MI Mormon Church Shooter Flew Two Big American Flags From His Truck

Again, there's no reason to rush to judgment here.

But this looks more like the truck of a righty than of a lefty.

Again, there are a lot of other possibilities.

   As others have noted, it's weird when things like this happen, and you find yourself holding your mental breath, hoping that it's "the other guys."

   There's a lot of chatter among conservatives now to the effect that it's the left that's violent, not the right. That's not true--but the left is pretty obviously more violent. It's no accident that as the left radicalized over the last decade it has become more accepting of terrorism and other political violence. That's a litmus test--or possibly even a criterion of--radicalization. And ideas matter. Convince a faction of the kinds of things the left has convinced itself of over the last decade, and more violence from that faction is a natural (almost an inevitable) result. Much of the left has tolerated or embraced Pantyfa, excused or supported rioting...and now much of it has shrugged at or excused or celebrated several assassination attempts--including one successful one.

   But conservatives are deluding themselves if they think there's no violent fringe on the right.

   I'm not saying that to dull the effect of all the leftist violence we've seen. I'm just gesturing at a relevant fact.

   I'm actually pretty surprised there hasn't been any notable retaliatory violence from the firearm-obsessed right.

   Anyway.
