A 25-year-old bank employee named Connor Sturgeon opened fire at his workplace in downtown Louisville, Kentucky, on Monday while livestreaming the attack that left five members of the bank leadership dead and nine others injured. {Direct Rumble Link} The shooting took place at Old National Bank, Sturgeon was killed by police after a shootout, according to interim Louisville Metro Police Chief Jacquelyn Gwinn-Villaroel.
Soon after the murders the shooters profile on social media began surfacing. Connor Sturgeon profiled as an unstable wokester identifying with he/him pronouns. Sturgeon learned he was about to be fired from the bank, according to CNN, who said he also left a note for his parents and a friend explaining his intention to go and shoot up the bank.
Police are trying to determine what triggered his attack. Obviously, the shooter was unstable, and reports of his psychological condition identify him as prone to depression. CNN REPORTS:
[…] In a 2018 college essay posted to the website CourseHero, a user identified as a University of Alabama student named Connor Sturgeon wrote that he had had trouble fitting in at school.
“My self-esteem has long been a problem for me,” the essay read. “As a late bloomer in middle and high school, I struggled to a certain extent to fit in, and this has given me a somewhat negative self-image that persists today. Making friends has never been especially easy, so I have more experience than most in operating alone.”
Being 70 it’s easy to see when society changed for the worse.
Beginning was Fall 1962 when school prayer (Lord’s Prayers) was banned taking G-D out of school–and I’m Jewish.
1964 LBJ’s War on Poverty rewarding Black unmarried moms who wouldn’t/couldn’t name the father with welfare, government programs destroying the Black family.
Late 60’s anti Vietnam war protests leading to the destruction of all our major institutions.
THE BIG ONE–1971 feminist Women’s Liberation Movement liberating women from men and children pursuing their self-indulgences leading to destruction of the family/active parenting.
Early 70’s ‘No Fault Divorce’
1973 abortion legalization.
1970’s pro drug legalization, pro homosexual marriage, relaxed values, free love, ramped up birth control, calling teachers by their first name–less respect, formality.
Late 70’s-early 80’s massive numbers of women leaving the home entering the workforce with strangers raising the kids in daycare/nannies.
If I pick two absolute children destroyers I pick LBJ’s War on Poverty and the Women’s Liberation Movement.
Women raising kids without dad or parenting them with strangers so they could be self-centered……..what could possibly go wrong absent active parental care?
I agree with your assessment. I point to the women’s liberation movement as a significant factor in our cultural decline and usually get blank stares. It’s become so ingrained. But then, I guess, the destruction of the family was the goal.
Isn’t ironic that the trans society is destroying the WLM? I don’t understand where these women are today. They don’t seem to be fighting transgenderism. 9 biological males have been rewarded “Woman of the Year”.
I am a proud woman, but I have NEVER been part of the WLM. I’m just curious where they are now.
The loud’n’proud feminists of yore placed the progressive agenda ahead of women. So they remain silent.
And that is truly such a shame. There needs to be more outstanding young women like Riley Gaines. She is such a wonderful role model.
Late 60’s anti Vietnam war protests? perhaps one should consider the absurd war itself as a contributor to the u.s. decline, like the string of pointless wars particularly in this century.
ukraine will be the capper and mark the official dethroning of the u.s. as the “indispensable country.”
The Vietnam War was the war of my generation and was far more complex in its origins than most people realize. Certainly our involvement originated from a false flag incident. And it was a complicated business as it went on. Its ramifications may, in fact, have been quite different from what a lot of people think. I was as not fully informed at the time, but the war protestors were even more delusional.
This is true. I was there.
Well stated. When Walter Cronkite decided the war was immoral and he reported his version of the war news changed forever in the United States. Lying by omitting counterpoint is reporting.
Absolutely and Cronkite is still worshipped by that generation and the legacy media. Just my opinion, Walter Cronkite gave birth to the horrible state of the news business today.
Walter – The Biggest Liar In America – Cronkite … “reported” the news the way he wanted you to know – what – he wanted you to know.
A true American – pure evil – traitor !!!
As a young 17 yr old Paratrooper who served in Vietnam 69-70 I was a volunteer but where this country and Johnson went wrong was when they started sending DRAFTEES to the slaughter. I never agreed with that and still don’t today. What to hell was some young guy living on a farm or in the city doing running around in the jungle trying to kill TERRORISTS? And that’s what they were?
I’ll never forgive the dumbacratic incels that sent those young men to the slaughter. And that’s what they were, DUMPACRAPS. who done it. That’s why I have a viceral hate for that party today! We had enough volunteers to carry out that task, as I was, so Johnson was a GD Murderer. So was his entire foreign policy team starting with McNamara!
I’ll go to my maker with much bitterness and sadness in my heart for all those youg GIs who sacrificed their lives on the altar of powerfull dumpacrap turds like the two mentioned above. I only hope we can salvage something out of the greatest experiment in the History of mankind, the USA, before we’re completely obliterated from the face of the earth as a nation under the present crop of a Mentally deranged Alzheimers patient and his band of sexual and moral deviants?
Amen! I was USAF at the time and I was furious about the conduct of the war and the draft. I still get furious!
