Transgender ideology? Did they write UWU on the bullet?

[–] Jankatarch@lemmy.world 85 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Linux kernel source code was engraved in the bullet

Well, we got images of the primary suspect today, so I'm guessing we'll get more pics soon.

Here's what I think we know so far:

I'm guessing the perp isn't a student there, otherwise they would've been able to get a name from school records.

I guess we'll see how close I am, but in the meantime, I hope these sources are of interest to others.

lol bet they also found The Communist Manifesto engraved on a nano scale on the bullet casing.

[–] RedSnt@feddit.dk 12 points 15 hours ago

Like how the IDF keeps finding "Mein Kampf" strewn across Gaza.

[–] Wilco@lemmy.zip 19 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

They found a etching on a wall of Hillary Clinton naked that the shooter did while waiting as well ... it was Banksy quality.

[–] Taleya@aussie.zone 22 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

The bullet came from her emails!!

It was an inside job by a professional. There were two guys doing umpire signals to his immediate right. King pedo Karen just wants an excuse to declare martial law

[–] Rentlar@lemmy.ca 195 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Breaking News: the entire text of The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood was found to be engraved on bullet casings left at the scene, according to a source. So we should ban that book from all schools, fr fr.

This false flag operation is insanely piss poor. It's like they were all sat in a room and told one of them was going to be scarified to initiate a civil war and here is your rhetoric start immediately saying the exact same thing.

And who has the most to gain? Couch fucker picking off his presidential rivals...

transgender and antifascist ideology

transgender ... ideology

[Squidward voice, but angrier] NO, PATRICK, TRANSGENDER IS NOT AN IDEOLOGY... PREGNANT IS NOT AN IDEOLOGY EITHER.

[–] Sanctus@lemmy.world 149 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Yeah what the fuck. Just like Luigi's alleged engravings. It doesnt make any sense beyond an emotional response. Why take the time to engrave something no one will see? Its going faster than the speed of sound.

[–] vzqq@lemmy.blahaj.zone 91 points 1 day ago (9 children)

Typically you would engrave the casing. That goes nowhere near the target.

So yeah.

[–] Sanctus@lemmy.world 52 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (7 children)

Then to the same degree, why engrave the evidence to make it easier to track? It still doesnt make sense.

[–] frezik@lemmy.blahaj.zone 32 points 23 hours ago (16 children)

So this line of reasoning is a trap. People do dumb ass shit all the time for emotional reasons, including criminals. In fact, people doing dumb ass shit is so reliable that police investigative procedures are almost designed around it.

Early Bulletin Said Ammunition in Kirk Shooting Engraved With Transgender, Antifascist Ideology; Some Sources Urge Caution

https://www.wsj.com/livecoverage/charlie-kirk-shot/card/pdymd1sXXMSlVRhpvR4b

It sounds like a bulletin was indeed circulated, and it sounds like the WSJ is being pretty candid about the law enforcement response:

Law-Enforcement Officials Sow Confusion on Manhunt for Kirk Shooter / Contradictory public statements risk undermining confidence in investigation, law enforcement veterans say

https://www.wsj.com/us-news/charlie-kirk-shooting-manhunt-e7f3eae4

The WSJ is not going to have first hand access to the evidence, so they have to report (transparently!) what they're told by credible sources. In this case, it sounds like law enforcement


supposed to be credible


is not. It's a pretty tricky thing to report on.

[–] Four_mile_circus@lemmy.ml 7 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

Yeah, it's a funny thing. When you fire 1500 FBI agents because the previous administration assigned them to investigate your crimes and you're mad at them for not refusing, you bully hundreds more into quitting, and then you make it clear to the survivors they'll be fired if the results of their investigations don't support your political agenda... Well, the officers who stick around aren't the most competent, that's all.

But Lord, if there's anything that highlights the hypocrisy of the gun-fellating right, the fact they claim to be these he man gun owners but are so unfamiliar with how a bullet is supposed to look that they claimed a manufacturer's marks were trans propaganda...

Edit: yeah, never mind, the claim the engravings were manufacturer's marks was also misinformation and I fell for it.

Can you believe, once upon a tine long long ago The Wall Street Journal actually had integrity in journalism.

Now it's a billionaire's plaything.

One shot fired and there are multiple casings found? Yeah, this is bullshit.

[–] Warl0k3@lemmy.world 5 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago)

According to the WSJ there was just one spent round still chambered and three more in the magazine. So, still really stupid sounding as a theory but it's at least internally consistent.

[–] limer@lemmy.ml 114 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

In related news, doctors were amazed they kept pulling books and scrolls from the body, placed there by the bullets.

“It’s amazing” said the orange as quoted by the wsj, “apparently books like this can kill. I’m sure he could have survived the wound without the additional poisoning.”

In response to this, reaction forces were posed to raid the libraries of all elementary schools within the washington dc area

I thought WSJ was fake news according to trump...

[–] miss_demeanour@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 19 hours ago

What day is it, and how does it lick the rapist's boots?

[–] CidVicious@sh.itjust.works 90 points 1 day ago (5 children)

Not seeing other outlets report this. So yeah I'm skeptical.

[–] Unpeeled3828@sh.itjust.works 25 points 21 hours ago

Kinda like how people write shit on bombs meant for Gaza but on bullets? LMAO yes I don't believe that at all

I wonder what's supposedly written on it. I'll bet FCK NZI in the RUN DMC logo

[–] Fredselfish@lemmy.world 28 points 22 hours ago

Probably didn't even find the rifle responsible. More reason to believe it was a setup.

[–] DrFistington@lemmy.world 81 points 1 day ago (24 children)

Total BS. Engraving on a small, curved surface, legibly is hard as hell. Then that bullet is going to get grooved in a rifled barrel, and most likely deform or fragment on impact.

We should probably be talking about how Trump used a fucking AI video to address Charlie Kirk's death. There's a good chance Trump is doing this as a false flag

I wonder if ~~Jeff Bezos~~ Murdoch will ever see punishment for making his news media mouthpiece publish this lie?

I hope a trans person did shoot him and I hope they get away with it. Kirk made his living by terrorizing and dehumanizing queer folks and I’m happy he finally got to the FO stage. Hopefully seeing daddy get blown away will ensure his kid doesn’t grow up to be as bigoted and the lesson is learned.

[–] DrivebyHaiku@lemmy.ca 19 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Oh Gods I hope this isn't the case. The right would start foaming at the mouth and could start rounding us up as threats.

It's also... a little ghoulish to speak about a kid losing their parent that way. Whatever you think of the man his kid's grief isn't exactly something to celebrate. I get not mourning the man but celebrating his death isn't going to help us trans folks in the end. I have a feeling that this is going to get a whole lot worse for all of us as a people very quickly and as a whole we're already a group hanging on by our fingertips.
