“To the Feds, I’ll keep this short, because I do respect what you do for our country. To save you a lengthy investigation, I state plainly that I wasn’t working with anyone,” the document said, according to the official.

It also had a line that said, “I do apologize for any strife or traumas but it had to be done. Frankly, these parasites simply had it coming.”

For sure, I get those things. People are excited by that catharsis, especially since there's been few opportunities to feel a real W in recent years. That being said, I don't think it's productive for people here to be getting on each other's case about Based Shooter? Cringe shooter? Are you a liberal for dismissing propaganda of the deed? etc etc.

If we're not pretending that cops are always 100% trustworthy (to call back to btfod's comment) then this should also apply to the notion that Luigi is the shooter. If we're not sure that Luigi is the shooter, then we should probably exercise some restraint here.

Yea I don’t think it’s worth blowing out of proportion anymore than to the level I kinda gave it in my last comment. He’s a goober who fell ass backwards into something in and of itself is kinda based ig, may or may not even be the shooter, whatever lol

Tbh maybe I’m missing stuff but I’ve only seen a few people really getting up and arms about it and they’re relatively new accounts so take that for what it is.

the only things I'm sure of are not to trust the cops, and to be gracious with everyone else. restraint seems prudent, I agree.