We could have ended that war in 9 months to a year without using nuclear weapons. What a pathetic bunch of weak-kneed leaders we had (have) in D.C.
THANKS FOR YOUR POST!
But it was the “cool” thing to do at the time. It’s sickening to look back on!
Until needed again.
Yes millions being enslaved is such a wonder. Such sentiments reflect why we are in the state we are in. Your nobility and values are showing skippy, here have a Bud.
I wouldn’t touch a “Bud” with Oblowme’s lips.
Where are all the Billie Jean Kings, Chris Everett, Serena Williams etc? Their silence speaks volumes doesn’t it? We need more gutsy, courageous women like Riley Gaines to lead the charge.
They are hoisting up men pretending to be women. They, the uppity white liberal female, are the ones pushing this garbage harder and faster than any other group. The only people patting themselves on the back harder and with more gratification than the confused men, are the uppity white liberal females pushing it.
Again, just look at Alissa Heinerscheid.
Okay…I look at her….I don’t know that I beleive she is an uppity white liberal female. She reminds me more of Ardern from New Zealand who Im think was a man doing the Mulvaney thing…although may have gone a little further with surgeries or drugs. But THAT….was NO woman! Hmmm…M. Obama?
Dave, as ugly as she is, she is a woman. Give credit where credit is due….the bar is low, yes.
Wanna bet she us the mother to three surrogate children. Explain to me what that means.
Even though I did not mention that, that was one of my thoughts from information gathered when commenting.
Alissa Hemorrhroid!!
They are too afraid to speak out about it I suspect.
I act confused and ask questions. So how are women supposed to ever win a physical sporting event again? How will this impact sports scholarship for biological women and college access? How does any of this help women? It seems to me women are being replaced by biological men, I am so confused.
Would it not be terrifyingly ironic if reasonable heterosexual white women became as despised by the ‘left’ as we old white heterosexual men? Or is it already a case of fait accompli?
The Left are equal opportunity haters.
They hate conservative, heterosexual women just as much as they do conservative, heterosexual men.
Just another form of crazy democrats and they fill our kid’s heads with hate, craziness, stupidity, no God, no rights, no guns, riots, murder, fights, bricks, poison shots……list goes on and on.
I was in favor of women getting equal pay for equal work and access to professional education. (I’m of the generation where women attempting to go to med, law school or engineering were actually harassed.)
Now I understand the consequences of those supposed innocent demands. Married men were supposed, at that time, to be the sole providers of their family with their wives home caring for multiple children and maybe an elderly parent or relative. Also, they were expected to be loyal to the company for their working lives and the company loyal to them. Thus they were accorded higher salaries than single women because of their greater economic responsibilities.
The professions were “closed” to women who were expected to eventually marry and leave the work force to care for the resulting children (and to do the charitable work of the community via church and secular institutions). Their leaving would result in the loss of those highly educated and necessary members of society.
It was a system that, in the main, led to a child-centered society and societal stability. Men who left their wives were scorned, lost custody of their children but had to support them. Women who abandoned their families were outcasts and had to take menial jobs away from all societal benefits. Therefore, both sexes had strong incentives to make their marriages work. The children benefited the most.
All institutions worked to support the stable family. Sadly, the opposite is true now and we have the most unhappy, unstable populace of all time.
When was that buttercup?
She is correct. It was an assault on the nuclear family and Western traditional societal values that had existed for centuries.
It began with suffrage and escalated with the feminazi movement (led by gay women, I might add ie Steinnam) of the late 60’s / early 70’s, buttercup.
Left out commies. Look up Betty Friedan, if in doubt.
You seem too young to understand. It was the greatest generation after WWII in late 50’s prior to JFK’s assignation! Margaret is correct in her analysis. Born in 1940, I lived those times & it was the “best of times”! Certainly better than now!
50s and 60s
The 1940’s & ’50’s, a time in which I lived, so that I can speak from experience. Still true in the early 1960’s until Betty Fridan and Women’s Liberation.
I know when it was. It was before people had to abandon their families, their obligations, their responsibilities , to ‘find themselves’. It was before we knew that the state actually owned our children and would indoctrinate them before we could even teach them. It was long before we were told that killing infants was better than raising them and decades before we knew that God made so many mistakes and that man could do a better job, and oh what a utopia man is creating!
1960’s and prior decades; every mother in my 1950’s neighborhood was a stay-at-home mom and most of the men had quite ordinary, working-class jobs. Most were one-car families (my Mom didn’t even drive until I was 10 years old). Many of my teachers were working mothers, but they went home when their kids did so there was no day-care involved (in fact I don’t remember hearing that term in the 50’s). Those women who did not marry early on did work but generally quit when they became pregnant with their first child and some resumed their careers (nurses, etc) when the kids were older.. In my opinion it was a better life for kids. My Mom was always friends with all of the neighboring mom’s; none of them had an alcohol or drug problem although that probably existed somewhere. The only drug users we ever heard of were far-off beatniks in NYC. Overall most people were pretty happy with the setup. In those days most kids in “care” were actual orphans. Now it is almost entirely drug-related. This is certainly much worse for children, and I don’t see how this is an improvement for women.
