    “There is one person responsible for what happened here and that person is now in custody and will be charged soon and will be held accountable,” he adds

    I’m totally expecting a fair trial now.
    What a relief…

      Apparently he confessed to his dad, and his dad did his best Daniel Jones impression and immediately called the cops.

    Now comes the question of how much do you trust the three letter agencies run by a admitted partisan and law enforcement that has fumbled and spread misinformation throughout the investigation.

        Which is why he’s giving the fucking Medal of Freedom to that dead fascist mouthpiece.

        I fucking hate this country now.

    The markings on the bullets described by authorities indicate that the suspect, Tyler Robinson, was steeped in online culture and included references to the Antifa , or the anti-fascist, movement.

    A fired shell casing was inscribed with “notices bulges OwO what’s this?” - a reference to a “copypasta” - a piece of text that is repeated over and over again, often to troll people online.

    Authorities say one unfired casing had the words “Hey fascist! Catch!” and three down arrows - a common symbol used to represent the anti-fascist movement.

    A second casing had the lyrics to a song “Bella Ciao” inscribed on it. The song honours WWII-era partisans of the Italian resistance who fought Nazi Germany.

    The third unfired casing was inscribed with the words “If you read this, you are gay lmao” - again an apparent reference to online trolling humour.

      From another source about the arrows:

      Law enforcement officials revealed that Robinson inscribed the sequence up arrow, right arrow, down arrow, down arrow, down arrow on casings, which may be a reference to the co-op shooter Helldivers 2. In the game, the code triggers a 500KG bomb, one of the most destructive stratagems available to players.

      So you know that RF Brain worm Jr is going to have a field day with this true or not.

    What kind of horrible parent turns their kid in during THIS administration. The ignorant fools have probably gotten their own son killed.

      It was the right thing to do even though it’s a decision that will weigh on him the rest of his life. This is integrity in action.

        People judging parents doesn’t sit that well with me. Another example is Brian Laundrie’s parents, who did the exact opposite and attracted everyone’s ire for it, as if it was a simple decision to turn in or cover for your homicidal son. Society vs family, where either choice is a failure towards the other side, is the kind of scenario you get snipped over.

    He notes there were inscriptions on bullet casings, including one which read: “Notices bulges owo”.

    There was a comment yesterday maybe in the megathread? Gotta find it.

    Whomever the actual shooter is, y’all better make him a hero like Luigi. Your heroes shouldn’t need strongly defined jawlines.

      Nope. He’s a terminally online edgelord lol. All my bets are on him being a new age white nationalist. Groyper, probably. Fascists always turn on eachother and see violence as a normalized answer to their grievances.
