Maybe you should take this moment to reflect on why your instincts in this case were so obviously incorrect? Why your initial responses were so incredibly wide of the mark? Do you think your media diet has anything to do with that? How will you change to do better going forward? Isn't it interesting that when actual money is on the line, you can embrace facts?

Do better.

Or why he was so fucking confident in his correctness?

This entire board needs to "DO better." On Saturday, this Board immediately (before any facts were known) pounced on the fact that because the lawmakers were Dems that MAGA was responsible. However, as facts started to come out, early indicators suggested the shooter might be a Dem (appointed by Walz; wife worked for Walz; "No Kings" flyers in his car). It now appears this is not the case as even more facts were learned. Yes, I should have been more reserved in my earlier opinion but I'm certainly not going to accept a condescending lecture from you - Mr. All Knowing.

At this point we're standing in a circle and beating a dead horse since no new information has been released. As I said earlier, I don't recall lengthy threads on this Board after left inspired killings.

Those were not early indicators of anything. Don't blame us because you fell for bad propaganda without even lifting a finger to see if it could be true.
 
"State Rep. Kristin Bahner said that the man who allegedly killed the top Democrat in the Minnesota House also visited her home early Saturday."

In between the two shootings, investigators said Boelter visited Bahner's Maple Grove home and knocked on her door, but she was away with her family on vacation at the time. He also went to the home of New Hope state Sen. Ann Rest, but encountered police and left the scene."

Stop making excuses for your behavior.

That has to be terrifying for her and her family. To think what could have happened if they weren't out of town.
 
I for one find a kind of amazing how Luigi allegedly killed a wealthy CEO and it was front page news for 3 weeks, but a radical right-wing
Ultra Maga religious nut job guns down two Democratic politicians and their family and their family dogs in their homes and the news coverage has virtually disappeared.

You’d think the crimes alone would be enough to keep it in the news longer, but the fact that he so easily posed as police (with a matching vehicle!) and even fooled actual police would warrant more discussion. There are people who will take notice of that (as well as ICE tactics) with an eye towards something potentially far worse.
 
AI is still on it...Grokking.

"Evidence suggests Vance Luther Boelter, who killed a Minnesota representative, was likely a right-wing extremist. He was a Trump supporter, attended conservative rallies, and registered as a Republican in 2004. His targets were Democratic lawmakers, with a list of 70 Democrats found in his vehicle, indicating a political motive against the left. While he was appointed to a board by a Democratic governor, this was professional, not political. No credible evidence supports him being a left-wing extremist. The attack aligns with right-wing motivations, though legal proceedings may clarify further."

Gotta agree with @superrific -- those few facts were not early indicators of anything.

They were indicators of a very strong need for denial that one of their own did not just actually murder a political opponent, thus pulling back the curtain on the Machiavellian toxicity, lies, latent violence, and anti-democratic subtext of right wing media and how it radicalizes the mobs of dipshits that consume it like corn flakes every morning.

There was video of Luigi. It was a more dramatic hit, as it took place on the street in NYC. Luigi was attractive and something of a heart-throb.
