    I think I will wait to see what the investigation shows. . Your supposition might be right ...... but let's wait and see.

    I wonder what they were yelling?

    Clearly it wasn't 'MAGA', we'd know by now if it was...

    Your are describing with justified dismay, radicalization. The far right views everything through warped political lenses now. They have been programmed to do this. It's designed to dehumanize the 'other' side and justify victim mentality, fear, anger and hatred.

    Well, remember when George Stephanopolous and Brian Ross on ABC were almost giddy with excitement upon hearing that Jim Holmes was a Tea Party member - only to discover later that they had found the wrong Jim Holmes who shot up a Colorado theater? The entire Legacy Media is a case study in Confirmation Bias.

    You come in here and blame the RIGHT for this attack? Absolutely shameful.

    Ok. That did not look like an accident. It also not make sense that it was politically motivated since the victims are random, and many were kids. Drunk driving? Pot psychosis? Terrorism?

    True & sad.

    Nasty business indeed. Sadly......it is another form of in the culture of violence that exists.......There seems to be a lot of rage flaoting around with no place to go.......so folks explode in these irrational ways.

    Idiotic post or simply a terribly strawman. Reread my post carefully and think. I responded to a specific post and put into context the OP's assumption (at this early moment) of partisan motives.

    One priest, multiple parishioners and Waukesha Catholic school children among the injured, Archdiocese of Milwaukee confirms. “Our prayers are with the people who have been injured and killed during the tragic incident in Waukesha.”

    I will definitely admit this is a guess here, but after the Rittenhouse trial did not go the way some people wanted it to, you're gonna have some people whose bitterness causes them to act irrational. Now, I ain't Nostradamus and I could definitely be wrong but I'd say right after the verdict there's a better than usual chance this was anger at the "not guilty on all counts" call above the other possibilities you named, although we certainly can't rule them out at this time.

    Heck, maybe it IS senility. I did say earlier that many accidents like this are the result of the elderly driving way past their ability TO drive and we don't know how old the perp is at this time.

    EDIT TO ADD: After I posted that, I just saw the post @dharbert made. Okay, now it's looking a lot more like a deliberate act of rage.

    Nicely......and thoughtfully stated.. The issue is much deeper than the incident......bad as it is........itself.

    The other day it was revealed that not just the Judge (and registered dem) but also the jury were receiving death threats.

    The fella you were replying to asked why it couldn't be right wingers.

    "Brooks is a career criminal with multiple priors and was released from jail two days prior to the incident after posting a $1,000 bail for three misdemeanors and two felonies. He has a history of resisting arrest, battery and domestic violence."

    I dunno, you are aware that the OP hoped it WASN'T a political act and that it was post #3 that was the first one to do so, right? And that particular poster does lean left.

    I have an odd feeling this may cause some sort of political reaction against the "Let's eliminate bail" crowd. I mean, I'm still baffled over the guy in Texas who got a $100 bail amount for beating up someone.

    Good and wise post. That is why it is so imperative not to jump to conclusions as to what happened, or what the motives were.......until we have all the information/ facts.

    What do we know for sure?? and what s speculation??

    Yes it is a real ****ing mystery isn't? Nothing to do with the race baiting MSM and their "white supremacy" poison 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. I suppose we will have to feign surprise when we find out this nutjob is a TYT or MSNBC fan.

    Doubtful. Just watch the MSM go into full protect mode. They are amoral monsters.
