Bullshit
“Family member” narc’ed.
Important lesson everyone, listen up: someone will always narc. It’s a surveillance society in a heavily propagandized world. Your right to remain silent is all you get.
Now we’ll see if they pay the bounty.
he called his dad and confessed. his dad advised him to turn himself in. he said he’d rather commit suicide. his dad called his youth pastor to talk him down, who called the US marshals to secure him. I feel bad for the dad… that’s got to be a genuinely horrible situation to navigate.
Youth pastor calling the marshals man. Cold.
Would Jesus narc on you? Friend, he would not. Mostly because he didn’t exist but still. As a character that is not consistent.
So does the youth pastor get the reward tax free?
Is there a reward? Wouldn’t it be backhanded if the youth pastor donated the reward for catching the shooter to some Kirk cause.
If the shooter turns themselves in, do they get the money? OwO
I didn’t even consider the reward. I wonder if the dad will get it.
“How’d you get rich”. I raised my son wrong
Jesus did actually exist. He was like a guy that was really there at some point
Not the dude in the Bible, because the things he’s supposed to have done are impossible. So probably there was some dude that did or said some things and then got a bunch of folklore attached to him. A certain amount of the jesus story comes from contemporaneous myths - IIRC, a virgin birth was a common one.
So probably there was some dude that did or said some things and then got a bunch of folklore attached to him.
Yeah. Likely Osiris. Almost all of the Jesus stories are taken from earlier solar deity “myths” and put into 1CE Judea. Like a graduate school production of Richard III in space with cigarettes.
JudeaPalestineFTFY
that’s certainly a take that most secular scholars of early christianity would disagree with but do you
True, true. However scholars of Christianity kind of have a bias there, dunnthey.
[citation needed]
To clarify, the guy was real, the myths aren’t.
This was all proven in that documentary we all saw, The Life of Brian.
Jesus wouldn’t narc on you, but he might tell you to surrender yourself to police. no murder is one of the Ten Commandments. this is how Catholic confession works, at least (I am not Catholic.)
I suspect the kid consented to the pastor calling the marshals, after deciding to turn himself in. otherwise how would they know where to find him that quickly?
From the pastor calling them in hushed tones from the back room?
I dunno. Agree its a terrible situation.
I’m Catholic. When I was a kid I had to go to confessional and like most Catholic kids we just made shit up cause I mean come on, no kid is keeping tally of all the stuff they’ve done. So we’d just lie to the priest and try to one up each other with “stuff we did”. The priest never told our parents or teachers.
And it was always “three Hail Marys and a Glory Be” and you’re golden. What a weird ritual.
I’m not Catholic, but the confession is one of those things that, if done right, might actually be very valuable. The ability to talk to someone about the bad stuff you did, get it off your chest, get some sort of closure so you can let it go, without any risk of getting ratted out to the authorities, could be very good for your mental health, I imagine.
And if everybody does it, there’s no stigma attached to it. So if you go and have nothing to say, you go to cover for the people who do have something.
Though modern therapy can serve the same role, of course.
What’s the most unhinged confession you and your friends did?
one of my friends made up a wild story about encasing his sisters pet hamster in concrete after she found his porn stash and told his parents. He didn’t have a sister, he didn’t even have a pet hamster.
the one I remember I told was that I stole $100 from my moms purse and used it to buy pogs and cigarettes and beer. I was 10.
That’s hilarious! I don’t know how the priest is able to keep a straight face as the confessions keep getting wilder and wilder!
Genuinely, WWJD is an interesting thought exercise here.
Without really digging for it, my first guess would be “repent and sin no more.” I imagine less turning oneself in to the cops, and more directly asking forgiveness of the ones you wronged. There wouldn’t really be a “setting it right” for such an act though.
That’s where I can’t imagine where things would really go. The feebs would definitely involve themselves anyway, even on the razor slim chance the aggrieved did not.
As much as we very much disagreed (to put it gently) with this hateful brainwashing crusade and are maybe glad to be rid of a prominent source of it, it is still not the way of Christ to be another’s executioner.
I’ll be honest, I’m struggling here. On one hand Kirk was causing a lot of harm through pursuading the worst sides of people under the guise of “logic.” His individual capacity for further harm has been neutralized (“martyr” narrative aside), and that feels like a positive.
But in the end, I don’t want to celebrate murder. I wish it never came to this and people had enough sense to have just ignored him entirely. The fact that so many people find this ideology appealing and we’ve gotten this deep demonstrates a moral decay of our civilization, and in the end he was slain by the monster he and his ilk helped to unleash on us all.
