Two dead after hate crime in Portland

Obamacare isn't free healthcare for all. It saves me hundreds every month, but I'm also shelling out hundreds. It isn't free. Im guessing with a deep wound like I saw in this hero's pics that surgeries and medicines won't be cheap. 
Speaking of go fund me
How about the sister of Dylan Roof who shot 12 black churchgoers. Dylans sister's honeymoon plans were delayed by her stupid brother's killings. She decided to make a go fund me page to help her honeymoon dilemmas. She took it down shortly after because of ridicule.

Also Obamacare=Affordable Care Act. It may seem dumb thing to say that, but I can't tell you how many people said "Screw Obamacare, cause I got the Affordable care act"
I was a born-again christian for many years then I got woke.. and now life is better in so many ways. It's taking me time to see my value and find my voice, but the reward is liberating knowing my path is not dictated or controlled by fear of death and the unknown.  Casting off the shackles of religion is pretty fucking awesome. The beautiful people I've met on this forum have more heart and compassion than any group of people I've been apart of. So back off Jesus and followers, because this bitch is done with Chu.  Shy

This is messed up.
On the one hand, those folk who stood up for the girls were heroes.
But, on the other hand, they're dead, which is something that will weight heavily next time someone thinks of standing up for somebody else.
In a way, it is terrorism. The grand majority of people, all the decent folk, will now fear going against such hateful idiots.

It depends. For some people, no amount of money is affordable, which is why even the Dems will tell you that the ACA was not a long-term perfect solution. It's certainly more affordable for most. Free is obviously better if you're that broke or you were stabbed by a FUCKING MANIAC. That man should not have to pay for his medical bills anyway. The bastard who stabbed him should.

What exactly is your point?  Non-ACA plans aren't exactly paragons of affordability.

I'd choose to be on the ACA if my employer didn't pay the lion's share of my plan's $20,282.88 annual premium and 40% of the $12,000 deductible (the rest is paid substantially with pre-tax dollars).

I dare say the victim just might need a little assistance paying those sorts of costs as well. /s

You're right. The AHCA would have made it so much more affordable.

Cuz the guy is white and crazy and well-known to the local cops.

Terrorists have to be minorities, it seems.

Terrorism must have a political aim.

Edit: Sorry, I should have waited and seen that this has been more than adequately explained by others.

Trump's hate is even infiltrating the liberal bastion of Portland.

Two men were stabbed / had their throats cut by another rider who was hurling anti immigrant slurs at two dark skinned women, one in a head dress.

:'-(

Is there evidence he backed Trump?

From what I've seen he was for Sanders:

He was a Bernie guy, then for Trump after Sanders lost the primary.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.

If those posts are accurate, he chose not to vote rather than vote for Trump.

There are clearly posts missing from that article. He had to have supported Trump at some point between the Democratic primary and Election Day. Not that I think it really matters, but it does say right there that he was planning on voting Trump.
