That white supremacists decided to use to identify themselves to others.

Just like the hand gesture for "Okay" is used upside down to flash "white power."

White supremacy is a myth. That some people actually believe in it . . . makes those people (dangerous) dumbasses.

Another mass shooting. Seems to be one every week or so.

Mental illness, youth, and gun reform are all tied to this shooting.

Mental illness is a complicated subject. I think there are signs of the illness that can and should be reported. It will be an expensive undertaking but equating lives to dollars IMO is not a difficult decision, lives before dollars.

The Biden bill involving age requirements will help in the youth arena. Gun reform is in hands of our legislators.

True, incoherent anger and mindless conspiracy mongering were part of his appeal to his supporters.

Fox News propaganda is currently the worst it's ever been in its own history

Their narrative on this shooting is that it was in a "democrat run city"

I saw his pic and wondered if he killed Scooby Doo first. Cuz he's a Shaggy lookin MF.

PC is his destiny. The prison system would snap this geek in two in general population. No way he's going to make it in general. Even if he didn't do what he did and wasn't a Trumper, he'd get seriously abused just based on his overall weakness and appearance, but in his case, he's gonna also be a weirdo who no other white inmates want to be around.

Right wingers use whatever terms to suit their purposes, no matter how batsh crazy they are to liberals. EG using the term Karen as a somehow liberal thing within 6 months of its existence as a term when the name was entirely chosen to represent a 53%er who calls cops on the black kids in the community pool, etc. I just read a sticker last Fri that said, "FUELED BY THE TEARS OF LIBERALS AND KARENS". The momo thinks Karens are libtards. Has zero clue. And fact that there was a pre-printed window sticker w/ that only shows how the right wingers do this. They also ruined the term woke w/in 1 year.

Maher's pointing out of incel anger is a thing imo. Another 50 lb weirdo like Adam "Android" Lanza, the Sandy Hook freak. He put up a pic of about 9 different whiteboys who shot up public and it was a smorgasboard of incels (at BEST) and outright schizos w/ orange hair, racists, genetic lottery losers, etc. Not a one ever looks "normal'.

The Highland Park shooter absolutely fits in this group. I wouldn't be shocked if he was a complete incel who dealt with bullying his entire life.

A Highland Park resident has shared her experiences with the shooter.

She claims he was a "known agitator" who "joined a group of pro-Trump and militia supporters in the summer of 2020 to intimidate residents..."

She claims there are others who pose a danger as well.

Bobby Crimo is NOT a Lone Wolf
On July 4th 2022 I was heading to breakfast at the Walker Brothers restaurant downtown Highland Park with my mother and 17 year old high school student. The rest of my family was on their way back from a weekend trip. I told my husband and my youngest not to hurry back for the parade but instead to be home by 2:00 pm for a backyard party with friends. At 10:00 am, my mother picked us up. We drove the couple of blocks and parked in front of a bagel shop. There was a series of loud pops when we exited the car. My brain processed them as fireworks. As we turned onto Central Avenue, people ran, leaving wagons abandoned in the street. In my head, I thought that they were going home since the parade had just passed.
My 17-year old kept saying that something isn’t right, people were fleeing, not just going home. It didn’t register until I heard the wails of people calling for their family members. We stood there for a moment and then it hit me… there was a shooting. We left the scene and began hearing from friends. They described the bodies in the street, the wounded bleeding out, the confusion and mass hysteria that swept over the crowd as they realized what was happening.
A friend of mine with military training ran to the dead, dying, and injured and helped as best they could to keep these people from bleeding out until the ambulances arrived. The shooter was perched on Uncle Dan’s rooftop. He climbed up a ladder in the alleyway and lay in wait. 6 are confirmed dead so far with nearly 30 wounded.
The shooter wasn’t caught immediately. The police seemed just as stunned and unprepared as the rest of us. The town went on lockdown as the police and FBI worked to uncover his identity and find him. When it was announced around 6 pm that the suspect was caught, his face and identity were known to me. In fact, had I been asked for a short list of people in the area who I thought had the potential and motivation to cause such harm and destruction in our community, his name would have likely been on the list. What I know for certain is that the shooter knew my name, address, and make and model of my car. He and his associates had doxxed me, creating a flyer calling me a dangerous Communist with my picture, name, address, and a call to action that I must be stopped. Why was I on the radar of a 20 year old kid and his band of hoodlum friends? Because I dared to counter-protest their Stop the Steal events in 2020.
I’ve heard on CNN and other news sources that there are only a few photos of the shooter with Trump Flags and that his major motivator was a love of death and destruction. This is blatantly false. There are multiple news articles from the Patch and Chicago Tribune featuring photos of the shooter at these MAGA events. I recognized him right away as part of the group of local angry white young men who had previously waited for me after protests, to threaten and harassed me, and came to a Protect the Results vigil on December 12, 2020 in Highland Park’s Sunset Park where they did the nazi salute multiple times and screamed the following at our small group through a bullhorn…
“We refuse to accept a socialist, communist and anarchist America. We pledge to stop a Biden led communist regime that will kill the American Dream and the traditional way of American life. We demand Biden Harris never. We will not stop until the Antifa scum and Black Lives Matter monkeys get put in their place. Enough of this Left-wing violence.”
The police were there. They did nothing other than tell us to leave the park at dusk when we were already heading to our cars.

