Friends say Minnesota shooting suspect was deeply religious and conservative
The man accused of assassinating the top Democrat in the Minnesota House held deeply religious and politically conservative views, telling a congregation in Africa two years ago that the U.S. was in a “bad place” where most churches didn’t oppose abortion.

Usual suspects
Oof, imagine being described as a "friend" of this tool.
Friends are honestly what stop people from doing things like this sooner.
What's that from? Star Trek or some other unholy work of witchcraft?
Gotta wonder what part of "thou shalt not kill" is so difficult to understand for these people.
The murder-to-save-babies community is entirely faith-based
Abortion is wrong but assassination is fine?
Yep!
Clearly you haven't read the bible.
Religious conservative nuts feel the same way about people who are in favour of abortion as many people in the US feel about health insurance CEOs.
From certain standpoints, assassinations appear acceptable.
because it’s not about being "pro-life", it’s about controlling women’s bodies
Of course! Because Jesus loves you!
And he needs money! He just can't handle it so he needs more.

I think the logic is “babies are innocent, these people have a choice and they made the wrong one.”
Duh.
Christian conservatives are scary people prone to violence. They are ticking timebombs and it's safest to avoid them as much as possible.
That's because Jesus famously said: go forth and kill the people you disagree with.
Seriously, I can't reconcile how those Christians can go to church every week and just completely ignore the teachings of the woke, antifascism, anticapitalism dude, you know... Christ himself.
Can somebody explain this to me? I genuinely can't wrap my head around it.
That's not a religion.. It's a cult
Jesus didn't want to be worshiped.
Every Christian goes against the teachings of Christ by default.
The most important thing for people, and by people I mean all of us at times, is in-group belonging. None of us are immune to that. We look to our peers for cues on how to behave and what to believe.
Some people consider like scientists and experts in-group, and trust them. Some don't.
This need for in-group cohesion is more important than facts and figures. It's more important than the text of some book.
So when all your friends and family are saying that Christianity means one thing, it's unlikely you're going to disagree.
Religion should be classified as a mental disorder. It’s delusional and often results in erratic, even dangerous, behavior.
Especially the most violent and dangerous religion of them all...
Trump presidential pardon incoming in 3, 2, 1...
Please stop spreading this. He will be charged by the state which would require the Minnesota Pardon Board to vote to pardon him. That's the Governor, the State AG and the Chief Justice of the state Supreme Court. 2/3 would be required to vote in favor of a pardon.
If a man says he values life, then he better value all life. Otherwise he's a liar
Christians have never had a problem with lying or murder. History shows this.
I'd say people in general.
Nazis lives don't matter, otherwise you're right
Alas, it's the right religion and the right skin color so at this time we're ruling out that this was anything but the misguided actions of a deeply unwell individual.
I can’t believe sleepy joe personally trained and planned this. The bumbling idiot super evil genius. And then the cops didn’t stop him at the house. Trump would have thrown a dirty diaper at the shooter and he would have exploded.
Don't forget Obama sold him the guns and Hillary cleaned them.
And all the ammo and weapons were brought here by undocumented immigrants.
There’s stereotypes for a reason
shocker right?
