And I'm all out of bubblegum.
First sentence says in general he supports the Christchurch shooter and second says it "is a response to the Hispanic invasion of Texas".
It's just so fecking dumb. The Christchurch shooter was targeting Muslims, this guy was targeting Christians of an entirely different background. Proves once and for all that alt-right is a dangerous terrorist community. Their enemies are plentiful, and they see themselves as warriors in a war. Just like Breivik did.

Also, RE: the "Hispanic invasion", never mind the fact that Texas was part of Mexico before a literal invasion. It's a little bit more complex than that, but most of the nuance exists in the fact that Texas had been increasingly Americanized by the large-scale immigration of English-speaking settlers.

They see “Muslim” as an ethnic group and not a religion.

Obvious false flag but also let’s get behind him!

Within a day or two you can probably go to TopMindsofReddit on Reddit (duh) and find compilations of screenshots from The_Donald before and after the ideology of the shooter was discovered. The narrative will change from "Muslims!" or "Antifa!" or "Mexicans!" to "We as a society need to figure out why this troubled man felt the need to act has he did". Alternatively: false flag.

Retweeting this from the governor of Texas for no particular reason and not because El Paso just had a mass shooting.

As always, Chuds rock up with "credible reports" of Antifa involvement.

Im sure he's mentally deranged and had a bad upbringing. Probably dropped out of school and parents must have divorced aswell.

No, they'll say that Trump will need to double down on the anti-immigrant rhetoric otherwise more people will have to take matters into their own hands.

Of course Trump will just wash over this because the shooter is just your typical white American dude. I thought it was just scum crossing the Southern border that are murdering Americans?

Trump is a bloody hypocrite - he does feck all about this, whilst wasting no time in attacking Khan and London.

Off topic but I've seen countless mentions of the word "chud" on the reddit thread, how or when did this word enter the English lexicon?
1984




it was a **** classic that spawned a sequel:

I imagine “multiple shooters” was the public grabbing their own weapons and adding yet more madness to the maelstrom.
Actually states like Florida or Pennsylvania have more concealed gun licenses than Texas which surprise me but that store had a lot of hispanics and most of them don’t carry guns thats the reason probably why the guy came from dallas to that city.

If only there were more people with weapons in the mall, this could've been avoided

You know what is sad:

There might be some injured that do not seek treatment because of their legal status...

My wit's end
Is it an Islamist shooting or a normal shooting?

That will decide whether we need to increase the anti-terror budget

"Our thoughts and prayers go out to the victims. May God bless you all and God bless America". That is the standard gun loving response. It will be repeated again and again.

Well the guy didn’t commit suicide so he’s even more coward than the others and the good thing is the fact they could learn a bit from him before he gets death penalty

Let's just hope the ones that survived have adequate healthcare insurance.

I guarantee you some folks are going to get this twisted in their heads and say it was an Antifa member who did the shooting.
Oh young Padawan, they (the_donald subreddit) are so far ahead of you:



I don't know what elections he is talking about.