In 1970, only 17% of women worked outside the home. 83% were Homemakers and wives.
Maybe they were always really just a part of what is happening now…cause they sure don’t seem to have a voice or care now about women’s rights. Maybe most of those women…really weren’t even women and they were really Mulvaney’s that had not come out of their closet. Bottom line, those of us with a brain know this is insanity, and will not consume America, they…or it or whatever the frick these things are, they are in the minority. There’s just a huge attempt to try to get us to believe this is the way the country really is and it’s the majority. Like everything else coming from mainstream…its a lie, a facade, an illusion created by agendas attempting to create a state of surrender, or loss. Not going to happen and I at least for one will never, ever accept!
The response from some young women today is to embrace a traditional role as wife, mother, and home keeper. It has always disturbed me that the Marxists were so successful in denigrating the role women play in society by destroying the value of femininity and motherhood. The have-it-all mentality has created so many fractured people, relationships, families, and now society, that millions of people wander through their lives lost, as rudderless ships. They have been told that they have no power without the ability to be everything to everyone at all times. As a result, more children live in “mixed” families than live in their original two-parent families.
Good for you Michelle. I suppose we could be friends if we met, and that doesn’t take anything away from your feminine gifts. I see that the world “devolves” such that women rose up from the 1920s on a lie, and then the lie turns on them and they cannot see how cornered the feminist is now.
revolutions always eat their own.
They are cowering in fear of not fitting in with the latest, you name it trend. For all their braggadocio I believe 99 out of 100 WLM women were simply following the rest of the sheep.
Their focus is one- dementional … the slaughter of any baby, any time, for any reason … and … making a fortune selling the itty, bitty pieces parts.
One only has to go back 3/4 days in the news to see how they perpetuate that destruction and her name is Alissa Heinerscheid, the VP of Marketing for AB, particularly the brand Bud Light.
The site is acting up. Every time I type women’s lib it started on a new line.
Anyway, there was a twofer for women’s lib: creating distrust between the sexes, and
making women that were perfectly content as stay at home moms feel they were being
“left out”.
Conveniently, it happened around the same time as the industrial plants closing down.
The ones that allowed the moms to stay at home and dad to bring home the not insubstantial
pay.
Lose, lose for the little guy. Win, win for those wanting to keep the tax beast fed.
It was always the goal of Marxists.
I’m an early 50’s model also, you didn’t mention the mass influx of illegal aliens. It had and is having an enormous effect on society. This and everything you stated seems to be part of the plan to destroy America.
I would add the child labor laws to that list. They were never about protecting children but always about protecting the unions.
I agree….I grew up picking berries, beans, babysitting, any job to make money for my school clothes. It made me a better person knowing how to manage my money. I am a stronger person for doing so. I worked every single summer for my small wages.
Kids need to have jobs.
A kid with a job receiving the respect of a working person gains a sense of personal value.
All the decent summer jobs are taken by illegals.
It’s true, but the reason is that kids, at least in my suburb, began to have hefty allowances beginning in the 1980’s and turned their noses up at McDonald’s jobs. Illegals are glad to have them and are polite besides.
Agreed bill. I would add the unionizing of federal and state workers was tectonic.
didn’t realize until now the coincidence of the school prayer ruling with Nov 22, 1962 when the 5th column asserted its will.
The list you cite is contained in the Communist goals that were read on the floor of Congress that were to be used to destroy America:
CURRENT COMMUNIST GOALS
1. U.S. acceptance of coexistence as the only alternative to atomic war.
2. U.S. willingness to capitulate in preference to engaging in atomic war.
3. Develop the illusion that total disarmament [by] the United States would be a demonstration of moral strength.
4. Permit free trade between all nations regardless of Communist affiliation and regardless of whether or not items could be used for war.
5. Extension of long-term loans to Russia and Soviet satellites.
6. Provide American aid to all nations regardless of Communist domination.
7. Grant recognition of Red China. Admission of Red China to the U.N.
8. Set up East and West Germany as separate states in spite of Khrushchev’s promise in 1955 to settle the German question by free elections under supervision of the U.N.
9. Prolong the conferences to ban atomic tests because the United States has agreed to suspend tests as long as negotiations are in progress.
10. Allow all Soviet satellites individual representation in the U.N.
11. Promote the U.N. as the only hope for mankind. If its charter is rewritten, demand that it be set up as a one-world government with its own independent armed forces. (Some Communist leaders believe the world can be taken over as easily by the U.N. as by Moscow. Sometimes these two centers compete with each other as they are now doing in the Congo.)
12. Resist any attempt to outlaw the Communist Party.
13. Do away with all loyalty oaths.
14. Continue giving Russia access to the U.S. Patent Office.
15. Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States.
16. Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American institutions by claiming their activities violate civil rights.
17. Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers’ associations. Put the party line in textbooks.
18. Gain control of all student newspapers.
19. Use student riots to foment public protests against programs or organizations which are under Communist attack.
20. Infiltrate the press. Get control of book-review assignments, editorial writing, policymaking positions.
21. Gain control of key positions in radio, TV, and motion pictures.
22. Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all forms of artistic expression. An American Communist cell was told to “eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings, substitute shapeless, awkward and meaningless forms.”