Heh sorry for the rant as a reply. Just thinking out loud I guess.
Not really.
The dad caused the problem when he suggested his son turn himself in like a bitch and a pussy.
Law enforcement are just state-sponsored goons at this point. They exist to “keep order,” not protect innocents.
An increasingly large number of people don’t care if they get caught afterwards.
That’s a super-weird metric, but okay.
How does that even get counted?
That makes sense. I was just thinking about the plan ally these people have. Shooting someone like this is a bad idea. If your plan is shoot and run, they are going to have cameras. Do something remote where you can first run to another country and the “shoot”, or play the plausible deniability card and do get caught.
“my drone malfunctioned while varying a very heavy camera and it just fell on him” is more believable than “well I was just standing there with my rifle, and when I saw what happened through my scope I jumped from a roof and ran because I was afraid of getting blamed for it”
$100,000 bounty I’d give up my piece-of-shit cousin
I’d give up my just cousin for free if he’d gone on Jan 6.
If you don’t want the $100.000, PM me.
-
They’ll probably never see the reward. The McDonalds employee who turned in Luigi hasn’t seen a penny.
-
This guy killed a fascist spreading hate and violence towards minorities. He was literally in the middle of it when he was killed. I’m not sure the “piece-of-shit” label fits.
-
I would not. Not even for ypur cousin, especially not for popping some douchelord.
How was it engraved? Did the guy own some sort of engraving rig? How did he fit all this text on a bullet?
yeah the one was really long.
They say “casings” but they said that there was only one shot? I am confused.
I’m assuming they found other rounds that were engraved.
The other inscriptions on the fired casings:
“notices bulges”
capital “O-W-O what’s this?”
Inscriptions on the three unfired casings:
“hey fascist!” “catch!” Up arrow symbol, right arrow symbol, and three down arrow symbols.
“Oh Bella Ciao, Bella Ciao, Bella Ciao, Ciao, Ciao.”
“If you read this, you are gay LMAO.”
Also:
A Wall Street Journal report, citing an ATF bulletin, had previously said the casings were “engraved with expressions of transgender and antifascist ideology.” The purported transgender symbols were later understood to relate to markings identifying the manufacturer.
Sorry, there were multiple fired casings?
Just one fired casing, three unfired per the article.
They found the gun, no? So maybe they found the ammo as well
Right, but this says “fired casings” as in multiple fired casings. Wasn’t there only one shot fired?
As I understand it’s actually three unfired casings.
Is it at all possible that they were interpreting the “bulges” thing as trans related? Not to say that it is, but it seems more likely than the TRN thing.
This says that the “sequence of arrows” was interpreted as a transgender symbol.
Now we know that the sequence of arrows was “up, right, down, down, down”
…that’s the strategem code for the 500kg bomb in helldivers 2.
The ATF interpreted a video game reference as a transgender symbol…
Edit: another claim I’m seeing, quote from snopes:
Some users online claimed officials had misinterpreted “TRN,” an engraving found on ammunition produced by Turan Ammunition, a Turkish company, as “transgender ideology.”
This is a more logical mistake to make but is also an embarrassing and irresponsible mistake from the ATF if true.
I’m surprised they didn’t interpret the three arrows as antifa, they’re so fucking incompetent.
I mean I could almost see that? Helldivers is kinda a satire on the american brand of fascism so it could be argued its an anti-fascist peace of media. But that’s a stretch to say the least.
But my real issue with this is that federal investigators saw something they had absolutely no clue what it is and called it a transgender symbol. Its an incredible amount of bias in a particularly very bigoted way.
Reminds me of a lyric from The Clash - “taking off his turban, they said, ‘is this man a jew?’” They see something unknown to them and just assign it to the marginalized group they have a preconceived notion of being bad.
Ah and here I was hoping for the konami code
Yeah, missed opportunity but hey. Kids have their own things.
The ATF interpreted
the atf interpreted a 14 inch shoelace with a loop in it as an automatic rifle. they can suck any one of my defective buttholes
embarrassing and irresponsible mistake from the ATF
Oh that’s kinda been their MO for as long as I can remember. It’s kinda their motto. Instead of educating anyone, they routinely do things like try to preach the horrific danger of detachable magazines as the dork tries to insert it backwards.
It’s also a straight up meme that they’ll conduct some half assed raid where they shoot someone’s dog and go “Whoops. Wrong address.”
