I am not jumping to any conclusions. He was a white male, that is a fact.
He murdered two black people, that is also a fact.
When the cops identified the Congressional baseball game shooter, I accepted that he was white, and I also accepted the fact he was a democratic supporter.
Odd that when conservatives supporters have someone in their ranks do the same things they suddenly have a short term memory.
We may know more about the why later, sure, but that does not change the facts as the police have reported so far.

I wasn't ragging on 37, I was making an observation regarding an inaccurate claim. I would be happy to oblige you in the same manner.

Who was being inaccurate? Not me.
The guy was white, the guy murdered minorities. Those are facts. The bomber's motive is not what I was addressing with this post.
My point is that the right wing bigots point to Mexicans and Arabs and yet another example of a white person committing an act of violence. Hes motive does not change his skin tone or the skin tone of those he murdered.
"Keep em all out" and or "deport them all" isn't an argument against violent individuals, it is their argument to promote bigotry of entire groups. Then their heads explode when the sane point out the violence committed by people who live here already.

The ideal prevenlent amongst the right wing fringe in this country is really about the thrill of breaking dishes, so to speak, and martyrdom for the cause of unenlightened selfishness. So it is not all together surprising that right wing fringe in this country should converge upon the same terroristic martyrdom approach as Islamists.

I got what you were doing. I didn't say you were ragging on him. I'm just saying it's pointless to counter his argument. He'll never except what you say. He's too obsessed with this stuff.

No no no no, I am not even talking about this perp's motive. I am talking about the right wing's response when a white guy get's violent they ignore it. We do not know what this guy's motive was. The Congressional baseball game shooter targeted republicans, still still not my point. He was a democrat. But he was also white.
To our far right bigots only minorities and migrants are capable of violence.

"Obsessed"? With what? Tell me exactly what I am "obsessed" with. I can't wait to read your tripe response.

Yea, and?
This guy had a motive otherwise why do it?
Still not my point. My point is the sell of bigotry in conservative media and the orange asshat causes their minions to point fingers at everyone else, then when someone of their same skin tone does shit like this they stupidly say "It's not the same."

The article in the OP has a picture, did you click on it? Doesn't sound like you did. It doesn't seem that we know yet why he did it. Maybe it has something to do with his rather odious right wing views.
Who knows?
But yeah, it irks me a little when it's an Arab person and the immediate comment is "possible terrorism"
Then with Dylan Roof, there are people who still don't know that was terrorism, probably.
You won't get any arguments from me that bigotry against Muslims sucks ass.

Terrorism is, more importantly, violence done by the other side.
When we do it, it is called "collateral damage."