23. Control art critics and directors of art museums. “Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive, meaningless art.”
24. Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them “censorship” and a violation of free speech and free press.
25. Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio, and TV.
26. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as “normal, natural, healthy.”
27. Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with “social” religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity which does not need a “religious crutch.”
28. Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the ground that it violates the principle of “separation of church and state.”
29. Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old-fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis.
30. Discredit the American Founding Fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the “common man.”
31. Belittle all forms of American culture and discourage the teaching of American history on the ground that it was only a minor part of the “big picture.” Give more emphasis to Russian history since the Communists took over.
32. Support any socialist movement to give centralized control over any part of the culture–education, social agencies, welfare programs, mental health clinics, etc.
33. Eliminate all laws or procedures which interfere with the operation of the Communist apparatus.
34. Eliminate the House Committee on Un-American Activities.
35. Discredit and eventually dismantle the FBI.
36. Infiltrate and gain control of more unions.
37. Infiltrate and gain control of big business.
38. Transfer some of the powers of arrest from the police to social agencies. Treat all behavioral problems as psychiatric disorders which no one but psychiatrists can understand [or treat].
39. Dominate the psychiatric profession and use mental health laws as a means of gaining coercive control over those who oppose Communist goals.
40. Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and easy divorce.
41. Emphasize the need to raise children away from the negative influence of parents. Attribute prejudices, mental blocks and retarding of children to suppressive influence of parents.
42. Create the impression that violence and insurrection are legitimate aspects of the American tradition; that students and special-interest groups should rise up and use [“]united force[“] to solve economic, political or social problems.
43. Overthrow all colonial governments before native populations are ready for self-government.
44. Internationalize the Panama Canal.
45. Repeal the Connally reservation so the United States cannot prevent the World Court
While the destructive power of the items you listed cannot be underestimated, I think the last decade and the COVID years have been unusually destructive to kids. You have relentless “catastrophe” propaganda being pushed on kids, starting with global warming and moving on to general environmental destruction and finally to COVID. On top of that, you have the whole LBGTetc aparatus subjecting kids to ideologies that make them question their place in the world and their own identifies, all while trying to separate them from their parents and support structures. Finally, with the complete domination of social media, kids have spaces where they can mutually reinforce these pathologies outside of the view of their parents. Grooming teachers and other adults can also isolate out children from parents to further push the pathologies.
Organizations that may have once tried to stabilize kids (schools, doctors, psychogists, therapists, coaches) are now committed to the same Leftist pathologies. All of this results in kids, teens, early adults with significant mental illness and no pathways to happiness. Religion might have once helped here, but as you mentioned God is not welcome in so many places now. With the despair induced by a fatalistic worldview unredeemed by God, and with no prospects for help, suicide (including “death by cop”) and “going out in a blaze of glory” seem like reasonable alternatives.
We are still a mostly good and decent society, we have a profoundly sick segment that is growing rapidly. May God have mercy on us all.
Almost 50 and I used to tell my father the beginning of the end was the hippies and while 60s counter culture movement. Thanks for affirming what I felt
The Making of a Counter Culture, by Theodore Roszak
(D)eath to America!
Goes back even farther, see Woodrow Wilson and the Federal Reserve and Federal income tax.
Also…probably one of the biggest events during that time which had a huge impact on the nation’s psyche was the JFK assisination. This brought the nation down in vibration, frequency, spirit, emotion…it was as though we were all stabbed through the heart! And this was one of their(deepstate) biggest moves in history…and got away with it!
Woke/liberated women were brainwashed into giving up their most cherished gift – soft nurturing of children. I guess its a choice, but the Daycare handling the major part of a child’s day, and mommy having to ‘Schedule’ quality time with the kid, involving spoiled overindulgence, has produced a whole upcoming generation of narcissists. This can’t be good.
Yes. Restaurants are overrun with tired, bored, squalling little children having their “family time” with their frazzled working parents. We who had children in the 1960’s were too poor to go out to dinner except for twice a year. When we did, we got sitters to allow us some quality time as a couple (when we talked about, you guess it, the kids!). Otherwise, meals were served at home, the kids bathed and in bed at a sensible hour. We all benefitted from sane routines.
In a nutshell,
Liberal agenda extinguishes flame under melting pot, ingredients cool and separate. Now each ingredient is treated as a stand alone, no cohesion.
Skat.
Successfully murdered JFK, created draft dodgers, created hippie movement, created Woodstock generation, created Marxist professors and pot-smoking schools, created many vectors of “America is wrong” movements, caused early formations of the political UniParty, created massive corruption in Washington DC, created an opportunity for “savior” politicians and fraud; created opportunity for Valerie to create Barack with Soros money, created AMERICA must be TRANSFORMED!
Yes and a lot happened in Laurel Canyon:

Thank you for your perspective. Good summary.
Dead on! Great post!
Bill. Thank you for the excellent list. I’m a few years older than you and a female (duh). I was fortunate enough to be a stay-at-home Mom to my three kids – it was the best job I ever had.
The drudgery of young child care is endless and, face it, though you love your children with a white-hot love, toddlers’ conversations are not stimulating.
