  1. NBC is whack. Why not call out the suspect by name and post his photo. His name is Travis Ikeguchi [池口 (いけぐち)トラビス], a haafu (ハーフ). They don’t post because he is Japanese (i.e. Asian) and the Stop Asian Hate campaign is strong. But if the culprit was black, their name and unflattering photo of them would be plastered everywhere.

  2. Correction her death did not effect the community across the country you are mistaken Mr. Sheriff

  3. One less piece of crap on the street. Saving paperwork and by extension trees

  4. Guess we'll never know the truth about the shooting since the perp is dead. And why aren't they showing any photos of the perp? Not white enough to further the narrative? This whole story reeks.

  5. Disgusting, condolences to her family
    ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

  6. Finally. Some good news

  7. Imagine being born in that country… yikes
    nasty ppl, nasty "culture", overall a really nasty place

  8. The pride flag didn't make anyone shoot anyone, stupid people?

  9. America is a Modern day Babylon and Sodom and Gamora and Egypt .her sins have reached a piont where there is no turning back from God wrath .

  10. Hate crimes is the most senseless act, you want to hurt someone not for personal reasons but because they look/think differently than you? Crazy.

  11. Is the gun ok? Poor Gun.😢 The Gun was the innocent victim here 😢

  12. Sometimes you just gotta die for what you stand for.

  13. When someone attempts murder over a political difference, they are a narcissistic sociopath and need to be kept off the streets before they hurt more people. They are mad for power and feeling superior to others, and this is the result when there is no oversight of these people.
    This is domestic terrorism along with a hate crime, it's past time there is a more robust task force in this country to handle these violent white nationalists

  14. Hillis billis doesn't even know what is meant diversity i would recomend to travel more to biggers city's. .Hollywood ca. For instance 😏

  15. Will the US ever be great again when innocent people just die senselessly hourly everyday…over hate. Will Americans truly know what true freedom feels like?

    May she rest in peace and all victims.

    Just an example of how the hate in the US leaks to other countries. By the way, he's free. https://youtu.be/NA_z19sXLsk

  16. This is a hate crime by haters. Just so nauseating and deplorable. The charges and sentencing must be elevated. What is a life worth these days? Northern Canadian Comfort. Peace to the World.

  17. I can agree with that statement " hate is senseless. "

  18. It's only going to get worse. Right wingers have devolved to wild animals now, and will need to be put down with alarming frequency. You can't rely on the cops. You have to arm yourself NOW.

  19. Benito Juárez said: "El respeto al derecho ajeno es la paz" And that is something many Americans do not understand, it basically means: Minding your own business will bring peace.

  20. getting upset about this flag but crickets for the swas…when ww2 and unspoken horrors caused by them during that time.

  21. Isn't that something. That you can take someone's life because of a flag… wow….. people have zero regard for life

  22. Terrorists. White. Christian. This is AmeriKKKa

  23. Oh yes. Drag Queens are the Real danger 🙄.

  24. This must end and end now. This isn’t the United States of America that our forefathers fought for. Love, inclusion, compassion and mutual respect are core and central to the very fabric that binds us together as Americans. We need to get back to that as our forefathers intended.

  25. Now straight people are dying in the hands of hate

  26. July 28, 2008 a coward walked in to a Universalist church, killed 2 and injured 7 because of a rainbow yard sign. Let's not forget that this is not new. It will continue until we can stop hate.

  27. HOLY GEORGE FLOYD…….. FAKE MOTIVE…… THEY NEED THIS STORY….. SOON COVID RESTRICTIONS…….THEN BACK TO "PEACE PROTESTS".

  28. We need more men like that suspect

  29. In California , No Way this is the reason for a shooting, False Flag All the Way ☕️

  30. The States are in a death spiral. Please save Ukraine first…then spital out.

  31. It is okay to disagree with people or have different views. When pathetic people want to find a reason to do something like this they will any dumb reason.

  32. It's a shame she was only trying to help the mentally ill 🙏

  33. Imagine being so angry that two men love each other and sleep in the same bed, that you have to go murder People because of it.

  34. so sad seem like a really great woman people like Ron desantis should never run for president.

  35. Why would a store display a Pride flag? Does EVERYTHING have to push an activist narrative? Can't I just go shopping without a lecture about perverted sexuality pushed in my face?

  36. That same community spews anti Christian hate and in March, one of theirs shoots several Christian children at their school. I find it hard to feel anything but contempt for unprincipled weirdos
