I think the shooter will turn out to be a chud and here’s my reasoning… (hexbear.net)

So I believe it’s confirmed the shooter used a bolt action 30-06. That’s a straight up hunting rifle, and they clearly had lots of experience with it. Plenty of leftists shoot guns, but it’s exceedingly rare for a leftist to hunt imo, due to living in cities, not wanting to shoot other living beings, etc. Maybe there’s a rare hippy survivalist who does that kind of thing, but they’d probably be using a bow or something. This is in addition to him wearing chud sunglasses and an American flag shirt, assuming those photos really are of the shooter.

This is speculation of course, but it makes a lot of sense in my mind. Your thoughts?

EDIT: I believe the rifle found was something like this https://www.mauser.com/en/MAUSER-98-STD-Expert/80112511 Again, I find it very hard to believe a person would own and use this unless they were an avid deer hunter.

I'm a leftist who hunts, builds guns, and teaches others to do the same. It's hard to oppress someone with a small arsenal, and even harder if they have the skill to use it.
