As just another indicator of what an ignoramus @captfeelgood is, it is uncertain what Crooks’ true political leanings were:
[reuters.com]
A resident of Bethel Park, about an hour away from where the shooting occurred, Crooks was a registered Republican who would have been eligible to cast his first presidential vote in the Nov. 5 election in which Trump is challenging President Joe Biden. Public records show his father is a registered Republican and his mother a registered Democrat, and that as a 17-year-old Crooks made a $15 donation to a Democratic Party cause.
So he gave to a Democratic cause at 17 yet registered when eligible as a Republican.
Here’s more: [wtae.com]
Records show Crooks donated $15 to a pro-Democratic Party political action committee in January 2021. But months later, records show he registered to vote as a Republican.
Neighbors said they saw pro-Trump signs in the Crooks' yard as recently as several months ago.
“There absolutely was MAGA-supporting signs for a while,” Little said.
I guess one’s own bias will determine how to parse that. We see how @captfeelgood chose to parse such ambiguity. Right wing conspiracy parrot.
One other thing for any Democrats on here who may stumble across this post. While that twenty-year old shooter may have been a registered Republican, but towards the end had donated to a progressive PAC, which would suggest Crooks was influenced by progressive politics regardless of who he had registered to vote as. That's also an indicator it was progressive propaganda that influenced him to resort to violence.
Someone should tell @LovinLarge it is a combination of questionable rhetoric from both sides that result in violent deeds like that. Make no mistake, the needless fearmongering of some Democrats also contributed, and why do you think Biden backtracked on some of his past comments on the matter? [edition.cnn.com]
We"ve already had Trump as President for four years, and democracy still stood long after his term concluded. You people claim to not pay any attention to Trump because he lies, yet all you do in reality is fixate on every word that comes out of his mouth. His dictator comment was meant to upset you and your ilk, and of course LovinLarge is dumb enough to take that seriously, which Trump gets a kick out of. Besides, what true tyrant or dictator that you know of openly makes such a statement? Do you ever hear guys like Putin openly stating he's a dictator? That's because the real dictators out there don't advertise what they are. Stop being stupid lady, Trump is playing you for a fool and you just let him.
I'm fedup with the rhetoric from both extremes. The left are hardly the peaceful protesters she makes them out to be, as they have plenty of radicals who get confrontational too. A local BLM protest in my city back in June 2020 was proof of that, that was hardly a peaceful protest with them harassing and trying to pick fights with my neighbors simply because they were flying an American Flag. That's the problem in society nowadays, no one wants to owe up to their actions, and how they contribute to the current mess, it's always about what the other guy says and does.
While that sentiment itself is true, in particular nowadays, I could find no indication John Wilkes Booth was a Democrat though. He belonged to a political party called the Know Nothings.-

It's the very violence you promote coming back to haunt you. Trump would have been assassinated long ago except all the kooks are on your side.
Jan 6th ring a bell, right wing bullshitter? Trumpists didn’t get their way and look what happened.
The Southern racist Democrats all jumped ship to the GOP long ago. They’re the ones with a woody for states rights. It’s almost as if Goldwater and Nixon never existed nor boll weevil Democrats allied with Reagan in your ahistorical calumny. At least you got @Trajan61 to cheerlead your nonsense.
And as for Booth’s political affiliation see:
[factcheck.org]
John Wilkes Booth, who assassinated Republican President Abraham Lincoln in 1865, was affiliated with the anti-immigrant Know-Nothing Party and was a supporter of slavery and the Confederacy. Social media posts claim without evidence that Booth was a Democrat.
Even if he was a Democrat the cartoon is stupid and represents your inability to discern historical truth from fiction. You’re just a parrot.
Hopefully it backfires and Trump wins by a landslide!
The South rose again by subverting Lincoln’s party after civil and voting rights were passed in the 60s. The cartoon makes no sense historically, not that such things matter to you and @captfeelgood, who is a font of ignorant rube propaganda.
