I've seen a clip of his shooting which autoplayed as I was scrolling on Twitter. I wish I hadn't. I think it's unlikely he survived.
Sadly things are going to get worse. Your country is extraordinarily polarised politically, economic conditions are going to get a lot tougher as the year goes on and you are led by a man who is simply incapable of unifying America.
I'm praying for you guys, and I don't even pray.

I doubt he survives that wound either.
And this no doubt turns up the heat under the kettle.
And Trump will use it to exert more power and control.
They got the shooter. Older white guy. At least he can try to explain why he did it. It cuts down on the conspiracies..

He's died.
I don't think that old white guy is the shooter. I'm sorry to say I think this looks like a political execution using a sniper.

I agree. This has come from somewhere higher up. Dear God, people, wake the fuck up.

Apparently he's not.
That's not really that difficult of a shot for someone with just some basic training..
But the fact that he escaped (so far) suggests someone with a bit more knowledge of these things.
There is a lot of security at these events..

Two girls interviewed said it was quite open and possibly there should have been more security at the university. The local mayor says they are searching for the suspect.
He passed far too young and had young children and although I don't agree with his political views this is a tragedy. But it is yet another example of political violence because America won't tighten up their gun laws. Sadly fatal political violence.
The President himself was nearly shot as result of the "you can prise it out of my cold dead hands " mentality and we know Trump is an advocate is the right to bear arms. The last 18 months have sadly contained many events of gun violence in the US.
Hopefully a debate can be had going forward. But it's a terrible tragedy.

The event slogan all around the tent he was sitting in read ‘Prove Me Wrong’. And I guess someone did…
I agree with Diggs and Avon. This wasn‘t an opportunistic hit by some nutjob who got lucky with a pistol, imv.

The shot was fired from 200 meters away

They didn't prove him wrong. What this has done is confirmed that the vile goading rhetoric being spouted by leftie maniacs to anyone who disagrees with them is dangerous and should have zero tolerance.

The Universities have been the engines for the grand alliance of Feminism - Woke Liberalism - DEI-LQGBT+ - Islamism - Open Borders - Globalism overthrowing traditional Western Societies.

There is a lot of rejoicing on the Twitter feeds and people saying Trump should be next of which I imagine there would be a lot of celebration here on the Trump thread.

Universities are hotbeds for this, because people of a certain age are easily manipulated.

Utah is a very conservative state.
While universities are hot beds for woke nonsense, I think this was someone from outside of the university.

Cenk gets it.
He's a full blown socialist but he gets it..
I don't know who he was, but no one deserves that.
I think the closest version of Kirk y'all have is Konstantin..
Ahhh, a sad loss then. Konstantin speaks to lots of students, and from what I have seen of him, he talks a lot of sense.