The good news: a bunch of little kids is a great way to keep your figure, the lifting, the carrying, the laundry, the shopping was good for restoring a figure after child-bearing.
Yeah, I can see it. I married late in life. My step daughter has two baby daddies. God bless the kids but they don’t have a chance. I do what I can but there’s only so much you can do when you see them once a week.
same age as you, I agree 100% with your analysis…my parents were absolutely horrified by the 60’s and I didn’t enjoy them either….so many destructive things developed during that decade, came to fruition in the 70’s and the last 40 years have been an accelerating decline and destruction of what our country was meant to be. So glad I was able to enjoy the comparative normalcy and culture of the 50’s. When TV’s showed up in the 50’s, my mom said it was the beginning of the end of the civilization. She was pretty prescient about some things…
Absolutely everything you mentioned are tools used in Marxist takeovers.
THANK YOU!!!
Excellent summary of the insanity then – that guaranteed todays destruction.
One important detail … the reason many married w/children women went to work in the 1970’s – Affirmative Action & Quotas … it was necessary … we had to protect our families … overnight – white, heterosexual men were worth ZERO!!! … black females were 2 quota counts; black men 1 quota count; white females 1 quota count.
Government mandates imposed AA/Q counts on all businesses … our husbands lost their jobs, couldn’t get hired & knew they’d never get promoted … the wives went to work to supplement the family money – NOT earn extra money – just made up the difference of the husband’s lost income … plus … new childcare expenses !!!
The majority of the companies that existed then – have been destroyed.
Woke is now destroying companies.
RATS. ONLY. DESTROY. !!!
Being close to your age I would add one thing to your list, getting rid of the draft. I spent 20 years in the military and was a volunteer from the start (but I had my draft card). I always thought that if nothing else it gave people an idea what they never wanted to do. For others it gave them an education and skillset that could be used in Civilian life.
Imagine, if you will, living in a world where you have to identify your pronouns…
I was in banking for 13 years, back when we had no desktop computers and we used typewriters, and I never once felt a desire to shoot up my bank or co-workers or customers.
Strangle a few, maybe…
The democrat cult preaches VIOLENCE and Maxine is a perfect example of that. Look at Portland, Oregon just one city….antifa paid by democrats to destroy the city, steal, murder, rob, brick throwing, fires…that is because they have no God in their lives, just hate.
My wife was a VP in a major bank back then,…… when the biggest threat was a criminal robbing the bank (FBI said to let’em take the loot so they wouldn’t shoot),… not a mentally deranged Misfit Ideologue going Postal on Mgmt cuz he couldn’t cope with Reality.
In one of Scott Adams podcasts he states that he knows from private conversations that any resume’ that includes preferred personal pronouns is likely to be TRASHED by the reviewer. Why? Simple. Because anyone like that, besides showing that they are an easily propagandized idiot, is far more likely to be litigious.
Someone (Charles Payne?) also pointed out that those will be the people most likely not to get along with anyone and cause problems.
Narcissists. The curse of our time.
I sometimes wonder about the other factors which FORCE them to hire such people.
A few contacts I have, working for the companies’ accounts I manage, are forced to include the pronouns in their email signatures. By forced- they are given rewards for including them. One of the companies has a link next to the pronouns (it’s a signature template they are required to use) with a question mark that says “What’s this?” One of my contacts has told me they (and others are looking for new jobs, the over the top wokism has gotten to them).
I have never clicked the link…I am sure it routes the user to a propaganda site.
Sounds like that lone shooter (in upstate NY?) who live-streamed the attack and had been communicating online with a (former) Eff Bee Eye…
Everything about all of these minority/victimhood claims is about instability. Unstable people are malleable people who can be driven to commit violence on command. Encourage and push transgenderism? Now you see they are building an ARMY.
https://www.wkyt.com/2023/04/11/i-just-dont-understand-neighbors-gunman-react-louisville-mass-shooting/
Read carefully. All trans aren’t brave enough to identify themselves. This man was just another example of a mentally ill, gender confused person who wanted to make as many people as possible just as miserable as he himself was.
Unfortunately, they are building an army within the US Army, too.
When you give up on traditional religion…your assumptions have to go somewhere. This New Religion…produces anxious, angry, paranoid, despondent…and ultimately violent…disciples. When you self-actualize as a victim…solutions to victimhood become the enemy. Let us pray for the four souls who lost their lives to this zealot.
….and the parents?
Imagine if people didnt vax their kids, grew a garden and fed them only non processed foods, home schooled their kids, made them do work, learn a trade, no electronics, where would our youth be today?
I grew up similar and had a loving family, no anger, we loved life and enjoyed each day. Had God in our lives and that brings love and happiness…no hate ever.
Sounds like the Amish.
