“Do you know how many transgender Americans have been mass shooters over the last 10 years?” the person asked. Kirk responded, “Too many.”
…The answer is 5.
Do you know how many mass shooters there have been in America over the last 10 years?”
“Counting or not counting gang violence?” Kirk asked.
It’s apparently impossible to know the exact number…but it is in the high hundreds, or even thousands. If you include gang violence, then the number is almost 7000.
These kinds of arguments are so disingenuous they are practically lies, in and of themselves.
His final moments were trying to paint trans people as a dangerous group, presumably to radicalize people against them, while also minimizing how bad gun violence is.
Truly a patriot. /s
Also trying to turn the question racist. Responding with “including gang violence” is some, not so subtle, dog whistling “blame minorities”
Meanwhile most of these fuckers are white males that go around shooting up schools and other places
He frames his answers as accusations. It’s not disingenuous, it’s deliberate fingerpointing bigotry.
And the % of victims under 18 years old? Crazy place to live.
Do they know what caliber it is? They don’t seem to share it in the article…
a high-powered, bolt-action rifle
This is most likely a standard deer rifle.
“I assume, discarding it would be part of the plan to escape. To carry a long rifle. It surprises me the person abandoned it,” Chittum said. “It certainly makes it easier. It’ll have biological evidence and the trace itself will produce leads.”
I’d be shocked if this wasn’t:
- recently picked up at a gun show
- paid for in cash
- ammo paid for in cash, or self-manufactured somewhere nowhere close to the incident
- thoroughly cleaned
- never handled by the marksman with hands uncovered
The plan was always to leave the gun. That’s just good opsec in this situation.
That’s just good opsec in this situation.
Hegseth sweats nervously
If the shooter did good opsec, then Hegseth certainly wasn’t the shooter.
It’s not that he’s nervous - he’s got the shakes because he misplaced his nips
Did they find any Italian pastries?

Mannlicher- Carcanno. But you can’t say mannlicher in 2025.
as well as a $100,000 reward for information leading to an arrest
Keep in mind that the person to sold Luigi to the police has not gotten a single cent.
“I can tell you this was a targeted event,” said Robert Bohls, the top FBI agent in Salt Lake City.
Amazing what the FBI can find out. I would never have thought this could have been targeted!
Comment honoring Melissa Hortman
Even better: a bait and switch.
“Once again, we have lost a true American patriot. Assassinated in cold blood by traitors waging WAR on not just our country, but our way of life and freedom. Our voices will not be silenced! They took one of our best and brightest, most outspoken voices of reason—for doing nothing more than daring to threaten their radical agenda. They will not take another, so help us God. Never forget 2025. Never forget Melissa Hortman.”
Beautiful
They work better than those low powered rifles.
