Seriously though, the photo on right (his profile side) looks like a normal, low res photo. It's all uniformly shitty looking and low detail. But the left shot (front on) looks like parts of his face is in 720p or something, but then his shoulders look crappy and low res like the profile shot. I've done enough digital video and image editing to know something is up with that.

It's as if they specifically wanted you to see every individual hair of his fat nerd beard.

"Please pay attention to the digital photography choices and not the fact that this is yet another example of violence predicated on conservative beliefs", in other words

Haha what??? What the hell are you talking about? I'm unaware of any conservative belief that even remotely suggests you should commit violence against anyone at all.

"Don't do drag shows in front of kids" isn't any more of a directive to kill the people doing it than "Don't have a stripper at your kid's birthday party" is a directive to kill the stripper.

It is, believe it or not, possible to criticize things without also somehow encouraging people to go on insane murder sprees. Just like we don't blame bernie sanders for that dude who shot up a republican baseball game.

The back shot of him from his previous bomb threat surrender is different too.

It is very unlikely this non-binary guy listened to Ben Shapiro or Matt Walsh. But I won’t say it’s impossible. He would not have been accepted amongst conservatives as non-binary, he’d have a better chance just being gay. But maybe he is just making up the non-binary thing to try to avoid the hate charges. But that’s also ridiculous because he’s spending life in prison either way

Why he lashed out at what is most likely his own community is beyond me

I personally think the spurned virgin is the most likely angle. He was gay, or bi, or something, and was rejected by other gay men at various points in his past. So he decided to punish them

It’s played out the same way before for dozens of straight mass murderers

These things didn't happen when queer gay sex weird culture wasn't being pushed in school and law.

Honestly I feel more oppressed now than in 2008. Ppl just ignored/ didn't care / know. Now we have the fucking Kardashians. Grimes. Taylor swift. And a bunch of weird old crazy people who don't even qualify remotely as female pushing shit. Being appointed to HHS and other crap. We don't need fucking representation at the head of the CDC right now.

It's going to get a lot worse. Especially when queer young adults and teens start acting out and creating an even more violent counterculture which is already a problem.

I know a hardcore Trump supporter who is married and has two kids. He has confided in me that he is gay, and he has been caught twice soliciting explicit texts from other men on a company phone. He believes gay people are evil, and that it is evil to have gay thoughts, despite the fact that he is gay. He tries to resist these urges but fails. He's deeply unhappy.

Don't underestimate self-loathing. Dunno if that's what this shooter had, but it is certainly possible.

Conservatives who support Matt Walsh and Ben Shapiro and the others aren't as culpable in violent incidents like this as the person who is in there pulling the trigger, but they don't have clean hands, either. Stochastic terrorism is very real.

Yea I personally have switched my stance on giving children hormones and sex changes to save gay lives. I’ll give the kids them myself if I have to
