Am I missing something here? I just read that the whole white nationalist was a fabrication. That's weird, because what are we talking about here, another made up story? Strange.
Are you trying to tell me this is okay because some other people may act similar? Are you a child? Can you not see the problem with this logic. You pick out the worst things a member of a group you don't like does and think it makes it okay for you to act the same. That is complete nonsense.

This topic (at least me) was never saying that said groups were behind the shooting, only that he allegedly associated with it based on what the leader of the group said. which we now know was exaggerated to bring attention to this group, which is a real group with white-nationalist/white-identitarian ideology, regardless if they are 1 or 100 members
it seems as if people don't want to "politicise" things if they don't fit their narrative and stance/belief, look at all the fake Antifa stories that have appeared that people have regurgitated like blind sheep, if this was a Black, Mexican, Arab person who was responsible, can you imagine the "politicising" that would happen, from calls of deportations to lynchings etc.
knives are much more easier to conceal and don't make a noise he could have went around like a ninja and no one would have a clue of the body count in the bath rooms...good question

Then why are guns the weapon of choice in the vast majority of these incidents? Why aren't knives the more popular weapon of choice?

You ignored the fact that he is hispanic... No, all hispanics are not like this murderer. I am hispanic... The idiotic LEFTWING lawyers that this murderer has are trying to use the "he is autistic, and the death of his mother has affected him greatly" as they try to stop the death penalty of this murderer...
BTW, the NAZIS and other LEFTWING dictatorships would be proud of you calling for gun control... They all did the same things you are calling for...
In a private Instagram group chat, confessed school shooter Nikolas Cruz repeatedly espoused racist, homophobic and anti-Semitic views and displayed an obsession with violence and guns.
The hatred he and others in the group espoused met little resistance from its active members.
In one part of the group chat, Cruz wrote that he hated, "jews, ni**ers, immigrants."
He talked about killing Mexicans, keeping black people in chains and cutting their necks.
The statements were not made in jest.
There are hundreds of racist messages, racist memes and racist Instagram videos posted in the group.

Fake news. AP forgot how to be journalist. No one cares to check their sources anymore, especially if it's anti-trump. Close this thread it's over

Well so much for all the reich-wing lies posted that this guy wasn't your typical skinhead klanazi wanna-be militia member.

why is everyone downplaying his connections to white nationalism? the jereb guy said that cruz had participated in drills with the group, and now he is walking back his involvement. why is everyone being so defensive that the kid was some kind of racist? is it because he also happened to be a trump supporting gun lover? that doesn't mean every trump supporter is a racist gun lover but this guy sure was why are people trying so hard to deny it.
put your identity politics aside and call a spade a spade just like you do when you get mad at muslims for not denouncing terrorism every time some muslim commits a terrorist act.
