Mormons have to realize maga evangelicals don’t see them as christians and they’re like #6 on MAGA’s murder lists of targets.
The FBI is leading the investigation and considered it an “act of targeted violence,” said Ruben Coleman, a special agent in charge for the bureau.
Thank goodness it wasn’t a terrorist attack!
The guy hat USA flags on his truck. How could he be a terrorist!?
So a Freedom Attack then
Maga on maga violence is trending in 2025.
Thoughts and, ehem, prayers
I really wonder if leftists really are this brainwashed to parrot such an obviously incorrect narrative. The answer is “yes, they are this brainwashed.”
What leftists are shooting right wingers you fucking moron open your goddamn eyes fuck
He has a Trump Vance sign on his fence. Right wing extremism is a real serious problem https://scallywagandvagabond.com/2025/09/thomas-tom-jacob-sanford-michigan-lds-church-shooter-decorated-war-veteran-trump-supporter/
I saw the twin full size American flags on the back of the truck and I instantly pegged him as a MAGA nutter.
It’s really not hard to spot this particular brand of mental illness.
Narcissistic rage
your comment is extra funny when maga folks listen to fox religiously, which is literally a propaganda outlet for trump.
The reports I read said the shooter had trump signs at his house. He’s maga for sure https://www.hindustantimes.com/world-news/us-news/thomas-jacob-sanford-trump-supporter-michigan-grand-blanc-church-shooters-political-affiliation-democrat-or-republican-101759091935370.html
Do you really think a MAGA’t wank stain is going to trust a paper with Hindu in the name?
Lol
He has a Trump/vance sign on his fence https://scallywagandvagabond.com/2025/09/thomas-tom-jacob-sanford-michigan-lds-church-shooter-decorated-war-veteran-trump-supporter/
No way, mass shooters are never on the far right!
The Hindustan Times probably isn’t a trustworthy source. Especially in this political climate, I’d recommend not believing anything you haven’t seen from multiple sources.
MSN reports he has Trump/pence shirt in photo and trump/vance sign
Fair. Also here is that MSN article.
Except literally the meme plays out every single time.
Thomas Jacob Sanford, 40, was identified as the shooter responsible for a mass shooting at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Grand Blanc Township, Michigan, on Sunday, September 28, 2025. Sanford drove his pickup truck into the church, exited the vehicle, and opened fire with an assault rifle on congregants during a service. He also deliberately set fire to the church building. The shooting resulted in the deaths of at least two people, with several others injured. Sanford was killed by law enforcement officers in a shootout at the scene.
Sanford was a US Marine Corps veteran who served in Iraq from 2004 to 2008 and lived in Burton, Michigan. His vehicle was reportedly decorated with two large American flags, and social media posts suggest a possible Trump support sign at his residence, though these affiliations have not been officially confirmed by authorities. The motive for the attack remains under investigation, with searches conducted at his home and examination of his cellphone records. There were also reports of improvised explosive devices found near the church. The incident shocked the community, especially as it occurred shortly after the death of Russell M. Nelson, the longtime president of the church [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10].

You probably shouldn’t trust the Hindustan Times, they are not a credible news source
Oh hell, I wonder if the guy that did this did it because the guy that helped Kirk achieve his objective was Mormon.
Here we go again. Monday Monday is going to be rough in my news circles
He white?
(Rubbing my eyes with one hand while hanging my head downward) Big sigh. Yeah, he white.
Damn it, Tylenol!
Admittedly did not read the article yet. This is my prediction:
Willing to put money on this being a conservative that is getting revenge on Mormons because of the Kirk killing being in Utah.
Honestly, I hope they all just take each other out
Tyler Robinson was raised Mormon so this might very well be the reason.
Hey, let’s maybe wait a bit before even reading anything this time. AP itself is quite trustworthy IMO, but the sources themselves often aren’t - AP reports what it finds out, but they get their data from police, FBI, etc - not a single link in the chain is infallible, which is why it’s best to wait till a bit more is known.
With the Kirk shooter, first he was trans, then he was a groyper, and then later on it turned out he has a trans girlfriend and he was sick of the hate Kirk was spewing. Hell, maybe even THAT isn’t the final version. The first one was super comfy for conservatives to believe, the second version was super comfy for the left to believe, and the final version… Honestly again, sounds a bit too convenient. So we’ll see.
So it’s the left fault!?!??
/s
In their mind? Yeah? Probably. 🙄
A GMC truck complete with two American flag poles on the back. Classic.
Classic leftist antifa. Better round up every trans person, just in case.
Dear trans Democratic partner. I hope this message finds you in good health. I have left the vehicle in a place unbeknownst to policemen. I will now briefly outline how I have acted under the sway of the radical Trans Antifa group.
Rump keeps pointing fingers at “radical extreme left antifé…” and every week another one of his followers does a mass murder.
As planned.
Whoops! Ha ha. I meant totally . . random chance!
You might even call it… stochastic.
Let me guess, he’s got The Internationale inscribed on every bullet.
Haters will say it’s fake:
If this guy has a Mauser the conspiracists heads will explode.
It’s a mix of The Internationale, The Communist Manifesto and for some unknown reason The Rocky Horror Picture Show’s script.
Its amazing, they got the whole damn thing on there!
Dmnitjnt
With sharpie
Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer said in a statement that her heart was breaking for the community. “Violence anywhere especially in a place of worship, is unacceptable,” she said.
Governor Gretchen Whitmer pointedly declined to use the word “genocide” on a Sunday morning news show to describe the war in Gaza and the massive Palestinian civilian death toll as Israel tries to eliminate Hamas. … Michigan has one of the nation’s largest Arab-American and Muslim-American populations.
“I’m watching this very closely and doing what I can to support all of these communities here in Michigan,” Whitmer said.
Huh.
So I guess it is acceptable, sometimes.
Western liberals have always been like this.
Western society is predicated on some people being more human than others (but, but my enlightenment values. ha)
Christian institutions tied themselves into knots to morally justify the horrors of the colonial era and Atlantic slave trade. The conclusion they reached is some people are just more peopley than others. These people being Christians.
Western attitudes towards human rights, egalitarianism etc are a direct extension of this era. Patting themselves on the back on being the chosen people and treating their own well while treating others like they’re the scum of the Earth.
Man, it’s crazy how not using the word genocide in April of 2024, not saying it wasn’t a genocide but simply not saying it was while also calling it terrible, is both clearly communicating that she supports killing Palestinians and also super timely and extremely relevant to an attack a year and a half later.
Thou shalt not kill*
