If the same murder happened in 72 days, these things happening now wouldn't be happening until 72 days from now.

disagree.

some other shit would have been an opportunity sooner than that. or they'd just make something up or they'd just do it.

I mean, sure there would probably be an event earlier than 72 days later. It could have been a different event though.

Let’s not forget this event had nothing to do with transgender people. They were going to do this regardless.

As I said. They had plans already. They were just waiting for a spark. Any spark.

We're spending a lot of time here trying to figure out if it was the toaster or coffee maker which started the fire while ignoring the gas leak. At a certain point the situation becomes so volatile a fart can set it off.
