A story that is at LEAST similar in importance (8 Jews being slaughtered in a Pittsburgh attack) is quite a bit lower down, let's just say. And it's very, very short. And it omits some rather important details that are being widely reported by most of the other reported (there were at least 8 killed, the shooter told cops that "all Jews must die", etc.)
To the NY Times, this shooter is a real jerk. Because he threatens to steal the "righteous thunder" over the FLorida clown.

All-Trump hatred, all the time.
All-hatred of conservatives, all the time.
Ayuh

They don't sound too "NEUTRAL" to me! It is amazing how many people want a political solution for crazy!

I just hope the body count does not climb. Does anybody know if the shooter made it inside the synagogue? The news talked about people barricaded but we do not have the details.

CNN has been nothing but coverage of the shooting since the police department first sent out a tweet about it this morning.

It’s amazing how the Democrat still have such support from the Jewish voters, especially in N.Y. The Jews are way down on their list of groups that deserve their attention. Guess old habits die hard.
Not only are a great percentage of Jewish American Democrats, but a significant number of Democratic legislators and civic leaders are Jewish.

Liberals are liberal to begin with because they can empathize with others. They can see (not perfectly well, but in many ways) how others struggle and could use help. Liberals want to see lives improve, and are more open to change for that reason.

This is why liberals advocate social programs, to help people. Social Security, minimum wage laws and universal health care are liberal reforms to help people.

Democrats do not by and large hate other religious groups. Not Muslims, not Buddhists and not Jews. The Democrats are more inclusive and do not use hatred of religion, nor the lack of it, to gin up voters.

The perpetrator of this crime did not learn to hate Jewish people from liberal sources, that is a lead pipe cinch.

That's the opposite of "addressing the problem". It's ignoring the problem while fooling themselves that they are somehow doing something useful.

I don't associate hate crimes with liberals in general or Democrats in particular. It doesn't fit.
The attempted murder of Republican congressmen last year by a Democrat belies your assertion. Also the Family Research Council shooting which left one dead, by a Floyd Corkins, who used a "hate map" published by the Southern Poverty Law Center to pick and locate his targets.

Confirmed: shooter is a right-wing Trump supporter.

He posted to his social media hours ago, blaming Jews for the Hispanic caravan traveling to the US border.

Trump's #1 issue as POTUS this week was the caravan.

You think its MAYBE possible that is because one took place over the course of the last week and one just happened? Could it be?

I think you might have the wrong guy? This guy's name is BowerS, and he's been identified in the media as Bower.

Also, he looks older than 46 and doesn't have a beard.