In Northbrook, the Stop the Steal rallies were violent. People who I was counter-protesting with were hit in the head with thick flag poles by the future shooter and his associates. The police did little when their side crossed the street to confront us repeatedly.
I did reach out to the police and so have others. We’ve been speaking out about the harassment and behavior of local MAGA fanatics but have been ignored, brushed aside, or even made to feel as if we provoked them.
The shooter joined a group of pro-Trump and militia supporters in the summer of 2020 to intimidate residents with their aggressive “Trump Train” through the heart of the old downtown, the location of his future mass shooting.
The shooter is not a surprise. Don’t believe the news reports. Bobby Crimo was a known agitator and there could have been interventions before my neighbors' bodies lay strewn across the parade route. This is a fact.
He is a homegrown terrorist who flew under the radar because no one was willing to see the signs.
There are others like him that are even more likely in my opinion to cause harm and devastation in Highland Park and surrounding communities. We know their names. We know their history of extremism. They walk amongst us waiting for the next opportunity to unleash their fascist desires of control and death on our communities. I have called the police. I have called the FBI. I have spoken out publicly and I continue to do so despite making myself a target.
The truth is slowly leaking out as some media outlets do the investigative work that should be done. You will see that Robert Crimo wasn’t just a crazy person with violent tendencies, he was part of an organized movement to instill fear in anyone brave enough to oppose the fascist threat to our country.
He’s no lone wolf. There are a hundred “Bobby Crimos” waiting in the wings for the chance to punish liberal America and anyone who they see as not embodying “traditional American family values”.
I encourage anyone who reads this to do a little research on Bobby Crimo and his associates. It’s all there in news articles, photos, and videos. Yesterday was a MAGA-inspired crime against the community of Highland Park and humanity at large. I have put so much energy into trying to bring attention to this issue with little impact. Hopefully, some of you will help me keep the pressure on our law enforcement and community leaders to do something before the next attack.

(Dad dies shielding 2-year-old son from gunman's bullets)

Quote:
By his father's final act of heroism, Aiden McCarthy survived the carnage at a July Fourth parade in suburban Chicago. But the 2-year-old now is left to grow up without either of his parents -- an orphan of America's bane of mass shootings.

Kevin McCarthy, 37, and his wife, Irina, 35, were among seven people who died following an explosion of bullets Monday from a rooftop into a holiday crowd in Highland Park, Illinois, the Lake County Coroner's Office has said. Nearly 40 others were injured.

What's troubling is that there was a recent report that less and less men are enrolling in universities. They feel it will lead to more men being unemployed, down-on-their-luck losers, which opens the door to them becoming radicalized by MAGA or Q propaganda and doing mass shootings not just because they got radicalized, but also because they probably feel like they have nothing to lose.

MAGA is the perfect movement for these MFers because it allows them to blame all of their problems on "others," whether it's women looking for gender equality, people of color, LGBTQ people, liberals, hippies, etc.
