Anybody else tired of the baby boomers still being in charge? This is the world they are leaving us. Constant refusal to do anything to leave the nation in better shape after they die. Won’t do anything to make it better. That’s why there hasn’t been a ban of assault rifles or more legislation to fix this.

To the xers, fellow millennials, gen z they are leaving us a big turd that needs somehow polished.

Please vote for younger people that believe in democracy.

Assault rifles were banned long ago. Enforce the gun laws that are in place and quit dumping the killers back onto the streets.

You keep blaming others for your shortcomings when you’re the one leaving yourself behind.

Edit: This seems to be him. Surprising they haven't taken down his profile yet.
Looks like a lot of leftists follow him a lot. I actually know people that know him. All leftists in a big way. Interesting.

I think it is important to realize who the real victim is. He seems to be a wonderful productive person that one heck of a lot of people will miss. This isn't some gangbanger running away from police after a drive-by, this is a respected good person. His mural should be posted and the other pretenders taken down! We should honor good people not gun slingers.

Yerkey said she and Alex grew up in Bethel Park, but he and his girlfriend recently moved to Bloomfield.
That was his mistake.

Well, I wouldn't go that far. Bloomfield is a good area to cycle from in and around the city. He was wanting to do a good thing and clearly doing his best. Bethel Park isn't a good place to cycle around. I don't think we can say he made a mistake. He just was very unlucky to run into a crazy person who was ready to kill someone.

No, I am very tired of bigots like you. Do you have any idea what you sound like to an educated person like myself? Being prejudicial against an age group is EXACTLY the same as being racist or sexist. NO DIFFERENCE! GET IT? HELLO? Now read, lean and educate yourself. Get help from smart older people. I suggest older because they will know better than you on one heck of a lot of levels because they have LIFE experience.

I post this to help you and your bigotry. You are the same as a racist. Might as well go out and get a Swastika tattoo and be done with it. Get it? Yes, look in the mirror and realize who you really are. All are NOT welcome in your world. You are NOT a good person. YOU DON'T love thy neighbors. Hello?

Hope this helps. If not, you will be on your way to jail because you will be on the news because you murdered a bunch of people. Yep, that is how we all see you on here.

Again, the dude was apparently active in the local Punk community, so it's not surprising that he knew a lot of leftists. I don't really see political content in his public posts though. There's a fair amount of red flags in retrospect (him calling his soundcloud Psycho Luke for example), but this all just looked like normal edgy punk stuff.

This does seem totally, 100% random. Like the dude had a bad day and decided to shoot the guy on a whim. Could have been any of us really, which is what makes it so frightening.

The boomers are in charge and run the government. The boomers run the businesses. Even woke Disney has a boomer CEO over 70. They have 54 percent of the wealth in this country. The boomers are now the number 1 homebuyers in this country surpassing the millennials. This is happening on their watch. Instead of doing the right thing and providing better mental healthcare and halting further manufacturing of guns and ammo all they can offer is thoughts and prayers.

Thank a boomer for creating and leaving this mess. They are the generation of sociopaths.

Lol. I learned plenty from Boomers and they certainly weren’t in my way to being successful.

Proof to being sociopaths?
