Also Kash Monopoly Money is asking for the public help in identifying the suspect.
I'll do my part here.
I think i saw the hamburgler do it
When we catch him, he is going to Frie(s).
Don't share the photos Don't help the FBI.
It's amazing people here advocating for political assassinations, while in their next breath decrying authoritarianism; doing their best to suppress information used to help catch murderers.
What happens when the system breaks down an political assassination becomes the norm? The most violent political party wins. That is what happens.
Fuck that. The only good fascist, is a dead fascist. I don't give a shit about you intolerance paradox.
What's your solution to dealing with a fascist death cult that is above the law? We already tried sending an angry letter
Go ahead and provide some statistics on how many lemmy users are actively advocating for political assassinations. I can point you to the post where we have prominent conservative leaders advocating for political violence, oh and we can visit r/conservative over at reddit too because, whew, talk about some advocating violence, damn.
As for you whole decrying authoritarianism, one can point out how Kash M. Money is a overtly partisan and non-trustworthy, incompetent actor that will push his and Republicans political view in regardless of the facts of the case to blame the left. Something that he's made clear he would use the office for, punishing political enemies with or without evidence.
So no, I'm not going to help out a fascist bad actor in any case including this one because I 100% do not believe that he will use the information in good faith. Also, I did my part because I have no clue who this guy is.
And as for your question/statement about the most violent political party is also a bunch of BS considering, again, I can point you to a party that's actively and publicly calling for "war" against the left for "avenging" one of their own with absolutely no proof of the motivations of the suspect.
ETA: law enforcement apparently pushed a bulletin containing false information that the bullets had trans and anti-facist sentiments etched into them to journalists. So yeah, about that whole trust the federal agencies to investigate here.
You're not wrong, but you're ignoring the fact, that that's where we are. The system has broken down. Political hits are the norm now. The most violent party will win, and arguably has already won. I don't want violence anymore than the next person, but misrepresentation, violent rhetoric, and easy access to firearms have brought us to this point. The only thing that people are angry about, is the left started shooting back. You can only fire so many shots before people start feeling like they have nothing to lose. And that's where we are.
