The suspect's brother, Ryan Card, said in a text message to CNN that the family has "helped law enforcement in anyway possible" and that they are urging Robert to turn himself in.

He would not tell CNN if his brother has responded to the familys requests.

"The police have been given anything that we can offer to facilitate their efforts," he said

I'd be more comfortable with that statement if "everything" appeared more often than "anything". Comfort level would skyrocket if he had used the word at all.

The GOP's new speaker Mike Johnson is already out blaming mass shootings on the cultural revolution of the 60's, blaming no fault divorces becoming legal, and schools embracing the teaching of evolution.

Maybe some of our local conservative users of gamefaqs can explain what the fuck this man is talking about in more sensible terms. He sounds like a drunk uncle at Thanksgiving to me.

edit: Apparently he made these comments while preaching a sermon in 2016, although I doubt he has changed stance much since then.

They always are.

They're pushing the narrative that the shooter and the ID photo of him aren't the same person.

They always pull this gaslighting shit. I remember them claiming David Hogg was much older, and a criminal, and was being paid to pretend he was a high school student and a bunch of other bullshit.

It has the opposite effect if you're a Republican. The more idiotic you are the more people will flock to you.

I shouldn't be angry at conservatives for doing exactly what they normally do, but I just can't help it.

This dude is the speaker of the house and blames video games or some other arbitrary shit for shootings before, you know, more guns than people.

so, lets remove the non starter of abolishing the 2nd cause that is never going happen.

Instead put in a federal gun license, use the license to carry programs as your baseline with multi hour mandatory safety training. All previous LTC owners are grandfathered in, and the license is required to purchase and own firearms.

Also, no using a panel to determine if I need a gun, its still a personnel choice, but one I train and practice to keep.

from there, you start looking at removing the stigma from mental health, and adding stronger red flag laws.



Let's be real with ourselves here.... nothing meaningful in regards to guns and gun violence is going to happen any time soon.

This is straight up WBC shit just replace "allowing gays to exist" with the other stuff.

I'm sure he feels that way about gays too, though.

This combined with what we know of his social media activity seems to read to me as a dude who was once a decent guy that got his brain melted by right wing propaganda. He's not the first and unfortunately won't be the last.


That's what was running through my mind the entire time reading it. Like the dude who was in the military with him in the early 2000s. Like, yeah he probably WAS like that back then. But just getting beat over the head more and more and more and more with right wing propaganda to the point where your commander and chief is telling you there is an attack coming from within the country by these specific type people and they're trying to take the country away from YOU can really fuck with people who were essentially bread to believe what their superiors told them.

I 100000000% guarantee he has not. You don't go from "hippies in the 60s and evolution is what causes mass shootings!" to.... NOT that without a radical change in your entire character.

They know as well as we do that every time this happens, it's almost an absolute certainty it was one of them, so they're always VERY quick to start the lying and deflecting. And course since it's already been confirmed for this guy, they're even more desperate to spread misinfo and conspiracy theories... anything to try to prevent the more reasonable among them (if such people exist) from asking, "Are we the baddies?"

Yeah, blaming hearing aids is really going off the deep end. As someone who wears hearing aids I'd like to say I'm offended, but I'm already offended by everything else so I guess I just add it to the pile.
Hopefully that shit doesn't gain any traction. Last thing we need is folks wearing hearing aids being accosted by loser chuds. Thankfully though, they've gotten so small that they are very hard to see.
