Another fucking spree shooting. Great.

That's what they like about him.

His speech this morning is fine but I can’t imagine him actually following through on this.

His speech this morning is fine

No.

"fine"

have we really sunk this low?

Yes.

swift and decisive death penalty!

cages for brown ppl and the mentally ill

So destructive...

npr pundit pointing out how DJT called out white supremacy in his speech, finding it noteworthy because in the past he has “found it difficult” to do so.

*click*

Baby steps.

that speech is nothing more than signaling there will be a poison pill regarding immigration attached to any gun control bill so he can blame the dems

So not to be one of those people, but has there been any further verification that Dayton shooter identified himself as a 'leftist' and a Warren backer? apparently on a twitter profile. Or is this some kind of right-wing disinfo that isn't getting any play in actual press?

The most credible thing that heavy dot com has produced is that the Greene County Board of Elections does list his party affiliation as Dem: https://greene.ohioboe.com/apps/vtrpolldetails.aspx?idnum=212004. Mainstream media is probably not reporting on this angle since there is no reason to believe that the shooting was politically motivated and so it doesn't seem particularly relevant; mainstream media OTM.

so Trump's stance pretty much seems to be "the manifesto was extremely good, but actually shooting people is bad"

That, and 'video games, fake news and poor mental hygiene are bad'.

Am I the only one even slightly surprised that the El Paso shooter was taken with NO SHOTS FIRED BY COPS when others of us get straight up murdered just for opening a car door too fast?? Or are we all just used to this shit by now?

On the face of it the speech was fine; he made several points I completely agree with. The issue is that it was hypocritical coming from him, given that he regularly signal boosts online hate himself. Which works to our favor and his detriment. Also, even hinting that he supports background checks won't play well with his base (and if it does, then great; I'd love for them all to support background checks). Not sure how well his blaming video games will play with a lot of his base either for that matter. The old ones, yes; the younger ones?

calling for swift, decisive punishment by death not ok

xp yeah there's a lil thing called ethos

On the face of it the speech was fine

he got one of the cities wrong, said a whole bunch of bullshit, and blamed both video games and bipartisanship for massacres

(sic is making a joke because you wrote dfag instead of dgaf)

I wasn't joking! and got much more confused trying to parse this explanation in context: anyway sic I am saying that if I had a son I would say nope I don't think that's healthy, play FIFA or your guitar or jerk off instead

but hey, he remembered not to congratulate

sic I was simply saying that if I had a son I wouldn't let him play FPS games, and he would probably end up hating me

— dfag

I know now, I was still trying to figure out dfag from that explanation before Andrew's post. Our office regrets the error.

feel like Trump's immediate policy reaction is trying to package gun control in with an immigration poison pill should have been a bigger story

Also, I imagine his definition of a white supremacist is pretty narrow. Wafer thin.

Hey so I just saw a story about how the Dayton shooter kept a kill list and a rape list in high school so just spitballing here but maybe patriarchal violence is a problem.

the most insane part of that story for me was perhaps what i understood to be the fact that he was allowed to remain at the school?

Great, heavy metal is to blame

"The band's song titles are explicitly sexually violent, such as "Preteen Daughter Pu$$y Slaughter" and "Cunt Stuffed With Medical Waste - Sexual Abuse Of A Teenage Corpse." "

Pornogrind is a subgenre of a fast and extreme kind of heavy metal called grindcore, which is known for its mostly dark, satirical themes of sexual violence and gore delivered for shock value.

beside the point but can anyone at buzzfeed news write

The legacy of Anal Cunt lives on.

As a metalhead, i get more and more concerned about alt right presence in the genre. Far right fans are hardly something new, but the dude from Pyrexia was also disturbed. At least his body count was low.

Was bummed when I saw that one of the Sunn O))) guys let white power bands run ads in his zine in the '90s... but wasn't very surprised.

I may have pumped my fist once or twice while reading this

xp to a post far above about 8chan shutting down: I don't think shutting sites like 8chan down is a great answer. Maybe when they get to a certain size it's a good idea to break it up like an angry mob on the verge of a riot, but the downside is that unlike a terror org based on the other side of the world where language and ethnicity is a barrier, these boards are out in the open and pretty easy for anybody to monitor. I don't know why law enforcement wouldn't already be doing what many reporters are already doing, and camping out on these boards (and chat rooms) to study them and to try to understand and mitigate acts of violence. I know I've read that LEA has obtained IP records from popular image boards in the past, directly from the site owners. In a way these boards are a gift to LEA.

I mean, I can only speak for myself but I’m more surprised that they killed the Dayton shooter

the feds absolutely monitor those boards but i wouldn't trust them to actually be good at it

yeah, has that monitoring actually prevented anything yet?

the benefit of 8chan getting shut down as an organizing platform is more valuable than whatever intel u might crib from it

Let's be real, the FBI doesn't put white supremacists high on its list of targets.

Oh great, sic copycats

better than sick copycats

ctrl c ctrl @

Well that's sorted

A small bit of good news:

Rob Monster tried providing backup services to 8chan.

As a result, he and his company Epik were dropped by Voxility, which was providing their upstream service.

So now, not only is 8chan down, but so is the Daily Stormer, which was hosted by Epik.
