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.

been following Nick Fuentes on/off for awhile. the vile shit regularly spewing from him about Kirk is unhinged. it's reminiscent of what leftists do to each other about "not being left enough" and purity testing, but a whole another level with fascist violence/rhetoric + calls to violence added. it's so bad people in the trump admin and trump allies are openly scared of fuentes groypers.

i think you're 100% right. the shooter is easily a chud who is pissed/disillusioned with the trump admin + trump allies

Wait really? I thought the piece of shit had dinner with Trump

fascism is all about hatred at its most animalistic level. that means they hate themselves, they hate their "friends", and they're filled with white-hot rage 24/7. so long as that rage stays safely pointed at women and minorities and leftists, they can (and must!) work together. but a coalition whose points of unity are so purely emotional is very tenuous. their lives aren't getting any better, obviously. they propelled trump to victory, and they all want something in return. he can't make them all happy all the time, so all it takes is for the wrong chud to have a bad day at the wrong time
