But if I do take it at face value, it isn't a good look for the Democrat voters. |
I did see some information before it was taken down..
https://i.postimg.cc/63bJ29tr/image.jpg The would-be shooter purports to be recruiter for Ukraine. The post above is supposed to be from his FB (you can see his picture under the American flag). Note there's also a seemingly random reference to Taipei in the top right... Google "Taipei 228 Memorial" and it produces interesting results. I'm not convinced he's all that he claims. His political postings are all over the place and yet he's still attached enough to reality that he's capable of taking action on his views. All that said, this isn't the actions of someone whose one man army has been going very well, so someone with something to prove maybe... Interestingly, NYT claims they interviewed him in the past: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/09/15/u...ect-routh.html Quote:
Spoiler: Tweets with the same phone # displayed above: https://i.postimg.cc/SxBcn0v2/weirdo.jpg His reply section on his X account (his activity) was very recently active (before his acct was killed off) and he @'s everyone it seems... anyone willing to listen, but only users of actual importance, because of course... Ever since the debate, the rhetoric has gotten worse, so not surprising it incentivizes the crazies to act and make themselves a focal point to separate themselves from the rest of the noise... they did get him alive, which is rare... so maybe needed answers will eventually come of that. Re: NYT Article; Contract mercenaries are a thing. Some people leave the military and they go that route and the US govt benefits because they don't have any involvement with the dirtier aspects. We know someone who used to be in the field, but it's common knowledge. The military is one part of a big industry... a sad one. As to whether political violence is acceptable, it's never acceptable, regardless of which party or candidate it targets... before this happened, I was saddened to see some of the directions posts and threads were going. I think it's fine to ask questions and to speculate, but there really does seem to be a thirst among some for a "something" to happen, like it's a form of entertainment... and indeed, something did. |
There is fear, division and hate being stoked up. Trump and his cronies were at it all last week. Did anyone really think everything was going to go peacefully and quietly. Violence could erupt at any moment

It’s just convenient that someone ‘tried to kill’ him the day his vp pick declares to the world that if they need to, they’ll make up stories to grab the attention of the country, Harris reaches 50% in the polls, Trump has a meltdown over Swift and it’s revealed that schools in Springfield are being shut down and going virtual because of the bomb threats being received off the back of the lies being spread about Haitians, it’s one mighty big distraction when they very handily needed one

What's convenient is a Democrat supporter can travel 650 miles from North Carolina to Florida, find one if trumps golf courses, hide, and then be lucky enough to do that on a day hes golfing there...very strange set of circumstances that, if you ask me. |
its going to be the norm the way everything is being stoked up, actions have consequences

There’s been a lot of speculation online about Ryan Routh’s political leanings and in particular his alleged links to Ukraine. Here’s what we know so far - Ryan Routh spent some time in Ukraine following Russia’s full-scale invasion in 2022. We’ve put pictures he posted on his own social media accounts through a facial recognition tool and identified him attending at least one event in Kyiv in support of Ukraine. A blog post about the war published at the time also identified Routh as "an American in his 50s who left his family and job behind to volunteer in Ukraine", along with a picture that bears a strong resemblance to him. Speaking to Newsweek Romania in 2022,, external Routh said he first came to Ukraine to fight, but was rejected due to his age – then 56 – and lack of combat experience. He then stayed to help get donations and attract volunteers. Routh told Newsweek that he was working with the International Legion – a Ukrainian military unit that is comprised of foreign volunteers. However, the Legion told the BBC that "Ryan Wesley Routh has never been part of, associated with, or linked to the International Legion in any capacity… Any claims or suggestions indicating otherwise are entirely inaccurate." |
I fear 'third time lucky.' :(

Some of his appearances in media (there's been more..): Spoiler: A warning that was posted about him on X back in June: Spoiler: There was another thread as well that was linked in that archive that I didn't screen before... basically, he tried to join some legion (it seems like in Ukraine), but they described him in good detail before the information started leaking saying they had rejected him from their unit because he appeared to have mental deficiencies. I don't know why they bother to scrub as people started archiving as soon as his name was out (I'm surprised how quickly). I guess to keep things from being shared too far and wide and getting out of hand in the immediate aftermath, but imo, having light shed on this individual is beneficial in the sense we see it for what he is... it's harder to make up conspiracies if the information is not being hidden. There's a picture of one of his homes in one of the media snippets from long ago... |
the attempted assassin was a Kamala Harris supporter
:rolleyes: |

it was a foiled attempt. The intent was certainly there. As it happens, the guy voted for trump in 2016 and 2020, so make of that what you will

It doesn't seem like they're affiliated with a party, as if their political ideology could be boiled down to simple common sense. I don't know that that is possible without him explicit stating "I affiliate with X", other than a specific candidate. He seems to be an Independent. They did latch onto the "Democracy is on the ballot" stuff when talking towards Kamala on X, but they spoke to all kinds of people. It was all over the place. I wouldn't be shocked if his actions were related to his views with Ukraine. It would be interesting to learn the point in which they began to be radicalized, how it started, etc... but we all know it started with being crazy and thirsting for being some kind of hero..
What I want to know is how he ended up with a full auto at any point in his life and is still walking the streets. Those are not at all common lol. That's where I can see a conspiracy occurring, because it's not at all normal to have a full auto anything in our homes... those are true weapons of war and not something a person would have unless maybe they're running some kind of military museum, have military links (this is where the conspiracies can begin...) or otherwise are in the business of arming others. It was in 2002, but that should've put him on some kind of list from that point on... and yet he was able to fly in and out of the country, move to Hawaii and visit all these places after that... and there's no questions being asked about potential terror links??... normally the media jumps when anything auto weapon is even mentioned.
