It's not Muslims; it's white nationalists

[Manonthestreet]

Stories have Police arriving 6 minutes after shooting which went on for 20 minutes....Ok what did they do...wait for him to come out....

 

[Crepitus]

Do you think most MAGA people are like that guy, or is he an extreme minority? Is it possible that it would be ridiculous to use him as an example of what Trump supporters are?

An extreme example yes, a ridiculous one? No.

 

[Superbadbrutha]

Folks that were lynching and murdering folks during the 40s, 50s and 60s were also considered as decent folks.

Once again an outrageous and unfair comparison. You're insane.

How so?

I called the majority of Trump supporters decent people and then you deflected by comparing them to murderers from generations ago.

Generations ago, that is during MY lifetime.

You are trying to connect decent, everyday people to extremist murderers for political points and it's gross. You're not operating inside reality. You're either insane or you have absolutely no shame or integrity, maybe both.

Dude these white supremacist were called decent everyday folks what the fuck are you talking about. Strom Thurmond ran for President on a segregation, racist platform and he is honored today. The Confederacy has monuments and statues all over the South honoring these racist traitors. You are the one who is not dealing in reality.

Earlier you seemed to suggest that it's not ridiculous to use a mass shooter as an example of who and what Trump supporters are. For clarification, do you actually believe that? Will you state it clearly?

If the mass shooter is a Trump supporter than how do you disconnect him from Trump? I am not stating all Trump supporters believe as this cat does, but do you agree that his racist rhetoric help set this guy in motion.

 

[Crepitus]

Do you think most MAGA people are like that guy, or is he an extreme minority that would be ridiculous to use as an example of what Trump supporters are?

I noticed that these patsies are always young kids that don't know their heads from their ass.
BTW, why hasn't any of them been put on public trial.
The Parkland shooter still hasn't had a public trial.
Nobody has said whether they checked to see if bullets in the victims matched the rifle of the perp in any of these shootings.
Why is that?

I'm sure they've checked, that would only make the news if they didn't. Take your absurd conspiracy theories elsewhere.

At a few minutes before 11 am on Saturday in El Paso, Texas, a gunman in his early 20s opened fire on a crowd of shoppers in a mall killing at least 20 and wounding dozens of others, placing the suspect’s rampage among the top ten deadliest mass shootings in US history.

“I saw people crying: children, old people, all in shock,” one eyewitness told The New York Times. “I saw a baby, maybe six to eight months old, with blood all over the belly.”

As hospitals in the local area deal with what can only be described as the bloody battlefield carnage, federal and state authorities are moving closer towards establishing the suspect’s motive for carrying out the mass casualty attack.

Federal law enforcement investigators have told CNN that they are reviewing writings they believe to have been posted online by the suspect, Patrick Crusius, a 21-year-old white man from Dallas, but are yet to publicly confirm.

Essentially, the gunman’s alleged manifesto reads as a carbon copy of that espoused by those who carried out the recent and respective attacks on the mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand, and the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh.

"This is a response to the Hispanic invasion," it reads, according to the FBI. It then goes on to accuse the Democratic Party of "pandering to the Hispanic voting bloc”, while also expressing his contempt for “race mixing” and support for “sending them back.”

These right-wing extremists are not only channelling neo-Nazi borne “Great Replacement” conspiracy theories, which frame demographic change as a threat to white Europeans, but also taking a cue from the words and policies of President Donald Trump.

It was only two weeks ago when Trump inspired an auditorium full of his supporters to chant “send her back” in reference to the country’s first elected black Muslim congresswoman, Ilhan Omar, who was born in Somalia and migrated to the US as the young daughter of refugee parents.

Earlier in the year, Trump smeared all immigrants approaching the US-Mexico border as invaders when he said, “People hate the word ‘invasion', but that’s what it is.”

Trump has also referred to Latin American refugees and asylum seekers as “rapists”, “criminals”, drug dealers” and “terrorists”.

It’s worth remembering that when a Rwandan politician described Rwanda’s Tutsi minority as “cockroaches” it started a genocide that resulted in the deaths of upwards of one million people in that country.

These are the same flames Trump fans with his dehumanising discourse. It is no coincidence that far-right extremists were responsible for 100 per cent of all terrorist attacks on US soil since the end of 2017, according to the Anti-Defamation League, and why hate crimes against Jews, Muslims, and other minorities are at unprecedented levels.

Much of Trump’s political shtick is pivoted on the white nationalist notion that white Americans find themselves in a do-or-die struggle with non-white immigrants, and thus framing Hispanics, Muslims, Jews, African Americans, and other ethnic minorities to be an external threat, or “invaders”.

Just hours before Robert Bowers walked into the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh on October 27 last year, he posted on social media that the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society wants “to bring hostile invaders to dwell among us. It’s the filthy EVIL Jews. Brining (sic) the Filthy EVIL Muslims into the country!! Stop the kikes then Worry About the Muslims!”

Making matters worse is the fact that Trump and his supporters are hyping themselves in what can best be described as a positive reinforcement loop, in which his supporters reward his racism with approval, and he, in turn, rewards them, whether that be by calling on a ban on Muslim immigration or channelling funds from the Pentagon for the construction of his border wall.

In time, we will learn exactly what drove the suspect to carry out today's mass shooting, but what we know for sure is the United States finds itself in the midst of a domestic white nationalist terrorism crisis.

There's a bunch of them right here on this site.

How did you miss them?

Really, go back and study a little American History.

Most Trump supporters are decent people that disagree with you on key issues. You think that makes them evil, which is how you can make the ridiculous leaps that you do. I think that makes you a fool.

Sadly I think that's becoming less true every day.

We are in the middle of a crisis when our mainstream media is pushing an agenda rather than reporting the news, and where Americans are becoming more and more polarized as a result. We are also in a crisis because our legal system has taken away our ability to deal with the severely mentally ill.

hyper partisans use these shootings as a "gotcha" moment but do so only when it serves their agenda. When it doesn't serve their agenda, they ignore and downplay.
