What were up against folks

I'm on other right leaning Forums monitoring responses to this shooting. Here are some examples.
1. Fuck it only beaners.
2. Bastard son of illegals does the job for us.
3. Damn 19 less toilet scrubbers.
Someone asked in a thread imagine what the parents are going thru tonight, Response "Eating Burritos".
This is the incomprehensible blood thirsty evil we're surrounded by. Interestingly one of these shit hole forums "Liberal Forum.org" (don't be fooled by the name) is of the air this morning.

I don't get it either. I laugh at them and tell them they make as much sense as the Log Cabin Republicans.

IT'S NOT EVEN POSSIBLE TO BELONG TO A GROUP THAT LIKES YOU LESS!!!

How could someone who is gay be republican?

There are plenty of R teachers.

I mean, end of the day, what has the R party every done for working class people, but fuck the over.

But, that is the core of their base at this point.

You get channel all of your energy into hating pretty much everyone and everything while also being the victim while also being the bestest of best christian and patriot.

Its a darn good deal if you are into being a self absorbed and deluded.

posters are Russians and others who are paid to post this kind of sh** just to keep us off balance. So everyone needs to remember this to avoid feeling helpless.

The silent majority is us, not the loudmouths.

But also, the far right has done a great job sucking up a bunch of radio stations in filling it with Spanish speaking versions of right wing talk radio. NPR did a story about it a couple months back. Younger Spanish speaking people can’t understand how their own family members can believe that BS. Its getting piped into their heads. It’s Spanish-speaking hate radio.

Violent crime statistics paint a different picture.

Not that there isn't much room for improvement, but people have always been violent towards each other and things have been worse in the not so distant past.

The crime statistics disagree. There has been a recent tick up in the numbers the last two years but we are still well below historic highs in the early 1990's.

The real question is who wants you to believe things are so horrible now and why?
