    It’s odd, I don’t think I’ve ever heard of a lefty or a gay person outright killing someone over a Dixie or Trump flag. I keep reading about far-righties killing people over the scary rainbow flag though

          Hm, it’s one example, while he claimed he never heard of such occurence. Clearly there have been Trump supporters murdered for their allegiance. Can’t say there haven’t been.

            I can think of another example of a Trump supporter murdered for their allegiance. Jeffrey Epstein lol.

            “Can’t say they haven’t been.”

            Actually I can. And I provided as much evidence as you did.

        President Donald Trump commended the U.S. Marshals for shooting Reinoehl, describing it as “retribution”, and claiming to have personally “sent in” the U.S. Marshals to “get” Reinoehl during the first presidential debate with Joe Biden.

        That’s really the icing on top isn’t it

        That’s especially disturbing considering that it seems more like a political hit job on a left-wing activist. Dude killed somebody allegedly in self-defense, then he was gunned down - why was a fugitive task for necessary when the dude was just chilling at home?

        He was executed my a shady task force, probably without ever firing his gun, and then the president boasted about revenge. https://archive.ph/OFvJi

        Damn, reading the wiki link is disturbing when you read the shooter’s info. Dude’s house was shot at. Not surprised he was on edge
