Re: Trump was shot today
A terrible tragedy. Shocking. I hope we never get to the stage here where people are killed for their political, or other, opinions. The divide is great in the US.

Re: Trump was shot today
Very sad and tragic when you can be shot down for your belief system. I liked Charlie Kirk. 
And the vile rhetoric being spewed by some on the left is disgusting and inexcusable! The word 'scum' comes to mind.

The FBI is releasing a video of the shooter in the Utah Valley shooting. The subject is seen jumping from the rooftop of a building after the shooting. Around 12 p.m. Mountain Time on September 10, 2025, the subject climbed up to a rooftop; after he shot and killed Charlie Kirk, he jumped off and ran away. He left a gun and ammunition in a wooded area near the university. Trace evidence collected from the rooftop scene included shoe impressions, a forearm imprint, and a palm print. Anyone with information in this case should call the FBI at 1-800-CALL-FBI or visit fbi.gov/utahvalleyshooting.

A suspect is in custody.
Main stream media named him as Tyler Robinson.
However FBI director Kash Patel mentioned only about arrest without naming name.

The suspect supposedly will be taken to court on Tuesday according to media.

More on the investigation: Investigators discovered a bolt-action rifle wrapped in a towel, and inscriptions — including one that read “Hey fascist! Catch!” — were engraved on casings found with the rifle, officials said. Read about what the engravings could mean.

The dynamics of why this is the case is subjective.
Left blame the right, and of course the right blame the left, meanwhile this is happening right across our western political landscape.
The WHITE refugee who fled Ukraine for the US and was fatally stabbed on a train carriage full of BLACK people who didn't even raise an eyebrow, much less attempt to help her tells a very sad story of how we as a society are beginning to lose our sense of humanity towards one another.
China must be really enjoying this.
This serves to reinforce the BIG BAD WEST notion to it's own people.

Re: Trump was shot today
Charlie is yet another modern day Jesus, hunted, persecuted and ultimately killed for harbouring his own views and sharing these views with others.
Really, how far have we come?
The far-left apparently "anti-facist " mob seem to consider this a win, but I think the vast majority of balanced people realise the left who claim to be down on guns really don't mind using guns themselves to murder their political foes, in front tof their wives and children even.
So long as our authorities continue to portray an unbalanced view of what constitutes for " extremist ideology " " racism " hate in general, this will continue. Tit for tat and progressively get worse.

Society are being targeted and falsely portrayed ...persecuted, in accordance with their political views, religious ideologies, and race.
The next step unfortunately is chaos and disorder, anarchism, the stuff of Terminator movies.
I think AI itself is biased, and this isn't helpful when we have lunatics justifying their extreme views based on the hate AI has dredged up for them to read and become radicalised with.
AI can be a good thing, but we aren't using it the way we should or could be.
We're exploiting it to our political advantage, both sides.
Humans again are to blame.
Greed..... The worst of humanities worst are what's guiding AI to educate potentially vulnerable citizens, those vulnerable to radicalisation.
Take a closer look at the top the shooter is wearing.
