Stop calling it assassination but a murder - he wasn't an elected official. Stop calling him a conservative activist - he was a racist sexist vicious pied piper. He shouldn't have been murdered, neither should he be honored

So given the 'revelations' it seems clear that fair procedure is gone. I assume the one sided lunstic rhetoric from Trump will have this man abd anybody that knew him destroyed. Is this what an asylum looks like?

Obviously massive investigative resources being expended on this single shooting. However sad, it would be marvellous if a fraction of this energy was directed at the more than 30 school shootings this year. Supporting the 2nd amendment misinterpretation is a risk, going to school should not be!

Perfect example of how MSM platforms repeat MAGA propaganda w/out factual context. This piece ends: "'The problem is on the left. It’s not on the right,' [Trump] told reporters on Sunday." Nothing re: annual ADL report confirming 76% of violence is carried out by right-wing extremists. 4% by left.
