No, I started with the main piece of evidence.
First of all, you just lowered the bar from "gun enthusiast" to has an "interest in guns." Almost all boys have an interest in guns. When I I # a kid, every boy had a toy gun. But all that said, getting a present of X doesn't mean you're enthusiast of X. An uncle of mine once gate me a silver belt buckle as a birthday present. Yet, believe it or not, I am not a belt buckle enthusiast.
You're right. It is by no means certain. But, come on, is the fact that he got a hunting rifle from his grandfather mean that it is certain that he is gun enthusiast? Obviously not. You have one standard for evidence that favors your preferred position and another for evidence that opposes it.
"8" being the statement that his mom made to the investigators that he had recently become more leftist. If you weren't aware of it, fair enough. But considering how widely that was reported, it raises the question of how biased your sources of information are.
Good if true. But you are selective about how you treat evidence in favor of one side over the other.
Nope, you started with the conclusion that he is a lefty. Then you are trying to shoe-horn and winnow any evidence to support that.
I have no idea what his motivation was. He isn't talking anywhere near where we can hear.
That's a conclusion with no supporting evidence. For example, he may have thought Kirk was not hateful enough. Or he may have not liked his shirt, or his face, or his voice. Or he was just pointing his gun at Kirk for practice and it went off accidentally. Or he was off his tits on meth. Or he is cracked in the head. We just don't know at this stage.
He appears to have been pretty good at handling that rifle. Or at least, better than Thomas Matthew Crooks who took aim at Trump. However, Crooks was further away from his target, so there's that.
His MAGA Mormon mom? Does that raise no questions whatsoever about how biased your own sources of information are? By the way, one of the sources of information is his grandmother.
You too seem to be selective about how you treat evidence in favor of one side over the other, don't you?
Calls grow to boycott ABC owner Disney over Jimmy Kimmel suspension (TheGuardian, Sep 18, 2025)
I linked to the supporting evidence earlier, but here is it again.
Robinson literally wrote, "I had enough of his hatred. Some hate can’t be negotiated out."
Hey, that doesn't make him left. Could just mean he's decent person .. in a way.
It just makes him violently anti-right, yeah?
A seagle.
According to his mother, he was open about it to his parents, which was evidently off-putting to his father who has "very different political views" than his son.
Yeah. He could've just latched on to bits and pieces of ideology he liked, and been on his own little wavelength. Seeing as he declared himself an independent assassin when he was barely old enough to buy a beer, I think it's reasonable that 'Fruit Loopy' is his most likely position on the political spectrum.
