Robert Bowers, walked into the synagogue building and yelled, “All Jews must die.” By the time he was done, eleven people were dead. Six other people were wounded, including four police officers. Hate Jews and police officers? Now, I know he is a Democrat.
He may have decided to shoot up a synagogue after Democrats nominated so many candidates who are hostile to Jews and Israel, including their darling, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. There are at least five women running for the House that are extremely anti-Semitic and they have all campaigned with Linda Sarsour, a noted hater of all things Israel.
Police are also investigating if Bowers announced his intentions on social media this morning. That account has since been taken down.
One posting stated, “HIAS [Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society] likes to bring invaders in that kill out people. I can’t sit by and watch my people get slaughtered. Screw your optics, I’m going in.”
Hissrich said this shooting is being investigated as a hate crime and as such, the FBI is leading the investigation.
“At this time this is being considered a federal violation and the primary investigative agency will be the Federal Bureau of investigation,” Hissrich said.
“As the mayor mentioned, we’ve had a tragedy here today. The work of the first responders is what probably prevented it from becoming much more of a tragedy for what it is,” Hissrich said.
I will bet you money and give you odds that the news media will not blame anti-Israeli speech by Democrats and college students for the shooting. Somehow, they will find a way to blame Trump.
“I will emphasize at this time that there appears to be no active threat to the community. We believe the subject that is responsible for this has been taken into custody,” Pittsburgh Public Safety Director Wendell Hissrich said.
