109. So the truth is that the murderer was at a Jewish event to hunt Jews.

Thu May 22, 2025, 09:16 PM

Thursday

Not Zionists. Not Israelis. Jews.

A pro-Palestinian Jew-hater flew in from Chicago to hunt Jews at an event sponsored by Jews to celebrate Jewish culture.

The truth is not quite the flex that you thought it was.

But it is the truth.

It looks like some folks didn't bother to do the homework before issuing dismissive pronouncements. lapucelle Friday #188

Orwellian.... 58Sunliner Thursday #102

Having read thru your posts at this thread, I can see that you are concerned. Very, very concerned. Hekate Thursday #75

I can pretty much guarantee that it won't. MarineCombatEngineer Thursday #78

You make it sound like charitable work and fostering unity and celebrating Jewish heritage are mutually exclusive. Beastly Boy Thursday #73

So the truth is that the murderer was at a Jewish event to hunt Jews. lapucelle Thursday #109

Of course that's the obvious retort. AloeVera Thursday #114

Yes, the truth is pretty obvious: the Jew-hating murderer who bellowed "Free, free Palestine" lapucelle Thursday #116

The operative word is "Palestine". And "Gaza". AloeVera Thursday #122

The word you chose was operative to a Jew hater who killed two random Jews. Beastly Boy Friday #129

This is a great question, mcar Friday #147

Yup Mossfern Friday #148

I think there's another reason for it mcar Friday #149

More from the article, including the name of the speaker. yardwork Thursday #43

That's odd. Are we looking at the same article as in the o/p? AloeVera Thursday #46

That's the topic of this subthread. yardwork Thursday #47

The article has been updated. AloeVera Thursday #60

Like you, I prefer researching to truly understand and make my thoughts about something so close to my Nanjeanne Thursday #58

Thank you. AloeVera Thursday #61

It's easy to grasp. It's just that some people will twist into pretzels to ration out compassion for Nanjeanne Thursday #64

Are you talking about compassion for the two victims of this murder? yardwork Thursday #84

I am talking about compassion for all innocent victims including these two young victims. Nanjeanne Thursday #90

Not only removed, but PPR'd also, MarineCombatEngineer Thursday #92

Did you research who the keynote speakers at the event were? lapucelle Thursday #112

Sorry I didn't respond immediately. Ive had you on ignore for such a long time and only saw this Nanjeanne Thursday #115

So when someone logs out and then logs back in, they see responses from folks on their ignore list? N/T lapucelle Thursday #117

That had me ROFLing. OilemFirchen Thursday #121

Yes if you aren't signed in you can see everyone's response. Saw yours. Signed in and removed you from ignore Nanjeanne Friday #137

That is so true. Good for you. But you do know your own name and can recognize it when you read a thread Nanjeanne Friday #154

God I love you. I'll never put you on ignore again. So entertaining! Nanjeanne Friday #162

I log in every time and the one DUer I have on ignore stays on ignore. yardwork Friday #141

I think you are still not understanding. If you aren't logged in NOONE can be on ignore since ignore is tied Nanjeanne Friday #151

I wasn't responding to you. yardwork Friday #153

Sorry! It's gotten so complicated I think I've landed in some alter universe. Nanjeanne Friday #156

Well, it doesn't have to be that complicated. yardwork Friday #175

My post about it getting complicated was about Ignore Lists, Signing Out, Seeing posts. It had Nanjeanne Friday #177

I just tried what you suggested, and you are correct, MarineCombatEngineer Friday #155

Whew never thought it was going to turn I to a thing! Nanjeanne Friday #157

LOL. MarineCombatEngineer Friday #159

And there is no "My Posts" tab if you're not logged. lapucelle Friday #152

If you're not logged in, MarineCombatEngineer Friday #160

Yes I know. But the poster wrote about some sort of "bat signal" that goes out lapucelle Friday #163

Ah, ok, I misunderstood your post. MarineCombatEngineer Friday #164

Uh reading the thread. You know your screen name Doncha? Nanjeanne Friday #166

Did a bat signal go out or did you take me off ignore? N/T lapucelle Friday #169

As I said I can't ignore you. You are so entertaining and make me laugh. We all need some of that! Nanjeanne Friday #170

He targeted the 2 people who were attending the event, MarineCombatEngineer Thursday #106

Quoting from wapo: AloeVera Thursday #107

So the argument is that he focused on a Jewish event at a Jewish museum, but it wasn't anti-Semitic attack lapucelle Thursday #118

He was targeting Zionism. AloeVera Thursday #124

He was definitely targeting specific people. Mosby Thursday #125

Then he is the lousiest shot I've ever seen. Beastly Boy Friday #127