They know less about firearms than your average airsofter or tactical gamer, but they’re an authoritarian arm on “regulating” the things so they’re usually the first to jump to wild, illiterate conclusions.
I think socialist gun owners and insufferably right wing gun nuts could probably high five over beers when it comes to their mutual sheer lack of respect for the ATF. Lol
Doubt. You cant trust anything these cunts say
A Wall Street Journal report, citing an ATF bulletin, had previously said the casings were “engraved with expressions of transgender and antifascist ideology.” The transgender symbols were later understood to relate to markings identifying the manufacturer.
And a third unfired case read: “If you read this, you are gay LMAO.”
FBI director concludes speech with “Rest now, my brother, we have the watch, and I’ll see you at Valhalla”
Reality is satire
“I’ll see you in Valhalla”
Obvious Nazi dogwhistle is obvious.
Nazis are obsessed with Norse mythology.
This is true and as I am familiar with Norse mythology neither of them are eligible to go there.
A lot of the far right in fact.
He did not seriously say the valhalla line, did he? Please tell me that was actual satire?
Who is this trans-ideology ammunition manufacturer?
Is trans ideology even a thing? I thought it was just people trying to live authentic lives?
Probably Turan - you can see that “TRN” is stamped onto their bullets.
Is trans ideology even a thing?
That’s called a Linux subreddit
I thought it was just people trying to live authentic lives?
It is
But fascists are trying to genocide us and will use any tool available to them
It should also be noted that “transgender ideology” is a term coined for and used in anti-trans political messaging to falsely equate identity with politics, which is a way to frame transgender identity as a political choice rather than an innate identity.
“Rest now, my brother, we have the watch, and I’ll see you at Valhalla”
Why is a Hindu telling a Christian that he’ll see him in Valhalla?
…The Aristocatts!
“Use the Force, Harry Potter” - Jean Luc Picard.
It was Gandalf of The Round Table who said it.
Forget it - he’s rolling
Fascists of all stripes have a weakness for Norse mythology.
Yeah, a weakness and no actual knowledge of Norse mythology. Some dumb fascists getting popped on a stage isn’t something Odin or Freyja gives a fuck about. They only get to Folkvangr or Valhalla if they die in combat. Most of these cowards will piss themselves if they ever see a battlefield.
Yes, they do, sadly. I’ve loved Norse mythology since I was a kid but now I can wear a tee shirt with a Norse reference on it without people thinking I’m a fascist. 😞
Yeah I feel you. I’m fascinated with the early Indo-European past but so are heaps of fascists.
Something about an ever flowing cauldron of pork stew and a one eyed raven.
Fun fact: christofascists are why most of Norse mythology is lost, everything that couldn’t be recast as part of the Christian world was violently suppressed
FBI director is a nutcase
The FBI director is mistaken, no nazis in Valhalla.
As if Valhalla would open its doors to these pussies.
Hey can someone tell me what the fuck “transgender ideology” means? Because to me that phrase makes absolutely zero sense
TRN. That’s what was on the bullet. Which is a manufacturing mark.
Other things written on the bullets imply that the shooter idolizes Nick Fuentes, and is, in fact, somthing called a Groyper.
As a note, Nick Fuentes hated Charlie Kirk.
Honestly though, it’s reasonable for them to think it was trans related, considering Charlie’s rhetoric - we can’t expect the FBI to know what bullets looks like.
Just right-wing drivel to discredit a minority they don’t understand. There’s not much to understand beyond that because them they don’t understand it themselves.
It’s when they tell you to install Linux and put a lift kit on your 01 Tacoma.
“Transgender ideology” is the outrageous radical belief that transgender people are people and deserve to be able to live their lives.
What?! When did they start doing this!?
Sometime prior to 2300BCE
Reported
^ O GAWD. This one has been indoctrinated.
I’m trans and I’ve yet to have anyone explain it to me.
Ahh Trump cleared that up today. “Transgender for everybody,” it’s one of the left’s demands. I guess it’s like abortions on demand, but like, everybody is given a gift bag of HRT at their next PCP visit. Here’s some estrogen and some narcan, go slay in today’s world girl.
Inscriptions on a fired casing read: “notices bulges” capital “O-W-O what’s this?”
Imagine having to say that at a press conference.
*getting to say that at…
But… What is “O-W-O”?
I think Morty from Rick and Morty makes that face quite often if you want an animated rendition lol
It’s supposed to be a face. Don’t know the origin but it got popular through text roleplay shit, though folks say it phonetically now too.
Oh. Thanks!
