The Violence Is The Point

What ensued was the largest manhunt in state history. This is a foreseeable outcome in a fascist state full of politicians that promote violence at every turn.

    A police officer "had a hunch" where the perp would strike next, and observed him shoot from outside the house of the victim, but didn't immediately apprehend the gunman??

    I'm kinda missing the forest for trees here but Praetorian is a great name for a security company. As we all know the Praetorian guards were famous for keeping their charge alive and not backstabbing them over pay raises.

    It took me a week to work up the guts to watch your analysis of the situation. I knew Melissa Hortman personally and lived with her an Mark for about a month in 2018. This has been a rough week, especially seeing their deaths turned into a conspiracy theory or ignored. These are scary times indeed.

    We should only elect childless cat lady’s into power. Maybe they are the only ones that can act on behalf of the people and for what’s right without fear of threats.

    within the first 9 minutes she goes on to talk about how the right promotes violence and doesn't condemn it that's fair enough. And the left does the exact same thing look at Luigi he is literally a hero to the left atleast the right didn't turn this guy into a hero they deny his political affiliation which he is obviously rightwing. and then she gets mad at the charged language like Marxist not meaning anything to the right and using it as a weapon ok totally valid but again the left does the same thing if not worst with fascist and racism

    Even though the idea that Tim Walz is behind these shootings is ridiculous and shouldn’t be dignified with a response, am I naive to think Tim Walz, or any politician for that matter, is above ordering a Mafia-style hit on someone who crossed them?

    I'm getting really conspiratorial about this one and that's not usually like me. Tim Walz is the one Trump is scared of, he's getting massive crowds and support, they can't find any dirt on and suddenly a double murder in his state? Naming him? And the murderer is connected to Eric Prince?

    People had been saying for WEEKS to watch out for a false flag.
