Another white terrorist murders innocent individuals in the name of conservatism. |
Just pray away the pain and have mercy on those lost souls!
Hey, folks. We appreciate your feedback on the latest issues facing the government, our community and the mainstream media. I do appreciate those reading Journal de la Reyna. We believe in a society where we all can live together without fear or repercussion.
It's unfortunate in the age of Donald J. Trump, the norms are often thrown out.
As you know, we have often done the Blame Game as a reflection on how mass shootings occur in the country. There have been so many mass shootings in the country. We haven't done really much to control this epidemic of violence in the United States.
Here's a poll.
Another mass shooting in the United States. This time in San Diego. The shooter was caught. Who actually takes the blame? (Expect far-right trolls to pick the dumbest answers)
The Charard Synagogue was the site of the mass shooting. |
Since the Parkland mass shooting, the NRA has lost a whole lot of support. It's led to a big fall out between LaPierre and North. Today North was ousted as the NRA president after serving one year.
Now the NRA has something else to worry about. The aftermath.
The name of the mass shooter is released and it's another one for Trump, Republicans and the NRA to take cover from. It was a white man who had supported Trump, hated Jews, hated Muslims and vowed to be a martyr to the white extremist cause.
The shooting happened in Poway, a city outside of San Diego, California. The mayor of the city Steve Vaus clearly said that the terrorist had intentions and it was a hate crime.
The rabbi (left) who tried to stop the shooter was shot in the hand. The terrorist blew his hand off. |
Vaus along with Trump, Pence, Gov. Gavin Newsom, Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA), Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA), Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) and the 52 other lawmakers in the U.S. Congress will do the usual song and dance. The thoughts and prayers and deepest sympathies bullshit.
The same old song about how Americans must withstand the evils of those who commit acts of violence and we will do all we can to prevent this. Missing from all that rhetoric is a call to action.
Mind you the United States is the only superpower in the world that continues violence on a mass scale. The last major terrorist attacks to happen by international terrorist were the September 11, 2001 attacks.
Americans often symbolize terrorism with Muslims. Drug smuggling with immigrants and Latinos.
Gun violence in the urban centers with Black men and women. All of these stereotypes are often vilified by the far-white and amplified by Trump.
The terrorist posted a 4,000-word anti-Semitic, Islamophobic and white supremacist, manifesto he wrote and published online before the shooting and said in a post on 8chan that he would be live streaming the attack, but no video of the shooting has emerged. A Facebook page he linked to in the post has been deactivated.
Expect more mass shootings. |
The terrorist practically called the law on himself.
The terrorist has no prior arrest record and the FBI said there had been no reports about him made before the shooting. San Diego County Sheriff Bill Gore said they are investigating the case as a homicide and are also looking into the possibility of hate crime charges and federal civil rights violations.
The shooting occurred on the final day of Passover and exactly six months to the day of when a gunman opened fire at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh, killing 11 worshippers and wounding several others. The accused shooter in that mass shooting was arrested. He was motivated by his anti-Semitic views, according to investigators.
Earnest said in his manifesto that he was inspired by the Tree of Life gunman along with the New Zealand mosque shooter, who killed 50 people in Christchurch on March 15, 2019.
Trump gives a half-hearted statement on the latest developments.
Then he post a few tweets on social media.
Thoughts and prayers to all of those affected by the shooting at the Synagogue in Poway, California. God bless you all. Suspect apprehended. Law enforcement did outstanding job. Thank you!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 27, 2019
None of these issues help soothe over folks who already believe that his words had contributed to this. Of course, some here will often blame Barack Obama, Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and progressives for the violence.
Really, if violence is started by these folks, why are they the ones getting death threats?
Law enforcement determine the motives to this massacre. |
The mass shooting at a synagogue rings echoes of the November 2018 mass shooting at the Tree of Life in Pittsburgh. That was done by a far-white terrorist who had the same intentions like this one.
The terrorist was caught alive. This one was caught alive as well.
Now this suspect is facing first degree murder, capital murder and possible hate crime charges. His automatically looking at LIFE in the iron college for the gun charges. He also could be up for the DEATH card if convicted.
The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE THREAT IN THE UNITED STATES.