It’s in the same family as UwU
So to sum up, Charlie Kirk was downplaying gun violence in the US, and using a racist dogwhistle to do so, WHILE standing under a giant fucking “prove me wrong” banner, when he was shot with a bullet labeled “OWO what’s this?” by a Mormon cop’s kid from Utah (ie, whiter than raisins in potato salad).
That is an actual fucking series of events that actually fucking happened. We’ve gone past “the onion is reality” to “this would be too on the nose if it was an onion article and yet it’s somehow reality”.
this is very besides the point, but “whiter than raisins”?? i’m scared to ask, but how white are your raisins, americans?
edit: after further research, it seems like american raisins are not white either, in which case, wtf is this sayingNot whiter than raisins, whiter than “[putting] raisins in potato salad.” It’s a reference to cooking. Also, I’ve never seen anyone do thay and I’m from the US south, so…pretty white I guess.
I’d rather sandpaper a crocodile’s asshole in a phone booth
They said “whiter than raisins in potato salad.” It’s a meme saying that white people put raisins in potato salad.
There’s a book by street lit author Quan Millz called Becky Put Raisins in the Potato Salad. This is actually where I heard about it and I was like “ew! Raisins in potato salad??”
I’ve never seen a potato salad with raisins in it. Sounds gross.
The writers are really forcing it this season…
I’m curious if they spelled it out or just said the word owo
Until it appears in court, it’s not evidence, it’s speculation or lies.
Loving how this headline makes it seem like engraving bullets is some sort of rite of passage for gun owners.
So this suggests they probably were on the left or at least wanted people to think that.
It suggests that not nearly enough people think to themselves, upon reading it, “How the fuck do you fit all of that on a fucking bullet? Bullshit.”
It does sound kinda long but I assume they’ll have to release images eventually. If it’s a lie, it’s not a very well-planned one.
I don’t know if this is planned or sheer incompetence and playing telephone.
But what I do know is, if it is planned, then either:
- They care mostly about the immediate reaction to the news — trying to stoke the fire of stochastic violence. If the truth comes out in a few days, that’s outside the window they are hoping to create a reaction within.
- Or maybe they expect the truth, being a non-event, will not be reported by the same outlets that spread the rumors. They outlets will simply drop it and not report on it any more, but the audience will be left with the idea that the kid was a secret trans activist.
Why? They flood the zone and it’ll be forgotten before long
No, but your reply suggests that you might be a bigot.
What a weird thing to say. How was anything I wrote bigoted?
It suggests the fascists are lying to the media.
Possible. We’ll see. Supposedly they caught the guy so we’ll see what evidence there is and what his beliefs are at some point.
Supposedly Luigi is the guy who shot that evil Healthcare corpo but they still haven’t managed to find anything convincing
Can we find the person who, for no apparent reason, interpreted manufacturers markings as apparent ‘trans ideology’ and ask him wtf that was supposed to accomplish? I mean if you don’t know what some markings mean, aside from blatant bias is there any possible way to get to ‘trans ideology’ from manufacturers markings? Are they using male/female icons? Emojis? Printing them in rainbow colors?
When did “mind your own fucking business” become an ideology?
EDIT: the misinterpretation may actually be a series of arrows related to a Helldivers 2 move. Up, right, down, down, down. There is an anti fascist icon of three downward arrows. I’m guessing the idiots thought the other two arrows looked like those astrological gender icons and decided that must mean trans somehow.
TRN. It’s the manufacturers code for a Turkish company called Turan. That’s what I heard at any rate.
Identifying that as trans is just rank incompetence. Anyone that stupid would be fired in a sane world. Under our fascist regime, new FBI director incoming.
It sounds like someone had a theory and Patel went off before any research could be done. Not to defend the fbi but it sounds like they did what they are supposed to it’s Patel who keeps fucking up
I’m not a gun person but my understanding is that no one who’s looked at bullets could mistake a manufacturer’s imprint. Where it is and what it looks like preclude it being anything else. It would be like confusing a barcode for a brandname.
Talking about the engravings.
Ah, yep, fair enough. That is definitely more understandable as a preliminary theory that Patel should not have been mouthing off about yet.
Anyone that stupid would be fired in a sane world.
Kash fired every above that intelligence level. Sycophants and dipshits only from now on.
Made the joke yesterday that it probably said Remington. Its fucking hilarious that my joke was so close to the truth lol.
That’s some pretty impressive engraving.
Here we fucking go
And a third unfired case read: “If you read this, you are gay LMAO.”
Fuckin’ lawl
“Did it for the lulz” old meme checks out.
