@Sleepyguy saidBeing right, even if true, doesn't justify a campaign of retribution against anyone unwilling to pay proper homage to a white nationalist podcaster.
We didn't "have" to be right. We just were. It was so obviously likely that he was killed for his beliefs that it made your side's early attempts to find some way to blame a right winger ridiculous. I forget which talking head on CNN began speculating that the shot came from some right winger firing a gun in celebration. I mean come on.
And so it turns out we were right, ...[text shortened]... the left (teachers, doctors etc.) made it clear they would cheer on the killing of the rest of us.
@Sleepyguy saidYou might be right but no way of knowing (yet). There's no clear motive currently, despite your confidence in declaring otherwise.

Like a treasure hunt or something?
@no1marauder saidI like more how Jon Stewart tried to appease dear leader.

@Sleepyguy saidJust curious, what where your thoughts about Nancy Pelosi's husband being brutally beaten. With a hammer.
Oh you STILL think there's no clear motive? LOL.

@Mott-The-Hoople saidYou must be projecting; DePape was convicted and sentenced to life in prison for his crimes which were fueled by his belief in right wing conspiracy theories.https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/david-depape-sentenced-life-parole-hammer-attack-paul-pelosi-state-cas-rcna177881
Let’s hear your thoughts? Did republican rhetoric cause this? If so, what?
I think it was a homo sex trist gone bad.

"DePape had for years been repeating a host of far-right conspiracy theories, such as questioning results of the 2020 election and believing that the federal government was controlled by devil-worshipping pedophiles, prosecutors said."
See anything wrong with that statement?
How would prosecutors know this?

@Mott-The-Hoople saidWhat proof do you have of Tyler Robinson's motives but government claims and media reports? None.

But we do have DePape's own testimony admitting his crimes were based on his beliefs in right conspiracy theories.https://6abc.com/post/david-depape-paul-pelosi-attack-trial-testimony/14058304/
@no1marauder saidAlso the guy who killed the senator, her husband and dog in front of her child, and then went to another Democrats house and shot them too. He was a hard right winger with a list of targets.

Nothing he said was bloody offensive in the first place.
@Sleepyguy saidIt seems most obvious that the "motive" involved in offing a social media influencer during his presentation would be to make a scene. To sow chaos and deepen social division.
Oh you STILL think there's no clear motive? LOL.
OK buddy, keep watching for clues.
But I'm admitting this is just a guess, because we don't know.
