Charlie Kirk assassin was living with trans roommate

I feel a bit sorry for Robinson's partner tbh.

I think there will be a few people who knew vaguely of Tyler's plans, but didn't know they knew because they just wrote it off as bullshitting. But the casual 'remember when i was carving bullets' is just fucking weird.

Whether there were any that 'knew' knew is for the FBI to figure out.

The last I heard about that guy is that he was offering to explain his actions if someone in the media paid him for his story!

The handwritten note was allegedly destroyed but the cops have photographic evidence of it existing! (which explains why I was at first confused as to whether the note was a paper object or on a phone)

Whether the photo was taken by Tyler or Lance they did not say but these are definitely not the actions of criminal masterminds - why document a thing that you are about to destroy (or request someone destroys on your behalf?)

His mother was the one who recognised him first by all accounts.

I'm guessing she probably knew he was capable unfortunately. Her and his dad didn't pause and think "Naaaaaa its not him". They KNEW straight away and didn't seem to have doubt.

I feel for them on so many levels.

But honestly, this is not a responsible adult level of thinking either. Not of a 22 year old.

Fucking fuckwit about covers it.

If I were his mother I would be so heartbroken to read that.

You would so clearly see your child.

tbf, if someone with this apparent level of mental said to you "i'm gonna kill x on Tuesday if I can", I think most people would go "oh alright mate, if you say so!"

I don't know how they'd actually manage to stick anything on anyone else tbh, unless they'd helped in a material way.

I thought the text messages with his furry friend were quite telling. He was dithering on about the gun and how to retrieve it, as if for all the world he thought he would get away with this.

The furry one must have been texting with one hand whilst he shoved every stick of furniture in the house against the front door.

People here were right that the memes on the bullets were just bleak nihilism and wanting to do something edgelordy, by the sound of it.

"Remember how I was casually engraving bullets in front of you the other day" is, uh, interesting

I think in some ways also interesting even just on its own, like - some people sit and watch a Netflix show together in the living room, we engrave bullets... wait, what?!

And what about that beardy nutter down the front shouting USA USA and doing first pumps immediately after the shooting, when everyone in the vicinity had hit the deck?

I think its fair to say, Tyler wasn't 'The One' for him, no.

I don't even think psycho-adjacent cuts it.

It just reads like an immature prat who liked computer games, and couldn't tell the difference between reality and fantasy thought he'd take an opportunity and thought he'd be able to get away with it but was still scared of his Dad being cross (not the FBI and a possible death sentence!)

He's a fucking child mentally.

Thats not the thought processing of an adult!

Awks!

Yes I was just about to post that the “crazy old dude” apparently deliberately obstructed justice so Charlie Kirk’s murderer could get away.

The FBI will be running down any connections that might point to a conspiracy. If those texts are any indication, it's fairly likely that Robinson blabbed or at least hinted about his plans. At that point all his friends will want to be able to say that they just thought he was bullshitting.

They’re ideologues.

That Zinn dude is a nutter, he has a criminal record for making false bomb threats.

No evidence that he’s in anyway connected to TR or the extended Polycule tho.

Paedo Accidentally caught:

From the BBC
We now have more information from officials about one of the suspects initially arrested - George Zinn.

Zinn was at the event where Kirk was shot and killed. As people fled, he was allegedly seen shouting that he had shot Kirk, according to Utah authorities.

He was arrested but later said he had falsely taken responsibility to sabotage police efforts to catch the gunman.

Officials say the distraction may have helped Robinson evade detection for longer, so Zinn has been charged with obstruction of justice.

Officials say they do not believe Zinn worked with Robinson.

He is also facing further charges for possession of child sex abuse material, after officials found over 20 images of children on his phone.

Alot of people don't want to go.

Doesn't look like it. The furry was merely psycho-adjacent and has, literally, dodged a bullet.

So is there actually any evidence whatsoever yet that any trans person was involved in CKs murder?

I can't get over the bit where he says:

"If am able to grab my rifle unseen, I will have left no evidence. Going to attempt to retrieve it again, hopefully they will have moved on"

MATTEEEEE you just murdered one of the most high profile and influential men in the country. They weren't going to 'just move on!'

and

"I'm worried about what my old man would do if I didn't bring back grandpa's rifle... idek if it had a serial number, but it wouldn't trace to me. I worry about prints I had to leave it in a bush where I changed outfits. didn't have the ability to bring it with... I might have to abandon it and hope they don't find prints. how the fuck will I explain losing it to my old man"

MATTTTEEEEE you just comitted aggravated murder. Its not losing your grandpas gun and your Dad being cross about it, that you have to worry about.

The suspension of reality and just sheer naivety of this LEAPS out at you.

This is a 22 year old man - who was on a scholarship (after previously going on a more academic course and dropping out) who appears to be thinking with the level of a rather dumb 10 year old.

I’m in an international chat group with several thousand non-affirming or cautiously-trying-to-avoid-affirming parents of trans identifying teens/young adults and this is such a familiar sounding scenario, the only shocking part is the point where the radicalised adult child takes up arms and assassinates a political media commentator.

There are hundreds, if not thousands of Conservative Christian families with estranged* or almost-estranged QT offspring, many of whom are still financially supporting them in someway, whether that be completely bankrolling them or paying tuition or paying rent or car payments or even just phone costs. In some ways it’s good that this crime is rumoured to be by groypers because at least that way those estranged kids aren’t inspired to copycat crime.

*not usually the parents choice (although sometimes it’s a desperate ‘end of our patience, need to protect other children in the family’ decision) and there are plenty of liberal/affirming parents who have also been subjected to ‘no contact but financial’ estrangement too.

When the 'Utah Ex-Mormon Transgender Furry Terrorist Polycule' is the least crazy person in the room. 🙄

I don't know why the press keep referring to the suspect's partner as his 'roommate' but I hope for this person's sake he/they manage to stay safe. They appear to be an innocent party who had no idea what sniper boy was going to do.
