Trump is responsible for this killer in El Paso. All of the vile/hateful stuff Trump says about immigrants caused 20 people to lose their lives today.

Where's the link to the FB page? The image was created in 2016 and has nothing to do with today's gun murders.

"The owner of the Twitter account in question did not himself tweet the image."

I simply made a correct statement.

I never said the killer himself tweeted the picture. I said he hit "like" on the picture. Which is what Snopes says, which is why I included the link.

What in the world are you talking about with this "outed" language?

Are you calling me a troll? Seriously?

And I am being quite sincere. I really want to know why you are making such a stink about the rather immaterial mixing up of Facebook and Twitter by folks in this thread, and why you angrily, and incorrectly, insisted that picture had nothing to do with the incident, when it clearly did.

Except it was posted by the guy who did the murders. With guns. Who wrote a white supremacist manifesto. Spelling out the name of a man who spreads white supremacy in guns. But yeah. Nothing to do with it.

Asking for verification is not the wrong side of the cracker, you are.

Because that tweet was all over the place. But I'm sure you know a lot about crackers.
