The POS shot kids. Who are these people?

I guess there is an actual term for these people, MAGA Maniacs:

If you say so. I really don't think you understand just how effective you are at escalating the violence. Keep pretending you got this right, you'll need the soothing.

Where is all the outrage for this in MAGA-land? Where are the half-mast flags?

Where are "We are [Mormons]" slogans on social media for the victims?

God, I can't stand the MAGA-cult.

Which cult do you prefer?

Are you looking for my internal mechanism to judge the most crazy/least tolerable cults to the stupid yet relatively harmless cults?

Or are you just saying words?

I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for your post today and for sharing it with us. I had been anticipating a post like this in this thread before contributing myself. Your comment shows all of us exactly what I've been expressing regarding the Marxist progressive movement, specifically that they embody hatred, vengeance, and a desire for outrage and animosity.

As someone who has left Mormonism and avoided becoming part of the progressive cult, I can recognize the bitterness in the tribalism reflected in your post. It's clear you're upset because conservatives prefer not to behave like irrational xxxholes when a tragedy occurs involving members of their political or religious group. It seems you wish for the Mormons to express their sorrow with a mindset of animosity, similar to how a Marxist progressive group might approach such a situation. Your frustration stems from their choice to grieve in a calm and dignified manner, which angers you because your perspective is rooted in a belief system of pure hatred.

This incident, and the Charlie Kirk assassination has revealed to millions of Americans that the true responsible adults in this country are within the conservative movement, while those who are psychotic and delusional are currently being influenced by the Marxist progressive ideology that has taken over the Democrat party. Individuals such as Can'tpakes, Captain Progressive a.k.a. Res Ipsa, GadiSCAMton, and DrCamnPP are perfect examples of an ideology of animosity that is leading millions of Americans to favor the Republican Party over the Democratic Party.

Rest assured, Mormons and Christians alike are praying for the victims of the mass shooting, and they are also keeping people like you, Can'tpakes, Captain Progressive, GadiSCAMton, and DrCamnPP in their thoughts, hoping that you will eventually find peace and move beyond the cult ideology that poisons your perspective with hatred. They care for you despite the clear disdain you show towards them. They love Can'tpakes, despite his hatred for Mormons. They love Captain Progressive despite his hatred for Mormons. For some strange reason, they love GadiSCAMton, despite his hatred for Mormons as well.

What I appreciate about my Mormon friends is how they express their love for their neighbors, and you will witness their love on display in the upcoming weeks. The shooter will receive forgiveness for his actions, and you along with your Marxist progressive friends will hate the Mormons for forgiving the shooter. The Mormons will extend their support to the shooter's wife, offering her love and assistance during this challenging period. She will be blessed by the Mormons more than any other group that reaches out to her. And you and Captain Progressive, Can'tpakes, GadiSCAMton, and DrCamnPP will hate the Mormons for taking the high road and showing the word that actual adults still exist, and they are found in the conservative movement.

You obviously don't like the MAGA one. Sounds like you dislike cults in general. Maybe you have one that you like and dislike all the rest. I don't think MAGA is any more of a cult than the democrats. At the extreme, they are exactly the same damn thing. Nobody has shown an ounce of difference in cultiness and authority preference. They just like different outcomes from their preferred cultiness and authority.

So, signs point very strongly to this guy being an anti-Mormon bigot.

His MAGA t-shirts and yard signs point to his MAGA affiliation but probably say little about his motivations, which seem clearly anti-Mormon in nature.

To your satisfaction, at least. Lots of people across the political spectrum have shown pretty clearly how Trump is violating tradition, law, and the Constitution.

Harrowing! That brought out a lot of detail I was unaware of. It completely changed my understanding of the events.

It appears that the cultiness and authority preference of MAGA is Donald Trump. This is not the same preference as ‘Democrats’. Whiskey needs to get out more often.
