The Millers were some seriously disturbed individuals (LV shootings).

I'm posting the link to a link to a story about them that just popped up on my FB news feed. Intersting to note that these two were Ron Paul supporters.

I'm not going to post more than the link here. You can go and read the story, if you are interested. The viciousness of the mindset takes your breath away. You know that there are people like this in the world, and if you are lucky, you never meet them up close. It does pay to look in to the maw of the beast just as a reminder sometimes of what we are pitted against.

Jerad Miller sketched out his interests with the groups and individuals he “liked” on Facebook, including Operation American Spring, Alliance Defending Freedom, the National Rifle Association, The Heritage Foundation, Rand Paul 2016, Three Percenter Nation, and Ron Paul.

I see people writing all the time that "the world has gone to hell" No, the media has gone to hell. They're perpetuating and curating this type of insane response, and making billions doing it.

Why do people believe conspiracy theories spouted by Fox News?

Fox News is owned by "News Corporation".

The clue's right there in the name.

It's a multibillion dollar corporation. It's not some ragtag rebel outfit. It's a corporation. It has a commercial and political agenda.

Can we call it incitement yet??

From your link:

"A man who gunned down two police officers and a woman Sunday in Las Vegas left behind social media postings that show his concerns over Benghazi, chemtrails, gun control laws, and the government’s treatment of rancher Cliven Bundy."

...

"He shared a viral image suggesting the U.S. trade five Democratic lawmakers for a U.S. Marine who has been held for two months on weapons charges in Mexico after crossing the border with legally purchased firearms – a suggestion jokingly made last week by Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY)."

...

Jerad Miller also shared a post by David Lory VanDerBeek, the Independent American Party candidate for Nevada governor, that suggested last month’s fatal shooting spree near the University of California, Santa Barbara, was a “false flag” operation enacted by the government to suppress gun rights.

“I see Obama’s Socialist agenda of anti-2nd Amendment, pro-amnesty, Agenda 21 de-industrialization is in trouble,” VanDerBeek posted. “They need to grease the wheels of fear and politicizing a shooting in CA is not going to do it. People become numbed to the politics of shootings.”

That shooting spree, which left seven people dead and another seven wounded, prompted Jerad Miller to share a viral image that described that gunman as a liberal.

“So yet another liberal left-wing wack job goes on yet another fatal mass shooting spree because he couldn’t get laid and that’s the NRA’s fault???” the caption reads. “Jeez, it’s no wonder liberalism’s regarded as a mental disorder.”

So they went out and shot people to prove their point? Fucking loser loons. Too bad they didn't just off themselves in a self pity party.
