He was willing to kill a judge just so he didn’t have to work, is that what I’m understanding?
This guy should be behind bars! He doesn’t seem mentally stable. So are we going to wait until he offs this judge? There is so much evidence in this case!
Must be a Democrat, they seem to be cool with assassinations these days.
I’m still looking for proof that the freak had any affiliation with a democrat? Maybe ask Nick Fuentes???
LMAO the shooter’s boyfriend was a tranny…that’s enough proof.
Are we speaking of the article here or something else??
Same here: LMFAO! Two homos wanting to tranform into lesbos! There’s no way the roommate didn’t know about it what his “lover boy” was up to. If the law can’t get him, hopefully Maga has extra-legal operatives that will.
The shooter was involved with Nick Fuentes, and also a far-right extremist group, all is documented and easy to find information on. They located the roommates socials and it confirms it was not a “boyfriend” nor “tranny.” I understand that fox news and every other spawn of satan is feeding you what the hate in your heart is so desperate to eat, but you’re being fed lies and one day hopefully you live long enough to seek retribution. Denial is a tough thing, I understand.
Denial is tough, you’ll get through it. If you are a tranny as well I’ll pray for you as I am Lance and his bf Tyler. The left is demonizing everyone, it’s really a shame and bad for this Country.
The left is so desperate that they’re sticking with a (not) new technique, just make something up and pretend they’re mad about it
Apparently facts are something you don’t like. It was in the charging documents read to all on every news station. But go ahead with your narrative
and why are you here instead in some antifa page where you definitely belong?
What a hateful heart. I feel sorry for you and your family.
Assassinations and not wanting to work.
Learned everything they know from republicans.
I pray for all the communists and trannies ruining this country; I pray they see the evil in their ways and turn to Christ. I really do pray for them.
You know that’s a lie, so you’ll just yell and repeat it because you don’t have an alternative
go enemata yourself, f**k face
What is Social security claim?
Ask the illegals: somehow, they always manage to get one. Most times, it’s someone else’s Social Security number.
Immigrant ? Legal, illegal? ICE involved?
Wow, with all that they found in his home and what he had in his possession, 50K Sure seems pretty low? This individual is a danger
To society.
People like this lazy ilk are useless eater getovers and would be best permanently erased for societies’ safety and the taxpaying Citizen’s benefit – because they will very likely do what they were prevented from doing later.
Personaly knew two SS-disabilty fraud cases: 1) where a perfectly capable White male, after getting a business degree from Parkside on the GI Bill for 2 years reserve,. “failed to launch” 35 years ago and wound up on social security mental disability in his mid-30s – and died in his early 60s for a 30 year+ free ride run, including a rent controlled apartment. 2) another capable White male, after successfully suing two local businesses for “accidents” on their premises – then later, attempting to claim worker’s comp disability from a major corporation (with a very astute legal division) was caught and fired, then afterwards on a 4th try, succeeded with another “accident” as a muni employee and hit the SS disabilty jackpot and has been fishing, hunting and luxuriating for the last 20 years. Total getover – and proud of it. And the clincher: Both were Democrats – the deceased one, very vocal with an entitlement mindset.
I know MULTIPLE men, between 20 to 60yrs old, that do not/ WILL NOT work who are VERY capable. ALL WANTING DISABILITY! What is going on with our society anymore?!!!
Despite the initial good intentions, the programs ultimately become the problems. They are used to buy votes in the fact that they’ll never be canceled once they’re passed, and any program designed to lighten the load of those who truly deserve it always end up having more than double that amount piling into the cart to ride with them.
Under Trump, Doge is on the case. However, they likely won’t publically announce how many long term SSD fraud cases have been cutoff from their free ride getovers. If Doge is effective, it will compile state level lists of the leeches for Maga units later to erase when/not if the Democrat Communists regain power. Revenge is perfectly justified and even moral under these circumstances. Just as in mathematics, two negatives sum to a positive, in messy human nature, two “wrongs” in fact sometimes do make a “right”. This is one of them.
Just men ???
I think not.
Once upon the time there was a Joe and a KAmala, before them there was a Barack and a Joe.
Why does EVERY story devolve into politics? BOTH sides are fucking wacko!
Normal people are somewhere in between, and this shit gets old fast!
And good luck finding any MEN between 20 and 45. Most are lazy pieces of shit that don’t want to
do any actual work. Bunch of pussies….
Tootsie honey, the equation is quite simple: Hyper-Feminized and Black cultures roided-up since 1985 without crosschecks during a 40+ year bull market of bedroom community prosperity (“good times make people weak”) + Adderall for all White boys with higher IQs who made lazy lower IQ elementary female/betamale teachers actually work + girls favored over boys for two generations (Millennial & Gen Z) + the Bully Blacks elevated far beyond their capacities by fear-compromised Whites = Present day Upside/Down reality.
So tell me Tootz Honey, why should any rational White male between 20-45 participate after being “dismissed” from the start to watch Absurdities being hoisted above him?
Logical solution = sit back, relax, getover all you can, wait and watch society collapse – then join in the partytime in mass chaos. Chaos presents awesome opportunites, with extreme asymetric payoffs.
Whatever, Nick..
He will find a way to get weapons if he posts bond 🤦♀️ this is so scary and sad!!!!
If he has to appear in front of Michel, he would be getting a signature bond.
He should request a change of venue and have commissioner Michel let him go on a signature bond. Of course, Jerkman can always go ahead and yell at him to the point of humiliation, but at this point the defendant will be out and plotting again. Welcome to Kenosha! WTF
