This is the direct result of that "groomer'' bullshit. When 1/3rd of Americans think queer acceptance is a plot to get their children raped it's going to result in spouts of violence.

Stochastic terrorism in perfection

This kind of stuff is precisely why they slew shit like this - to make events like this more common and make people scared that support or are lgbt

A damn shame. I've spent lots of time around Lake Arrowhead, it's in the San Bernardino mountains east of LA. An area that experienced a lot of white flight in the 70s when school integration happened. Redneck Central. This poor lady, a mother of nine now dead

Around whites, activate fight or flight.

Oh great, chuds are now randomly deciding to go to Valhalla over their dumb brainworms

The state of LGBT rights in the civilized "west". No wonder they try to pull off shit like LGB alliance to put us apart. The less of us the easier we are to kill. Literally, as terrifying as it is. Stay vigilant.

LGB Alliance can fuck off big time.

[–] nohaybanda@hexbear.net 4 points 2 years ago

Pink washed anti-trans bootlickers. If any queer person thinks the christofash will leave them be once they’re done with trans folk, they’re delusional fools.

[–] autismdragon@hexbear.net 1 points 2 years ago

Its a front for fascists. Like, openly so. Like they dont even stick to the letters they keep because they've said shitty things about bi people too. But even then, the idea that you should seperate trans people from a community they helped create is shitty on its face. Its a group trying to split us apart, that could never be good.

Jesus fucking christ

If you're in the US and you can get a gun, get one right fucking now

Id advise for protective gear not offensive.

How the fuck did we get to a place where you need either of these things to hang a goddamn flag outside your building with your freedom of speech opinion on it? This is insane.

This is a rhetorical question, @queermunist nailed it on the head.

Wars are won not by ever fighting back but taking all the hits your enemy can dish out until they run out of ammo and go home.

Body armour won’t save you here.

Every cold war era fear over sleeper agents has been realized with COVID-addled losers having their brainworms activated by rainbows and self-destructing their meaningless lives with nonsensical violence

trans-gun Death to America

[–] freagle@lemmygrad.ml 6 points 2 years ago (2 children)

What a shithole. Maybe after they get bombed and occupied they will finally see the error of their ways and join the liberal rules-based order.

[–] Fazoo@lemmy.ml 9 points 2 years ago

Maybe lower the dosage of whatever shit you're taking.

[–] socsa@lemmy.ml 9 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Hey someone died what a great chance to be smug and push your agenda!

[–] Commiejones@hexbear.net 11 points 2 years ago

Oh shit sorry I forgot we need to have a moment of silence until the next white business owning woman in america is murdered. Thoughts and prayers to the victims family but no calls for action to end the slaughter of African Americans by the police or by USA's illegal invasions because that would distract from the very really tragedy of one white person dying.

[–] Deceptichum@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Generally when people are dying is the most critical time to push an agenda of saving them.

[–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Maybe they should have tried not sounding like an incoherent mess then. They're calling for even more indiscriminate violence.

[–] freagle@lemmygrad.ml -4 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Wow, libs really do engage in projection at every possible chance.

[–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Maybe after they get bombed

Explain.

[–] freagle@lemmygrad.ml -1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

So you know when the US bombs countries for "humanitarian reasons"? Like that. Like how citizens of the US think we should go to war to stomp out those backwards Muslims who will never be able to govern themselves because they all want theocracy so they need a bloody revolution and we should help? Like that. Or how about when a country has been colonized, underdeveloped, exploited, and devastated and then we give "aid" that results in more wealth being extracted and when they finally decide to stop that we call them terrorists and extremists and then stoke a civil war, arm and train the side most amenable to our interests and then bomb the country to bring about the change we seek? Like that.

[–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.ml -2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

So you're rationalizing why it's just to bomb civilians by complaining about how injust it us when civilians are bombed? You're an incoherent mess.

[–] freagle@lemmygrad.ml -1 points 2 years ago

Keep working on it. I am sure it will come to you eventually.

[–] Xariphon@kbin.social 0 points 2 years ago

Hey look it's that thing where somebody says something on the Internet so brick fucking stupid you can't tell if you're seeing an actual moron or a really good satire.

[–] Fernando-678@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Scary, is this kind of thing happening often in the US?

[–] diffuselight@lemm.ee 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Most shooters are white, radicalized, male and recently incel/ y’all-qaeda

[–] Fernando-678@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago

Y'all-qaeda lol

[–] zephyreks@programming.dev 1 points 2 years ago

The US, truly the pinnacle of LGBT rights.
