Blowback on US soil has begun

I'm not sure how much longer I'll stay sane.

Ryan Grim reports that the Michigan synagogue suspect's family members were recently murdered by Israeli attacks on Lebanon.
This is gut wrenching all around.

What I just learned in my Leftist Jews group is that the synagogue raised funds for friends of the IDF, so it seems this was a carefully chosen target. I never thought I would have to think about being grateful I went to synagogue as a kid and we didn’t need armed security back then.

This madness needs to stop.

This went full circle, and things will only get worse. Imagine if he'd been successful in killing like 100 people. Then what?

Murdering innocents helps no one
