No I'm sure it's coming from Alex Jones and the alt right social justice warriors. Initech Oct 2017 #2
So, far, that's what I've confirmed. Baitball Blogger Oct 2017 #4

information. The MSM is too busy trying to have the latest "update" so they can get their ratings and website visits higher.

Simultaneously an ISIS convert but totally not a terrorist

Simultaneously Antifa/liberal/whatever but totally no political agenda

Their rock solid undeniable proof was that his female friend's ex-husband might have shared anti-Trump memes on social media.

And of course the Asian girlfriend and country music victims prove he's not a white supremacist or even a conservative.

Whitey McPaleface will always get a benefit of a doubt, without exception. From conservatives who are absolutely 100% certain about everything in life except matters of white males.

Some people's hearts are literally bleeding for America right now.

This would be a perfect example of how events in the US are exploited for political gain.

BTW, these idiots think the hard left is represented by CNN news. They still haven't discovered MSNBC!

we are still waiting for law enforcement to find a motive, but this asshat targeted a country music event instead of some general fair or gathering, such as the Seafair parade or Mardi Gras, or something that a wide variety of people would have attended.

and that generally suggests that Republicans are targeted.

I guess it's a secret that there are country bands out there that have very wide appeal.

If they say there was, demand they show the reliable source. If it isn't rock solid, say so, and say this shows they have no idea what is reliable. Use it to cast doubt on that person's reliability all the time. If they don't come up with a reliable source, then remember this, and use itr against them the next time they bullshit. Build up the picture of how useless they are.

We came to agreement that the Mueller investigation would help expose who is spreading false news, and for what reason.
