At least 13 people were injured, five critically in two separate mass shootings at homeless encampments in Minneapolis, Minnesota on Monday. The first shooting took place at East Lake Street and Interstate 35W around 11am local time.
You know who else liked to kill homeless people the fucking nazziiiss
Fuck every single American Republican.
Kilmeade should face charges. Not sure what charges. Not murder, but the equivalent of shouting ‘fire’ in a crowded theater.
Stochastic terrorism. I’m not a lawyer, so… grain of salt
Inciting violence?
He should be shot!
Wait nvm
Here we are guys.
First they came for the immigrant.
Then they came for the homeless.
Youre on the list.
Welp, its happening.
Bloody fucking kansas v.2025: Electric Boogaloo
When do we start rounding up all the Faux execs and the on-air talent and imprison them, and get Faux taken down and not carried anywhere? When do we start doxxing those that support Faux by watching Faux, and start getting THEM fired?
Can I quote myself without sounding arrogant? Brian Killmeade called for homeless to be shot, then retracted.
But he said it. The message has been delivered, and spread. Saying and apologizing is not the same as not saying it.
He needs to be held accountable for this.
He won’t be. But Jimmy Kimmel was taken off the air.
It’s expected of Disney, been supporting fascists since the start.
The redactions never travel as fast or far as the original message. They know this.
It’s along the lines of a quote by Mark Twain
“A lie can travel halfway around the world while the truth is still putting on its shoes.”
Saying and apologizing is not the same as not saying it
I love this. Well said.
Are they gonna lower flags to half mast? Will there be a moment of silence? Are they gonna take responsibility? Will they persecute anyone who cheers on these deaths? Do pigs fly?
These were liberal left wing extremists that did this right? The blood thirsty left who want to kill everyone and regularly threaten people and groups with death, murder and mayhem?
Or am I thinking of another political extremist group?
“all flags are to be raised to DOUBLE-MAST!! THANKS FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER”
Are they gonna lower flags to half mast?
No, but I’m sure they themselves are at full mast after hearing about it.
Move past pointing out hypocrisy. They don’t care. We all know and on the scale of shit they’re guilty of; it seems petty. The institutions are not going to do shit.
Consider what you will be doing about this.
Pointing out hypocrisy is not usually for the benefit of the hypocrite, it’s for the benefit of everyone else.
But we know and it just seems like an excuse to not talk about solutions at this point.
Comrade, organizing online is fraught in the best of times but I think people are hyper aware of the risks of talking about these things online right now.
Okay and I get that, but the hypocrisy thing just feels tedious. Like someone’s trying very hard to miss what they’re even doing when they make phonemes.
I say this with kindness: what do your comments add to the discussion? Sometimes people just want to vent. It’s cool. Just scroll past.
Why didn’t I scroll past your comment? Because I thought it might be useful to remind people to shut the fuck up.
Shutting the fuck up is pretty great if you have literally any idea what to do. I’m not anti shut-the-fuck-up. It’s a really great solution for a lot of people. The best, even.
I think i am also entitled to vent. Hearing libs shout about hypocrisy then aggressively shout down even the most mild plan of ‘okay but personally ask them to stop’ is pretty frustrating.
Who’s stopping you from talking about Solutions?
The government
Not knowing shit about signal electrowhatever or guns, which seem like the two bodies of knowledge a solution would come from.
So your own ignorance is the only thing stopping you?
Yeah. Not everyone can know everything.
Not only do they not care, they get off on people getting upset over the hypocrisy. It’s a power move.
I know. Did none of these people ever have a bully?
Just the opposite. Continue to point it out at every opportunity. They hate being called out. It doesn’t matter if they care about what they practice, they hate hearing it.
So far, it only seems to be ratcheting up persecution.
We’re at the point now where the only way out is through. The basic checklist includes staying alive, staying sane, trying to stay out of trouble, helping out when you can, and looking for others doing the same. More or less in that order. There is always a “final battle” when society does a fascism that ultimately unwinds it. We’re on track for that and have just missed our last exit. That’s what we have to look forward to. We’re firmly in “weeks where decades happen” territory, buckle up. Hopefully this time we can clean up properly after.
We’ve been there for a long while and refused to see it, for personal comfort and safety. It will require a lot more temperance, courage, sacrifice, a lot less reactionarianism.
I’m pretty sure at this point if you’re not doing anything else you’re just emphasizing impunity and lack of consequences.
