the whole time that shooter has been alive.

That's like a black guy in Shropshire complaining that whites are invading.

He looks pretty young, so I imagine they've been around since his grandparents also.

Indeed, the ignorance of these racist mass murderers is astonishing.

Apparently apprehended without firing a shot by police officers, sounds about white.

On another note, was probably for the best

and so it begins...

If he turns out to be a white guy will the fact he wasn't shot will prompt opinion pieces or blog posts about "white privilege"?

Source?

The guys a scumbag regardless but im not seeing this information anywhere as it seems a bit early and a bit to convenient for this info to be floating about in the new cycle

Source for what? You just quoted a post with sources?

Edit - it was an embedded tweet, looks like twitter has removed it.

From what i could see the new article didnt state he was a white supremacist or a Christchurch fanboi and you linked a twitter account that may or may not be him that also doesn't confirm that

No, the twitter account is irrelevant, that is just a guess.

Go quote my post again and see that there is an embedded tweet missing/no longer displayed (presumably as twitter has now taken it down) - it contained his manifesto direct from his Facebook.

Still not seeing it

Edit: NVM found it myself after some googling.

You haven't quoted it, you just took a screenshot so of course you're not seeing it if the embedded tweet has been removed. Press the quote button and now see what it shows... I'm not lying to you but if you don't believe me or want to see for yourself then at least do what I ask.

Found it myself anyway and hes clearly an incel loner blaming everyone else for his problems

It is an embedded tweet, if twitter then deletes the tweet it won't show anymore!

Craterloads · 4 Aug 2019 at 00:07

Capture in this case if far worse than dying during the shooting because I’ll get the death penalty anyway. Worse still is that I would live knowing that my family despises me. This is why I’m not going to surrender even if I run out of ammo. If I’m captured, it will be because I was subdued somehow.

Guess thats a positive if there can be in a case like this.
