Bet it was a MAGAT too.
This comment didn’t age well.
Why?
The guy seems to be a pro-Iran terrorist guy so far. Nothing to do with MAGA at all.
Probably bots… new accounts
There was a 90% chance it was MAGAT, but yes fuck face started a war so now it’s gonna be a 5050 chance it’s MAGA or a pissed off foreigner.
There was not 90% chance of that at all. Did you even read the news in question, or did you just jump to conclusions? But yes, there will probably be many more terrorist events happening as a result of recent actions.

Officers immediately transitioned

Never seen this phrasing before

That’s gonna be a paddlin’ shootin’.
good for them. not now???
They all gender switched? That’s new
My God that’s just might be crazy enough to work!
Thin rainbow line
I mean it’s definitely one way to pump up trans violence statistics

What the fuck. This just doesn’t happen in other countries, at least nowhere near as frequently: 

We need meaningful gun control like other modern democracies have now. The price of inaction is that it might be you or your loved ones next time…

There are many countries on that list with guns and they don’t have this problem. Controlling the guns isn’t the solution because guns are the problem. “News” in America is always an editorial, an informed opinion and not the news so it results in very heated political discourse that is nonstop in America. We need media reform to curb frustration focused media.
They have guns, but they also have much much much stronger gun control laws.

Two issues with this graphic:

  • the data is incorrect, incomplete or misleading: for instance China or India are not included at all despite having multiple mass shootings over the years
  • the data shown shows Finland with a population of 5.6 million next to the US with a population of 349 million
Just two? Now show 2013 - 2025
Yuck ny post. Don’t read the comments for your own sanity
Gunman wearing shirt with Iranian flag design kills 2 and wounds 14 at Texas bar

Authorities say a gunman wearing clothes with an Iranian flag design and the words “Property of Allah” killed two people and wounded 14 at a Texas bar. The FBI said the shooting in Austin is being investigated as a potential act of terrorism. Police shot and killed the man, who had used both a pistol and a rifle early in the shooting early Sunday, a day after the U.S. and Israel launched an attack on Iran. The Department of Homeland Security identified the gunman as 53-year-old Ndiaga Diagne. Multiple people briefed on the investigation say Diagne is originally from Senegal. Austin Mayor Kirk Watson says a fast police response in confronting the gunman saved lives.

AP News

You would like to think so. But I went all the way through it and decided “fuck it, I’ll check the comments.”

A total of 53 comments and >half of them are some right winged nut names kelpfarming just saying over and over about how it and every recent shooter has been liberal. Literally just repeating the same thing over and over every five minutes! Like right now! Go look. He just left a comment the moment I finished the article.

I’ve noticed this on AP. While the platform itself is very unbiased, the comment sections are filled with right wingers spouting insane things.
Thank you, NY post is basically national enquirer at this point. Worse actually.
I’ve stopped hoping for stuff like this to not happen. Instead, I just hope that the shooter was white.

*and cis.

It’s fucking sad man

Ndiaga Diagne, US citizen, from Senegal

Sorry.

Terrible to hear, but it was West 6th street so I can almost garuntee you it was nothing but republicans and tech bros.