If Republicans didn’t have mirrors they wouldn’t know their own reflection
So, what, some sort if orbital magnifying glass to burn them with? Wouldn’t the atmosphere make that really hard?
Not a magnifying glass. Giant tungton rods. No explosive need. Just drop them from space. Kinetic energy does the rest
And Jimmy Kimmel deserved to be pulled off air more than the Fox host. Make that make sense.
Totalitarianism
This happened Monday, and this is the first I’ve heard of it.
But, today some cops were shot in PA, and it’s immediately all over the news. There’s a press conference going on now, and everyone is shocked and sad.
…today some cops were shot in PA…
oh, tots and pears
because no one cares when homeless people die. And in fact the fox news guy just said the quiet part out loud of what A LOT of people think.
I do volunteer work outreach work for the homeless and it’s a weekly thing to see homeless people beaten up, attacked in their sleep, etc. This isn’t a new thing.
Women, children, differently gendered and slight of build are raped regularly, in addition to other physical abuse on the streets as well.
I just had this exact same experience.
Tearing each other apart while the billionaires laugh at us.
So trump supporters count as one of us? Seems to me they are an extension of the rich’s will.
Some? I saw one about a guy who went into work and having seen someone there with a gun before not in uniform and said he decided he was going to shoot him. Last I knew he didn’t even ask for a lawyer, he just brought his gun in, shot him and put it back in the car after apparently then let them arrest him.
Guess I’ll have to go searching for the others
FFS Republicans. You own this 100%
They dont ever own shit
They just break other people’s shit and then the Enlightened Centrists (and not a few deluded leftists) whine when the responsible adults (Democrats) don’t fix it fast enough.
Well, sometimes they own other people
Because they never pay. They just keep getting free passes.
The problem is that they’re happy to own it.
So how do we stop them? Law’s not gonna do shit, but fox news did incite multiple mass murders here. What kind of consequences can be applied?
[ Removed by Reddit ] is the only idea that comes to mind, alas.
So, like, anything between a gently worded letter that never quite asks explicitly but strongly implies what you’d like and full on accellerationist posadism?
If you were to hack Grindr…
Don’t ask what I’m gonna do, comrade.
The only downside to a strike is not enough people striking.
So, a ‘strike’ has come to mean ‘work stoppage’
And historically that has been the most mild of its possible meanings.
Sabotage of machinery and doing work as normal but dividing the product up among workers or giving it out for free, lying to suppliers, and all sorts of more aggressive tactics have traditionally been included in what that word meant. A lot of that doesn’t take a lot of people.
Members of the fascist party could not be reached for comment, but their neighbors did report noise complaints, from the volume of masturbation.
Old fashioned stochastic terrorism.
"That’s the way it has to be now. Or, involuntary lethal injection. Yeah. Or something. Just kill ‘em, yeah,” Kilmeade said in response to his co-host suggesting homeless people suffering from mental illness be imprisoned if they do not accept treatment.
Can’t believe this is a real quote WTF
Yeah, Nexstar canceled Kimmel for calling this behavior out but still carries Fox
It’s so fucking crazy that one entity has so much veto power.
Unfuckingbelievable trash
Arm the homeless
House the homeless!
Kill two birds with one stone:
Thanks man this news fuckin sux so thanks
I bet you’ve been just waiting for this moment, to pull that one out, haven’t you?
I was a boy scout and loved The Lion King; I am always prepared.
Prepared for what?
Ill understand if you dont respond.
And I just noticed something: that’s a white house, and the roof and upper floor has been thoroughly washed in dried blood from impaled jabronies. :(
I was just listening to the Hell House theme a moment ago!
But I’m a gunsmith, not a carpenter. You don’t want me building houses. However, if you need some tips on making firearms out of things easily lifted from home depo, I’m your man.
Are you saying you can’t build a gun big enough to live inside?
Challenge accepted. The HOA is not going to be happy.
“Alright, so get your power drill, and carefully duct tape it to the gun. That way, when you pull the trigger, you got a revolver.”
That’s a lot more expensive.
But a lot more stable in the long run.
So the cops are just okay with it? You don’t need to arm them?
I’m not sure giving people on the streets weapons wholesale is the answer when many are there due to illnesses that manifest in violence.
That’s exactly what they’re hoping for. Dehumanizing vulnerable people like that …
