    Somehow I think the reaction to this will be totally different than it was when a gunman killed Melissa Hortman and wounded John Hoffman.

      The main difference will be that right wingers forgot about that shooting within a week and they are never going to shut up about this one. The persecution fetish is about to reach new heights.

        I feel like probably they simply had no idea that it happened. Like literally never even saw it once.

        The nature of the media they watch, and the totally backwards-land picture of the world it creates, is hard to really grasp if you haven’t been in it. And, of course, that’s on purpose.

        Like right wingers don’t celebrate when the people they don’t like die.

        Dude, get over your delusions.
