Connect the source of the words to the source of the actions.
Did vets, Christians, Islam, Right Wing make those statements?


He has either claimed to be part of those groups or can be proven to be part of those groups.

He is a vet, potential Sovereign Citizen member, as well as a former Christian/member of the Nation of Islam.

By his actions...THIS guy seems affiliated.


Affiliated with whom?

BLM?

Islam?

Right Wing, Sovereign Citizens?

Christians?

Military vets?

He is either connected to or has claimed to have been connected to all of those groups.

Which fits your political narrative?


Does it matter?? What matters is he has bought into the idea of cops going out on the streets to kill black people. Thus message is not only untrue but dangerous as we can see.

Agreed. I have seen a few independent "press" at these events interview some members of the protesting crowd. When asked if they support the "pigs in a blanket..." and "...dead cops..." chants, every single one hesitated for about 10 seconds (and you could see them thinking if they wanted to answer that), then began to rant on about something, avoiding the question.

If these protesters disagreed, we would see them doing so....silence is acceptance IMO.

He is connected with said group/s from which his actions are related. From your list, only one of those groups is openly related with cop killings in the present, the radical branch of another surely is sympathetic to that cause also. Hence, his actions connect him with the movement that calls upon those said actions to be taken.

All you're doing here is damage control by disrupting the topic at hand and heading the conversation into a tangent to point away from the topic and its implications.

And not very well done I may add, maybe a little sleep is in order to regain that cognitive reasoning?

Yes, and ridding the world of them would have stopped the carnage in Nice, France as well.

Follow the narrative to its inevitable end I guess.

Funny how former klansman David Duke, who disavowed the klan decades ago, is not recognized as former by the far left but recently claiming to not be a muslim magically erases all ties to islamic radical theology forever according to these same leftist hypocrites.

And the "sovereign citizen" spin came from finding a membership card to a blacks only soverign group who culturally appropriate american indian tradition.





The Wa#aw Nation, or Wa#aw de Dugdahmoundyah, is a group of Black Americans that claim to be a sovereign Native American nation within the boundaries of the United States.[1] Their name is taken from that of the Ouachita tribe,[2] who are also eponymous of the Wa#a River and of Wa#a, Oklahoma. The group is part of the Sovereign citizen movement, a movement whose members generally believe that they are not subject to any statutes or proceedings at the federal, state, or municipal levels.[3][4]

Or neither. Sounds like a man who was lost in life and seeking answers. What's relevant was his mental state, not what religion he was once apart of.

Does anybody know if Gavin Long belonged to the Ready Reserves....specifically the IRR (Individual Ready Reserve)?


This guy was 'ex' Marine like McVeigh was 'ex' Army. People should focus less on BLM and more on that other extremist organization dedicated to violence--the USMC.

Amidst the urban unrest of July–August 1967, the FBI began "COINTELPRO–BLACK HATE", which focused on King and the SCLC as well as .... the Nation of Islam.

Videos on Long’s account show that he was a former Nation of Islam member. He also ranted against “crackers” and made references to Alton Sterling, the black man killed by police in Baton Rouge on July 5.

Were they talking about this Alton Sterling?


Here is the criminal history of the man who was shot by Louisiana police after an altercation escalated quickly. Police were called after Sterling had been threatening a homeless man with a firearm for asking him if he had any spare change. The homeless man had made the 911 call. After police arrived, Sterling had resisted arrest, and appeared to make a grab for his firearm at one point.

In the video footage of the shooting, you can hear the officer shout “He’s got a gun!” and “If you effing move, I swear to God.” One of the officers then says something unintelligible, and two shots are fired.

So who is Alton Sterling? For starters, liberals should know he possessed an illegal firearm. As a felon with a lengthy rap sheet, Sterling was legally prohibited from possessing a firearm. Police records show Sterling had been a member of the Bloods gang, and had a list of offenses including battery, assault, drugs and weapons charges, and owed $25,000 in child support.

He was also a registered pedophile, having impregnated a 14-year-old girl when he was 20. The media, by contrast, has portrayed him only as a “loving father of five.”

Here is a selection of his prior charges. You can also review his court documents here.

Here's an interesting commentary:

So I guess Alton Sterling was pretty much a waste of human flesh and an oxygen thief. I guess Shooter Long was just another ign'ant fool. He sounds ign'ant in his YouTube videos. Self-important and whatnot ... but still a nobody, who was destined to remain a nobody, unless he became notorious.

Don't blame the shooter though. Hillary Clinton says it takes a village to raise these, right? -chuckle

Yup. And you could see it coming ten miles away. I'm actually surprised they waited this long.

Well, you know...every good screenplay writer has at least a couple alternate endings to fall back on. Hell, they even let you see all three. But they choose which one is the official ending. This is no different. Just a bigger audience.

It's hard to find more ridiculous people than the members of the Nation of Islam. Their names really says it all and their thinly veiled inferiority complexes is laughable. They will quite seriously claim that the Celts and the Vikings were black. I don't know if there's a single successful civilisation that they haven't laid claim to..

Typical liberal madness.

One affiliation of which we can be absolutely certain, is that of Dallas mass police-killer Micah Johnson.



In another tweet, he praised Micah Johnson, the man who shot and killed five police officers in Dallas, saying “he was one of us!”
