Description of Michigan shooter's family is concerning

This excerpt from the article showing his Mom's letter to TFG is telling. -

Jennifer Crumbley, 43, worked as a real estate broker in the Oxford area, but her staff bio has now been taken down. Although James’ online presence demonstrates a preference for the Seattle Seahawks, his posts were not overtly political.

Jennifer, however, in November 2016, penned an open letter to President-Elect Donald Trump, which she posted on her blog.

“Mr. Trump, I actually love that you are a bad public speaker because that showed sincerity, and humility,” she wrote. “You changed your mind, and you said ‘so what.’ You made the famous ‘grab them in the pussy’ comment, did it offend me? No. I say things all the time that people take the wrong way, do I mean them, not always. Do I agree that you should of [sic] shown your tax returns? No. I don’t care what you do or maybe don’t pay in taxes, I think those are personal and if the Gov’t can lock someone up over $10,000 of unpaid taxes and you slipped on by, then that shows the corruption.”

Crumbley went on to tell Trump that she hoped he would “really uncover the politicians for what I believe they really are,” and that he might “shut down Big Pharma, make health care affordable for me and my MIDDLE CLASS family again.” She was in favor of Trump’s long-promised border wall, and noted that she was “not racist” because her grandfather “came straight off the boat in Italy.”

“As a female and a Realtor, thank you for allowing my right to bear arms,” the letter continued. “Allowing me to be protected if I show a home to someone with bad intentions. Thank you for respecting that Amendment.”

She complained about parents at other schools where the “kids come from illegal immigrant parents,” and “don’t care about learning.”

It was signed, “A hard working Middle Class Law Abiding Citizen who is sick of getting fucked in the ass and would rather be grabbed by the pussy.”

If you're "sick be being f'cked in the ass"...why do you keep voting for a supporting the people who are doing it to you?

There is just so much cognitive dissonance among these folks, I don't know how they do it.

Maybe he's a temp worker but he changes jobs at an unusual rate.

And the video of them offering their son $100 if he can eat a spoonful of horseradish sauce and not change his facial expression looks like pure child abuse.

This woman struggles to write coherently.

This is an amazing logic leap-

"Do I agree that you should of [sic] shown your tax returns? No. I don’t care what you do or maybe don’t pay in taxes, I think those are personal and if the Gov’t can lock someone up over $10,000 of unpaid taxes and you slipped on by, then that shows the corruption.”


So is Trump corrupt or are the folks at IRS corrupt for not nailing him?

No wonder her kid was so fucked up.

She thought that Trump was actually going to do anything to "Big Pharma", now don't get me wrong, the influence that pharmaceutical company lobbyists have on Congress is ridiculous, however their control stems mainly from Republican policies and Trump, while he talked a big game, does not give one squirt of piss about the lives of average Americans.

She really shows how fundamentally ignorant and stupid she is when she actually thinks that Trump has done or would do anything to protect the average person whether through legislation against the abuses of the pharmaceutical industry or anything having to do with the rights of gun owners OR public safety measures related to gun violence.
