A man named Vance Boelter allegedly shot and killed Melissa Hortman, a Democratic Minnesota state representative, and her husband Mark Hortman at their home at some point early Saturday morning while, according to law enforcement, impersonating a police officer. He also allegedly shot state senator John Hoffman and his wife Yvette Hoffman at their home. They are alive, but remain in critical condition.
Law enforcement has said they found a manifesto and hit list in the alleged suspect’s car, which included politicians, abortion providers, and pro-abortion rights advocates. There were also allegedly fliers in his car for the “No Kings” protest against President Donald Trump, which took place in cities across the US on Saturday.
The 57-year-old, who has been identified as the suspected shooter according to numerous reports, runs an armed security service with his wife, and has been affiliated with at least one evangelical organization, a ministry he has also run with his wife, according to a tax filing reviewed by WIRED. (His wife could not be immediately reached for comment.) According to public records and archived websites reviewed by WIRED, the suspect served for a time as the president of Revoformation Ministries. A version of the ministry’s website captured in 2011 carries a biography in which he is said to have been ordained in 1993.

I assume authorities are using even more resources to find this asshole than they did for Luigi, given 3 victims vs 1. Right???
We can stop saying “evangelical ministry” and just call them “terrorist groups” now. We don’t need to abide by their pleasantries.
Quick send the national guards to his hometown, the suburbs are rioting and out of control! /s

Pro-life, huh?
Where does the hate come from? Religion. This priest spread hate his entire life, then decided he’s going around murdering people due to his “higher morality” than the average population.
There are hundreds of priests that do the same everyday, spread hate in the name of their hate religion.
If you’re christian, this is what christianity actually looks like. Not the one that they’re trying to sell, the REAL christianity. The one that goes out into the communjity and murders those that they hate.
Not a gay trans Democrat?
i offer now as the time for anyone to make the argument that this was a leftist
The alleged shooter is a 57-year-old white male; according to his ministry’s website, he “sought out militant Islamists in order to share the gospel and tell them that violence wasn’t the answer.”
He went to persuade the militants and they persuaded him instead? “He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster. And when you gaze long into an abyss the abyss also gazes into you.”
Nietzsche is peachy!

I see a pattern 🧐
Why am I not surprised? Might as well check his home for kiddie stuff too. Checking all the boxes at this rate.
Which verse in the Bible does Jesus get all murdery against those that are not Nazis?
In the beginning. The entire first part of the bible, where the god floods the Earth for being too sinful. Then turns entire cities to salt for being LGBTQ.
That’s the part of christianity that the christians follow, you’re just reading a chapter and ignoring the rest. Then you go “WHA? Why all the hate?” Well, the hate was spelled out in the first 10 chapters.
You ignored it and pretended it doesn’t exist.
That’s on you, dummy.
Damnit, I didn’t think most of them read.
I’m surprised this wasn’t an ex-J6er. Still, I wonder if Trump will pardon him?
Can’t pardon someone from state charges.
I mean he’s like one cliche away from being on Epstein’s flight logs.
But I was told the woke liberals are the real danger that need to be actively and violently suppressed.
Something liberals need to start understanding is they are going to protests where in some liberal states are deemed illegal to carry weapons in. Literally the Democratic Party is making all of us less safe with their gun control bullshit. Democrats are helping fascist create and limit access which helps the fascists. It’s bullshit.
