Doesn’t sound Muslim to me. There must be more to the story.

Crazy FoxBot makes Crazy Threats for Crazy Reason! Whaaaa? Who could see it coming? At least they caught him before he did something about it.

Once again, thanks goes out to Republicans for creating a hateful and toxic environment. But of course, they will blame it on left-wing, liberal trans-genders.

Rawstory nailed it with an Alternet piece on 12/1/15:

Stochastic terrorism is the use of mass communications to incite random actors to carry out violent or terrorist acts that are statistically predictable but individually unpredictable. In short, remote-control murder by lone wolf.”

A public figure with access to the airwaves or pulpit demonizes a person or group of persons.

With repetition, the targeted person or group is gradually dehumanized, depicted as loathsome and dangerous—arousing a combustible combination of fear and moral disgust.

Violent images and metaphors, jokes about violence, analogies to past “purges” against reviled groups, use of righteous religious language—all of these typically stop just short of an explicit call to arms.

When violence erupts, the public figures who have incited the violence condemn it—claiming no one could possibly have foreseen the “tragedy.”

I’ve written this before, but it bears repeating; mental illness is a true scourge of this society. Please get this man some help, soon.

…about a pro-Confederate Civil War outlaw.

AKA “…about a rebel traitor.”

A Muslim, a PP worker, or a BLM activist. Before June of next year, one of these people will be killed by some unhinged rightwing nut job, and then the shit will really hit the fan.

I wouldn’t wish Parkinsons on anyone, but if I did, I’d start with these guys who hate on stem-cell research and treatment. But they’re so cognitively dissonant, they could avail themselves of the treatment and still call down death on the providers.

The judge that let him out on “an unsecured appearance bond” may rue the day - unless he’s a pro-life GOTP fanatic too.

I hope the marshals took any weapons this RWNJ has and/or that the judge ordered him to turn them over and not to purchase or borrow any until the case is over.

Likely as soon as he gets bailed out.

Fox Nation article comments rank right up there with Stormfront and Free Repbulic when it comes to horrendously awful opinions and nonsensical right-wing derp. I’m not surprised.

Everyone has Constitutional rights they don’t like. I’ll bet there are people online offering to pay people to kill Sturm Ruger or Smith and Wesson employees, too, right?

FOX News egged him on and then assisted in taking him down.

How’d ya like that JoseyWhales?
