Maybe but the extreme right are mostly cowards that like to use firearms. A stabbing is off brand for right wing MAGAts.
Nope. Remember the 71yo landlord who stabbed his Muslim tenants recently? Mother and her 6yo boy?

They like guns, but it seems most of them accidentally shoot each other/themselves.
But yes, cowards that like guns is true.
Interesting, but that does seems right.
Talking out of my ass here, but I've heard that stabbing is a more personal crime. You need to get closer so it's more likely to be someone that feels deeply threatened or personally hurt.
That might be why we see these antisemitic attacks being stabbings, because the extremists feel deeply terrified and hurt.
I'm not justifying the crime - it's evil and they need to be locked up. But we need to understand where this extremism is coming from if we want to stop it.
You are right in that stabbings feel much more personal psychologically, but I would imagine a murderer would pick the most sure weapon if it was entirely premeditated. It seems as though the guy had no intention of hiding the killing.
I'm sure many of these extremists were either charged with a felony before or involuntarily committed to a mental hospital. Both mean that they are federally banned from guns for life. I think many of these murders are out of strong rage rather than calculated killings, but they'd still probably prefer to use a gun if they had easy access.
How can they say that shit definitively? People often stab because they don't have access to guns, it doesn't mean what they're doing is personal.
