I have deleted dozens of posts that are making bold claims without backup sources. I have not deleted a single post wherein someone provided a verifiable source for their claim, nor will I.

"This guy was Antifa for sure!" is not a verified piece of data.
"Well, I heard..." is not a verified piece of data.
"A Republican would never do this so it has to be Antifa!" is not a verifiable piece of data.

People continue to make those claims without any corroboration, they get deleted or they get locked out of the thread, depending. This also goes for reposting videos that have been debunked as fake.

Going through threads and summarily disliking EVERY SINGLE POST that an individual poster makes is a violation of Rule #13. When I am feeling generous in my application of that rule, I sometimes prefer to remove the Dislikes rather than issue an infraction or a thread ban for people who feel the need to dislike EVERY SINGLE POST by a specific user. Eventually, I get tired of deleting them and just issue infractions instead. But I understand that this particular thread generates a lot of hot tempers for people so I am attempting to be lenient on that point.

Though my patience is certainly being taxed by particular site members.

too bad he wasn't a better shot

The only hot temper here is you. I disliked your posts because you were rude and hateful to me. If you'd like to go through my history, you'll see I only do that to people when they are rude and hateful. You earned those dislikes, you're just not man enough to take them because you're so prideful. You deleted a post above who called you out, called you WRONG, and you didn't like that. *Shrugs* That's your hat to wear. And if I can't put a dislike on your posts, then please remove the ones you gave to me. Same vein.

You, in particular, have been going through and disliking the same users' posts over and over again, utterly regardless of what they are saying or whether they address you in any way. Not just mine, but several others. I have removed more than 50 Dislikes from you in the last 36 hours from this thread alone. That's a YOU problem, not a REST OF THE WORLD problem.

The last post I deleted was not deleted for calling me 'wrong.' I am wrong plenty and anyone around here will tell you that.

That moron's post was deleted for the reasons I gave above. He made unequivocal statements, presented them as facts, and refused to provide verifiable sources. To quote:
"The shooter was a crossover voter and a psycho liberal. You. Are. Wrong. I don’t care what the classmates that bullied him say about his character."

The link to the local newspaper that conducted and published those interviews was provided in this thread.

Refusing to believe credible published sources and stating the opposite as an unequivocal fact is deliberately spreading spurious information.
Plenty of people whose posts are still around in this thread disagree with me or vice versa. But spreading spurious 'data' and presenting it as fact is past that.

If you cannot see that because of the depths of your own apparent persecution complex, well...that's on you.

He was a registered Republican at first. For whatever reason he turned! SMH!

Read the thread. They're already here.

If you haven't noticed, I have been moderating the thread since it went up. I have read it several times. I'd prefer to keep your post up, but I am not finding a link to your source. Whether that's my problem or yours, I am not spending any more time looking. I want a clearly labeled link that verifies that there is an older registered Democrat with the same name in the town where that donation was logged.

Come on, man. Just stop breaking my balls and either link the post here or PM me the link so I can label it appropriately in the thread. You could have fucking done this four times over in the time you spent replying to me and me now replying to you.

It just seems very strange that a so called "gun nut" would want to take out a big supporter of the 2nd ammendment and why would a registered republican wanna take out the republican nominee? Very very strange indeed.

The registered Republican at 18 years old don't really mean much imo could even be his old man forcing him to register as one and when your that young, even 20 years old ur opinions are always changing politically.

Usually young people lean left more then right and it's been that way through generations because young people always think they can make a difference and they like holding school walk outs and demonstrations and "occupying" places, fighting for LGBTQ rights, believe that the country is big so anyone who wants to immigrate should be allowed to etc etc you know the things the youngins like to get involved in.

I'm sure we will get a bigger picture in the coming days.

Just pure speculation, such desperation to push this on to the left.

so, who's gonna pay for the new roof?

According to the the morning news and a NY newspaper, he tried to join the school gun club but because of his "off-color" jokes and being a bad shot, he was rejected.
