    Wait, so in some of the news articles where the text says "kill you little C*******" or whatever, they were censoring "crackers?!" I thought it was like "cocksuckers" or "cuntbags" or something. They have to censor "cracker?" Why?

    Because it’s very offensive, of course…

    The only thing I can figure is, they were supposedly hung up on some former basketball teammates who were black, and maybe this was like some sort of “they’ll love me if I do this for them” type of thing?

    They’ll get demonetized if they don’t censor the word. We’re talking dollars here, son.

    That's stupid. Any white person who's been offended by the word Cracker is an idiot, and any person who tries to equate Cracker with being equally pejorative or degrading as the N-word isn't capable of rationale thought. Y'all were making fun of ugly people the other day. You better watch your hate speech, Crackers!

    Little sicko sure had a problem with the Whites, didn't he? I guess he never bothered to look in a mirror. I see a lot of resentment, a lot of "why are their childhoods so great and not mine?". Vengeance for imagined grievances.

    "Manifesto" my ass. It's the ramblings of a complete fucking whack job. We need to stop lionizing these assholes.

    Everytime this shit happens, I think the 2nd amendment needs to be interpreted as "if you couldn't convince 12 people that you'd be on a militia with that you can be trusted with a firearm....you don't fucking get one." with the 2023 version of "one of those 12 people has to check your browser history."

    If you're going to publish his manifesto, you might as well publish all of it: his 8th grade book reports, his shitty poetry, his inane application to Bed Bath and Beyond, his sad texts to a girl out of his league. Don't let his writing be the thing, let his whole shitty existence serve as an embarrassment to this class of chickenshit fuckery. Yeah, we'll read your "manifesto" right alongside your pornhub searches for bbc creampie cuckold, creepy homoerotic letters to Tucker Carlson, etc. They all want to be lionized, but instead get kitty-fied.

    The more I think about the 12 people to militia idea, the more I like it. You either get a dozen community members who live around you to sign off on you owning a gun, or you register with the alphabet squad on the "ruh-roh Shraggy" list, or any firearm you possess is illegal, and subject to be confiscated immediately.

    Based on the banjar system of community watch/policing I encountered in Indonesia, you let folks police their own for the most part. If one of your 12 signatures is a fucking whack job who hauls off and shoots a bunch of people, you all lose your gun privileges, and go on the ruh-roh list. Don't like it? Don't sign off on someone's shit. Not going to be in their business that much? Don't sign it.

    You need to be in legit community with 12 people to own a gun, or you let the feds know that you have guns and can't get 12 folks to agree you should have one.

    That and insurance for cops the way doctors have to carry malpractice. Insurance companies get to review records and footage and submit 2 tests per year. If they can't carry coverage, they can't carry a firearm. If you don't wanna be a cop if you can't carry a gun, well....I'd call that the system working as intended.

    The whole idea that NOTHING can be done is the first thing that needs to be overcome.

    Fuck that. I'm not risking my right to own a firearm because someone I've known for years snaps and shoots some people and I signed off on them years ago.

    Not to mention that a program like that could be used vindictively against a neighbor someone doesn’t like just because.

    Sounds like it works to me.

    Either that, or you register yourself with the Alphabet Boys.

    I'm like you, I'd choose the feds over 12 of the fucking yahoos around here.

    I own several, but I keep them in SC, where I don't have to complete any paperwork. Also, given my history of mental illness and living arrangements, I don't want to keep one in the house. They are all under lock and key.

    Sounds like a good reason to either pick folks you'd SERIOUSLY SERVE ON A MILITIA WITH or not fuck around.

    I'm not sure how it could be vindictive. You sign off on someone's right to buy/own a gun, or you don't. If they don't commit a crime, what's the issue?

    I dunno, I don’t feel like this shooter is of the mega right-wing Tucker Carlson brand. Or at least I’ll wait to see more evidence for that.

    Have you met any of your fellow citizens? Ever serve on a 12-person jury? People are stupid. Just enhance the background checks and have local law enforcement sign-off on your license. That's what we have in Massachusetts. I have to renew my CCW through my town's police department. The only issue with this system is arbitrary decision-making town-by-town.
