Edit: also keep in mind that initial information in these situations can often be inaccurate. Trusted outlets have conflicting reports about whether a suspect has been detained.
Edit 2: the campus has officially stated they release the initial subject. Donald Trump has stated Charlie Kirk is dead.
remember when sitting republican congressmen turned the attempted assassination of Nancy Pelosi into a joke? like actually making jokes about it? they’re so good at condemning political violence
So yesterday was the 9/11 anniversary. There was also a school shooting on the same day this piece of human garbage was rightfully shot in the jugular. I read and scour the news every day and use Google News as an aggregator. So does my wife. You had to scroll down about 10-15 stories to even get to the school shooting, and I swear… I didn’t see much coverage about 9/11 at all. Not like they usually do every year. But here we are with Charlie Kirk’s stupid fucking face plastered everywhere as if he is someone to be admired. 9/11 and the aftermath of the war on terror DESTROYED this country. As far as I am concerned, the terrorists fucking won. All progress made up to that point began to faulter and collapse as the divisions between people beating the drums of war in that time and those that didn’t want to necessarily go to war or a multifront full scale war grew further and further. That was the straw that broke the camel’s back leading us to now, where a bigoted, misogynistic, homophobic, piece of shit like Charlie Kirk even makes the fucking headlines. What a fucking time to be alive.
Never heard of him.
Oh no!
Anyway….
My guess is the shooter is a disgruntled right-wing vet and that is why they haven’t caught him yet, they know who he is, and they don’t want to catch him and reveal the truth. If they reveal who he is, we can research his past. So, they’re going to let him go.
Can I offer you a nice egg in this trying time?
Hey fascist, catch!
Hey, be respectful. This man really put his neck out for his beliefs. He offered himself as tribute to the 2nd amendment, and we should admire his conviction. The proper way to celebrate would be to honour his wishes and show zero empathy. It’s the least we can do for him.
It’s a rare man that has the courage to rationalize senseless violence in defense of unrestricted access to deadly weapons, and it is even rarer to literally make that the hill you die on. He showed us all by example how you truly live your creed.
There’s a lot of conservatives seemingly gearing up for war saying shit like “The left doesn’t understand what they’ve unleashed.”
Conservatives get to kill who they want and the moment someone kills one of them they want to murder the left.
(At least that’s what the bot-like conservative social media looks like.)
Someone on reddit found the t shirt, definitely the same kind. It has a flag and eagle with “land of the free, home of the brave”.
It also is listed in numerous places as a “disabled veterans national foundation” shirt.
Under the circumstances, could be relevant.

Update: seems to be a gift for donating to that organization. https://www.dvnf.org/freegift15/
Of course the usual caveats - don’t assume this person actually donated to them, or even is the actual shooter. But yeah, this all may be a clue why they’re so slow to tell us what they know about the shooter, given that it increasingly looks like it doesn’t support the narrative they led with.
What? He’s still dead?
Busy today and I agree with most of the comments. Zero sympathy for a neo-Nazi who supported the violent MAGAts and wished violence on people who disagreed with him.
Just checking in to see if they caught the killer… Nope? Good.