A person without God is not able to keep the demonic temptations away from his heart. The murderer plotted the murders and carried them out. The narrative is out there that his sports injuries could have been a contributing factor. Not in my mind. We always focus first on “man’s” excuses. The real issue is the LACK of GOD in our public…apparently, he also says he was not well adjusted in high school…oh please, none of us are well adjusted in high school. Without God, people are much at the mercy of all kinds of worldly pressures and failure. When God was removed from the public schools and square, we did nothing…and now we (believers) are seeing the consequences of our INACTION. When good people do nothing….evil will succeed. We, as believers, have sat on the side lines doing little to nothing…we use the excuses: very busy, will get fired, will be cancelled, not my business, God says we should love everyone. And we do nothing. We seem to be full of doubt, lack courage, and “helpless”…doesn’t that slap the face of God…He has given us the greatest power in all life, and we deny it. God have mercy on this wicked and mean world. Holy Spirit help us to remember who we are in Christ Jesus, help us to be unafraid and move forward with courage, give wisdom and strength to walk through these dark and dangerous times. Thank you for what You did at the Cross for all us…warts and all. Blessings
It’s the meds that no one is able to talk about because big pharma keeps data a secret and sure to health confidentiality no one can discuss. 100000% in my mind. Some meds actually state as possible adverse effect as “HOMICIDAL IMPULSE”.
I couldn’t agree more. Bang on correct

He posted threats on Social Media. Why can’t these threats be announced to the site and sent on to the proper authorities. These sites need penalties for not stopping this type of behavior.
Gee, isn’t it interesting that in almost every single case of this type, it’s some it, he, she, they, them piece of crap…never Trumper that is the perpetrator. Been a long time since someone from pur side has gone insane and done this. But of course! See, they can control these mindless nut cases cause for the most part, they created them for their agenda. Gun legislation for example. They are products of some type of MK Ultra type mind control crap that the IC has been using for decades. The real purpose I beleive is to get pur guns and do away with the Second Amendment. Hillary must be trying to crawl outbbof last pant suit knowing that by now…she would’ve already accomplished that! Thanks to the Greatest President of all time…thats been halted, at least for now!
It is amazing the information you don’t find on these cases. With everyone commenting, and this person a bank employee and basketball star, you know there should be relevent comments being made by many many people. You don’t see these comments.
I wonder why? /s
Believe me, public response is being recorded. Tallied. “They” are getting better and better and predicting and learning how to manipulate us.
Trump found a way to transcend that. Saying the same thing over and over for hour long presentation in mega grassroots rallies. Opening our eyes to the manipulation of t “They” the Cabal that really wants to rule us.
Sounds like a conspiracy theory, doesn’t it. No — it is happening right in front of our eyes — almost following the script to the letter predicted by George Orwell in 1984.
The kook we learned about in school, that we were told was a crazy paranoid politician about communists — McCarthy. Not only have we learned, he was correct with his accusations back then, he is correct now.
We all want to find someway to put these shooters into a cubbyhole and dismiss them as a fluke. But these are our children, frustrated, brainwashed, manipulated by population based psyops right in front of our noses.
White men are trying to live while being told to die. every attempt to make up for being white is killing them.
Why was this guy a misfit? Why was he about to be fired?
Grew up in a stable family, worked at this bank in summers in college, took the bank’s “leadership” course, made every effort to “participate” socially, star basketball & track athlete, good looking, had trouble getting a date & on & on.
Yet he didn’t like being fired & sought & shot bank leadership. We’ve seen workplace mass shooting way before Columbine. It isn’t “new.”
What was he following/
doing on the internet? I think the internet is a key cause in the up-tick in mass murders.
It was Jan. 10, 1963, that Congressman Albert S. Herlong. Jr. from Florida read the list of 45 Communist goals for America into the Congressional Record. The purpose of him reading this was to gain insight into liberal elite ideas and strategies for America that sound awfully familiar today.
The list is attributed to Cleon Skousen, researcher and author of “The Naked Communist.”
Do any of these hit close to home?
Here’s the list:
1. U.S. should accept coexistence as the only alternative to atomic war.
2. U.S. should be willing to capitulate in preference to engaging in atomic war.
These encapsulate the Kennan Doctrine, which advocated for the “containment” of communism. Establishment figures supporting the amoral containment policy at least implicitly worked with the communists in scaring the wits out of the American people concerning atomic war.
They don’t want you to see this … Big Tech does its best to limit what news you see. Make sure you see our stories daily — directly to your inbox.
President Ronald Reagan undid the doctrine when he took an aggressive stand against the Evil Empire by backing freedom fighters from around the world that were struggling against the left-wing communist jackboot. As a result, the Soviet Union and its satellites imploded, a considerable and unexpected setback to the international communist edifice.
3. Develop the illusion that total disarmament by the U.S. would be a demonstration of “moral strength.”
The nuclear freeze advocates supported a freeze on
4. Permit free trade between all nations regardless of Communist affiliation and regardless of whether or not items could be used for war.
Today, there are calls to end the embargo on the slave island of Cuba, there were complaints about the embargo against Iraq, and the U.S., not Saddam Hussein, was blamed for the suffering of the Iraqi people. Would they have advocated for free trade with Hitler and his National Socialist regime?
5. Extend long-term loans to Russia and Soviet satellites.
6. Provide American aid to all nations regardless of Communist domination.
Such aid and trade over decades contributed greatly to the left-wing communist liquidation of over 100 million people worldwide, according to the well-documented “Black Book of Communism.”
