Here’s the difference, I can unequivocally state that I don’t in any way condone nor support violence from any individual on the right. I’m curious if you can do the same on the left. I routinely see it excused and justified.

Antifa is a loosely organized group of like minded individuals. There is no official membership, it’s an ideology welcome to any who share this world view. They develop tactics to intimidate and silence their opponents and help each other cover illegal and immoral behavior. This can be hitting people in the head with bike locks, throwing cups full of cement, lighting buildings on fire, and other destructive behavior. They wear black bloc and cover their faces so as not to be easily identifiable. They claim to be the good guys “fighting Nazis”, but really they’re a bunch of thuggish larpers with social behavior conditions and a lack of morals. I have hours and hours of video footage of Antifa individuals perpetrating violent and destructive acts against those they disagree with. They lean heavily into the untrue sentiment that they aren’t an organization as it allows them to side step any kind of legal accountability. In reality they operate sort of like sleeper cells in different regions protesting, rioting, stoking the flames to silence their political opponents. They’re scum.

The left loves Antifa because they can use it as cover for illegal behavior. It’s convenient that you continue to claim Antifa doesn’t exist, yet you all coordinate with each other in breaking the law. Hard to coordinate with something that doesn’t exist.

I mean his DNA was found on the gun, there’s a slew of text messages, handwritten notes, and video evidence showing that it was him, but I suppose a Republican could have broken into his house, stolen his DNA, planted incriminating messages, and borrowed his clothing. At this point we really just don’t know, anything is possible.

“He’s talking about hatred towards the Right, not the Left”

I feel like we have a pretty definitive understanding of his motivations. This is directly from Tyler when discussing why he did it, “I had enough of his hatred. Some hate can’t be negotiated out.” Where is the ambiguity in this?
- Comment on I Got This Right, Right? 4 weeks ago:
What are your reasons for thinking he was on the Right?
My understanding is that everyone who has publicly spoken about him has indicated that while he was raised in a Republican family, he himself held strong Left views. His friends/classmates have indicated he had become very vocal about this and regularly got into arguments over it. He was in a relationship with a trans individual which is a decidedly Left behavior. More than that he murdered a Republican poster boy because of his ideology (as indicated by Tyler himself).

Reminds me of that time Bill Maher and other liberals were calling for an economic collapse during Trump’s first term so that he’d take the flak for it and get the boot. Weird how nobody else remembers that right now…

I have pretty extensive experience with someone who is high functioning bipolar. She’s an incredible person, someone I trust immensely and respect the hell out of. She takes the lowest dose possible of an anti-psychotic. She’s great 99% of the time. Every once in a while, for no explicable reason (this is according to her) she drops into a depression where she wants to take her own life. She truly can’t explain why, and once we’ve ridden through it, she’s back to being her wonderful self. I have seen this cycle play out MANY times and have needed to help stabilize her most of those times. She absolutely should not have a gun. Up until the point that she was properly diagnosed as being bipolar she was incorrectly diagnosed as having depression and medicated in accordance with that. She had two suicide attempts during that time. Again, she should ABSOLUTELY not have a gun.
Mental health issues come in many shapes and sizes, but the common thread is a lack of stability and predictable function. In no way is this a judgement of the person, I would choose my person a million times over, but you’re an absolute fool if you think that stability and predictability should not be requisites for gun ownership. All it takes is once.

Pardon me for saying this, but YOU don’t know what the fuck YOU’RE talking about.

Wait, are you suggesting that taking antidepressants, antipsychotics, or having anxiety aren’t forms of mental instability? That’s quite literally the definition. Seems super reasonable that we wouldn’t want someone in that position to own a firearm.
