Reply to comment by IPA_lot_ in Berks County native killed in LGBTQ nightclub mass shooting - CBS Philadelphia by boundfortrees

I mean people tend to get angry when hate crimes are committed after one political party calls the nutcases to action.

Oh I absolutely agree, it’s a tragedy what happened and I guess my comment wasn’t the best but there are DA’s and Mayors all over the country now just letting crime get out of hand. I’m willing to bet there’s at least 50 people killed daily around the country because of it.

But the commenter made it political so I was just wondering if they’re only upset because of the leadership of that area or if they get upset when DA’s in NY, Chicago and Philly allow scum to walk the streets freely and harm others.

Understood. This specific thing is definitely driven by right leaning politics and religion so a little skewed. I agree that states have been too lax on crime including Krasner.

Most problems are generally religion/political or both. Be nice if they somehow fucked off. World would be a better place.

Can you really substantiate this claim with good evidence or is this hyperbole? Genuinely curious about the source of your claim that this crime was the result of a political party calling anyone “ to action”

The shooter literally came from a family of homophobic January 6th insurrectionists. This is the direct result of right wing “groomer” conspiracy being spoonfed to their followers.

I get why this is a rule, but let’s not lie to ourselves and all pretend that in 2022 that there are not several ‘religions’ that are basically just glorified tax exempt hate groups.