This aid and trade marks a shameful chapter in American history. Without the aid and trade, the left-wing international communist behemoth would have imploded on its own rot a lot sooner and umpteen millions would have been saved from poverty, misery, starvation and death.
7. Grant recognition of Red China and admission of Red China to the U.N.
Not only did President Jimmy Carter fulfill this goal but he also betrayed America’s allies in Nicaragua, El Salvador, Iran, Afghanistan, Angola and elsewhere.
8. Set up East and West Germany as separate states in spite of Khrushchev’s promise in 1955 to settle the Germany question by free elections under supervision of the U.N.
9. Prolong the conferences to ban atomic tests because the U.S. has agreed to suspend tests as long as negotiations are in progress.
10. Allow all Soviet satellites individual representation in the U.N.
11. Promote the U.N. as the only hope for mankind. If its charter is rewritten, demand that it be set up as a one-world government with its own independent armed forces.
There are still American intellectuals, and elected members of Congress, who dream of an eventual one world government and who view the U.N., founded by communists such as Alger Hiss, the first secretary-general, as the instrument to bring this about.
World government was also the dream of Adolf Hitler and J.V. Stalin. World government was the dream of Osama bin Laden and the 9/11 hijackers.
12. Resist any attempt to outlaw the Communist Party.
13. Do away with loyalty oaths.
14. Continue giving Russia access to the U.S. Patent Office.
While the idea of banning any political party runs contrary to notions of American freedom and liberty, notions that are the exact opposite of those held by the left-wing communists themselves, nevertheless these goals sought to undermine the constitutional obligation of Congress to investigate subversion. The weakening of our government’s ability to conduct such investigations led to the attack of 9/11.
It is entirely proper and appropriate for our government to expect employees, paid by the American taxpayer, to take an oath of loyalty.
15. Capture one or both of the political parties in the U.S.
In his book “Reagan’s War,” Peter Schweizer demonstrates the astonishing degree to which communists and communist sympathizers have penetrated the Democratic Party. In his book, Schweizer writes about the presidential election of 1979.
16. Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American institutions, by claiming their activities violate civil rights.
This strategy goes back to the founding of the American Civil Liberties Union by Fabian Socialists Roger Baldwin and John Dewey and Communists William Z. Foster and Elizabeth Gurley Flynn among others.
17. Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for Socialism and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers associations. Put the party line in textbooks.
18. Gain control of all student newspapers.
19. Use student riots to foment public protests against programs or organizations that are under Communist attack.
The success of these goals, from a communist perspective, is obvious. Is there any doubt this is so?
20. Infiltrate the press. Get control of book review assignments, editorial writing, policy-making positions.
21. Gain control of key positions in radio, TV & motion pictures.
22. Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all form of artistic expression. An American Communist cell was told to “eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings,” substituting shapeless, awkward and meaningless forms.
23. Control art critics and directors of art museums. ” Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive, meaningless art.”
24.Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them “censorship” and a violation of free speech and free press.
25. Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio and TV.
26. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as “normal, natural and healthy.”
This is the Gramscian agenda of the “long march through the institutions” spelled out explicitly: gradual takeover of the “means of communication” and then using those vehicles to debauch the culture and weaken the will of the individual to resist.
Today those few who still have the courage to advocate public morality are denounced and viciously attacked. Most Americans are entirely unwitting regarding the motives behind this agenda.
27. Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with “social” religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity, which does not need a “religious crutch.”
This has been largely accomplished through the communist infiltration of the National Council of Churches, Conservative and Reform Judaism, and the Catholic seminaries.
28. Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the grounds that it violates the principle of “separation of church and state”
Replacing belief in the creator with belief in the earthly man-controlled State.
29. Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis.
And replace our nation of “laws, not men” with royal decree emanating from appointed judges and executive orders. Replace elected officials with bureaucrats.
30. Discredit the American founding fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the “common man.”
31. Belittle all forms of American culture and discourage the teaching of American history on the ground that it was only a minor part of “the big picture.” Give more emphasis to Russian history since the Communists took over.
Obliterating the American past, with its antecedents in principles of freedom, liberty and private ownership is a major goal of the communists then and now.
32. Support any socialist movement to give centralized control over any part of the culture – education, social agencies, welfare programs, mental health clinics, etc.
Public ownership of the means of production, the core principle of totalitarianism.
33. Eliminate all laws or procedures which interfere with the operation of the Communist apparatus.
34. Eliminate the House Committee on Un-American Activities.
35. Discredit and eventually dismantle the FBI.
36. Infiltrate and gain control of more unions.
37. Infiltrate and gain control of big business.
Turn America into a socialist police state.
38. Transfer some of the powers of arrest from the police to social agencies. Treat all behavioral problems as psychiatric disorders which no one but psychiatrists can understand or treat.
The Soviets used to send “social misfits” and those deemed politically incorrect to massive mental institutions called gulags. The Red Chinese call them
39. Dominate the psychiatric profession and use mental health laws as a means of gaining coercive control over those who oppose communist goals.
Psychiatry remains a bulwark of the communist agenda of fostering self-criticism and docility.
40. Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and easy divorce.
Done! The sovereign family is the single most powerful obstacle to authoritarian control.
