At least 13 people were injured, five critically in two separate mass shootings at homeless encampments in Minneapolis, Minnesota on Monday. The first shooting took place at East Lake Street and Interstate 35W around 11am local time.

    Let me guess what the political affiliation was this time, the same as it ever is?

    Not saying Fox studios should be burned to the ground, but It would be a shame if it didn’t happen.

    Y’know. That’s one way to end homelessness. Just kill everyone who is homeless. Voila, no homelessness.

    You become homeless? Straight to the firing line for you.

    I mean, other countries did it by lifting up their citizens with social programs and housing projects and whatnot. Admittedly, I would prefer this much more than America’s method.

    But this does seem quite America of a solution to the homeless “problem”…

    Can we go ahead and label fox news as a terrorist organization? They are inciting violence against americans and their viewers are acting on it.

    Clearly the administration will do something about these right wing lunatics…

        Oh i dunno, maybe the definition of Terrorist.

        “unlawfully using violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.”

        The unlawfully part is to be questioned since they are using hate speech and hate speech was deemed protected by the supreme court in the past. But apparently the administration doesn’t like that, so the supreme court will probably deem hate speech is not protected anymore since they are bought and paid for by the GOP.

          “unlawfully using violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.”

          The key part you are missing here is the “unlawfully” part. As the mouthpiece of the current regime they are clearly not beholden to the law (whats left of it) in the us.

    The right has been frothing at the mouth for ANY EXCUSE to enact their twisted murder fantasies about minorities, this was enough for them

    The right are nothing more than a rabid collection of genocidal freaks, and now they own the fucking government

    Speaking on Fox & Friends Friday about Charlie Kirk’s death, Trump admitted that he isn’t all that concerned about right-wing radicals.

    “Well, I’ll tell you something that’s gonna get me in trouble, but I couldn’t care less. The radicals on the right oftentimes are radical ‘cause they don’t want to see crime, they don’t want to see crime,” Trump said. “They’re saying, ‘We don’t want these people coming in, we don’t want you burning our shopping centers, we don’t want you shooting our people in the middle of the street.’”

    “The radicals on the left are the problem,” he continued, “and they’re vicious and they’re horrible and they’re politically savvy.”

    That Fox host might lose their job, like Kimmel, because the law is equally applied. /s

      What law? ABC is a garbage company for doing what they did and we should all boycott them but they didn’t break the law.

        I already wrote to them, and told them that after decades of being my first choice for news, I would be shifting my news viewing to NBC.

        I further told them that I would be cancelling Hulu/ Disney+, and would pirate their content from now on, without commercials.

        And I will.

          You should write to the people who advertise on the network … If the advertising dollars dry up they can’t be on air…

        Trump’s FCC said they were looking into punishments for ABC because of Jimmy Kimmel, and many ABC associates are currently waiting for FCC approval for their mergers. That is clear regulatory pressure/corruption.