41. Emphasize the need to raise children away from the negative influence of parents. Attribute prejudices, mental blocks and retarding of children to suppressive influence of parents.
Outcome-based education, values clarification or whatever they’re calling it this year.
42. Create the impression that violence and insurrection are legitimate aspects of the American tradition; that students and special interest groups should rise up and make a “united force” to solve economic, political or social problems.
This describes the dialectical fostering of group consciousness and conflict, which furthers the interests of authoritarianism.
43. Overthrow all colonial governments before native populations are ready for self-government.
The results of this successful campaign are increasingly obvious in the world today.
44. Internationalize the Panama Canal.
45. Repeal the Connally Reservation so the U.S. cannot prevent the World Court from seizing jurisdiction over domestic problems. Give the World Court jurisdiction over domestic problems. Give the World Court jurisdiction over nations and individuals alike.
This would mark a complete subversion of our Constitution and an end to representative sovereign government as we know it, which is the whole idea.
I’ve seen this somewhere before……
#1 agenda from the elite, get the GUNS! Always. Don’t care how, don’t care who they kill, but get those guns! GOA been fighting the good fight for a long, long time. If you have a buck to spare they deserve it.
He couldn’t face the fact that banks are in the business to make money.
He was taught that students loans are free and should apply to car and home loans.
Seems we have a leftist problem, not a gun problem
Good. So the DOJ & DC courts should have no other excuses for not proceeding with ‘fast and speedy’ with the J6 defendants.
Growing up in the 50s and 60s my parents never told my four sisters and me that we were “special.” They loved us and taught us that the world did NOT revolve around us.
By doing that we did not suffer massive “ME!!!” meltdowns, or selfish esteem problems.
Loved watching as a niece did the same thing with her two boys, telling them from the start that they weren’t “special,” and seeing then grow into young men who don’t live to fulfill their selfish image.
A feminist explains the madness. I call it the Monster she helped create. It helps if you understand their end game and the genesis. Wicked.
Are the trannys that her Cabal of Elite NWO Billionaires/Corps/Govts is creating now,… are they our Mutants of the Monster?
What a perverted future they envision while usurping God’s Nature?
All of the photos of this kid playing show him wearing protractive headgear.
This is because he suffered numerous head injuries/concussions during his playing career.
Again, we also do not know his medical records for any drugs treating the after effects of the head injuries.
We don’t know if he was using pain killer for migraines etc.
We don’t know his use of antidepressants, antipsychotics, muscle relaxers, anti-anxiety.
We probably never will know.
Has there ever been a mass shooter who was a card carrying NRA member or a bonafide Trump supporter? I don’t think so but millions of brain dead morons sill blame it on both, even though every shred of evidence points to the vast majority of these mass shooters being deranged leftists.
The Z Generation is personified in this loony character. When you raise kids to be uneducated and thoroughly brainwashed babies who can’t do anything to support themselves, this is what you can get when they have reality staring them in the face. The fault is not with these overage children. Most were raised by their labor union controlled schools instead of their parents.
We cannot allow this day care approach to education to continue. Kids spend all day at brainwashing day care centers and, following that, they are isolated all evening with their noses in their cell phones trying learn to have a social life. How many mentally ill young people will it take for our society to make the connection to what has been happening to them?
Abolishing unconstitutional labor unions for people on the taxpayer’s payrolls could be a significant start. Follow that with keeping cell phones out of classrooms and you might have a start at reforming our Government schools. No labor unions could eventually limit the political control of school boards.
It’s the parents fault for raising the messed up kids. Don’t like the crappy lefty schools. Take them out of it.
“the Police are trying to determine what triggered his attack”? obviously, the about to be fired, his “use of pronouns” and his instability triggered the attack.
My advice, stay far away from rabid wokesters, people transitioning, and those who use abnormal pronouns. Powderkegs!
His flaw was being white.
his making up for it was trying to be woke.
the outcome was full meltdown
‘so I have more experience than most in operating alone.”
Typical narcistic behavior.
Plenty of introverts in the world and we don’t go around shooting up the workplace when things went south for us.
“Battled with depression”
SSRI’x probably involved.
Losers turning shooters
It’s not just that they are feeding the delusion of misguided teens and creating the delusion for small children, it’s their pride and smugness over creating a new kind of woman, a better woman, a stronger woman, and then taking that to sports to crush real women; all with the compliance and acceptance of actual real women, the ones who are supposed to champion feminine causes. It would be hilarious, but it has actually revealed the real purpose; it’s to replace our God, to show that they can act like him and even create a better gender to supplant and overshadow His daughters. It’s blasphemy, and it’s evil. And I have no doubt that the end for it all is coming soon.
American Education System is much to blame for kids depression today. Hearing the constant your country is evil, you’re a victim or an oppressor indoctrination speal constantly as opposed to Education. No wonder the country’s schools are failing at teaching the 3 Rs & ability of students to read at grade level are so low nationally & depression & low self-esteem of kids is so widespread. The Democrat Party is successfully destroying America & Republican Establishmentarians are only paying attention to what they can get, rather than the destruction going on around them. In addition, most Republican Leaders lack a spine to stand up to the Communists now embedded throughout the Congress & Bureaucracy.
