Thankfully.

There's only one Mauricio Garcia shooter. Good read below with all the evidence:

 

Tracing the Odnoklassniki Profile of the Texas Mall Shooter

Outside of contextual clues – such as a farewell post right before the 6 May shooting – the account also contains numerous photographs of identification documents.

On 5 April 2023, an image of a speeding ticket with Garcia’s name and date of birth visible was posted to the OK account.

Thanks. Good to get clarification on his identity after all the misleading reports. For a while there it seemed like there were two of them. Thankfully, it wasn't the 'same person with 2 identities'.

By the look of him, he clearly crossed over on the dark side. Very sad.

That said, I do recall the vitriol poured upon Nancy Pelosi by right wingers when she went to Taiwan.

The same left wingers criticizing Truss for speaking out against China were fully supportive of Pelosi in that instance. Weird huh?

It's almost like they have double standards or something...

That’s why the criminal Justice system uses investigative processes and why courts see evidence and sworn testimony.

As you yourself demonstrate, it’s too easy to confuse people with news and social media reports.

 

Evidence and sworn testimony is the way to go.

Absolutely. 

Which is why I am somewhat skeptical of reports that this Mexican chap was a far right, neo nazi, white supremacist with 2 faces and interchangeable tattoos.

Let's wait for the evidence.

It's certainly confusing. So far, it seems he was a white supremacist (of Mexican descent!!) who appears as 2 completely different men with different tattoos in media photos.

There certainly seems to be some issues with accuracy of reporting.

A couple of months ago I was riding along the beachfront in Kata on my little 110 cc wave and a big bike blasted past me Deff European. He only had a pair of shorts n flip flops on. I thought you won't last long.

How long did he last?

Always liked Dreyfuss. Top man.

Stakeout was a great movie. 

I'm all for Equality of opportunity. Equality of outcome however is a deeply flawed concept. Sowell (legend) was 100% correct.

One of my dogs has taken Cobra spit to the eye a few times. He can't open his eyes for around 3 days after it happens and then he's back to normal. 

I let the dogs take care of them but on the rare occasions I've had to help out (like when it won't come out of a tight space) I wear glasses and use a 4 metre long piece of bamboo.

Fortunately it's mainly rat snakes and keelbacks on our farm.

Last week’s vote is the subject of discussion.

Much as you'd like to dismiss my salient point from the discussion, I'm afraid it's very much relevant.

You see, last week's vote is part of the subject of discussion.

The other part is "Labour vows best is yet to come". On this part, I would beg to differ. I'd say they've peaked and when it comes to who leads the country, people will forget last week's little protest vote and once again vote for the Conservatives and not the party with a long history of anti-semitism and destroying the economy.

An inane trope.

Obviously the electorate didn’t pay a lot of attention to Dianne Abbot when they went to the ballot box last week.

 

 

Last week's vote didn't determine who would run the country.

Nobody voted for the trade barriers the Tories decided to erect between the UK and its largest trading partner. 

They voted to leave the European Union. 

Labour have a long way to go before they can defeat the Conservatives in a General Election. Not least of all the rampant anti-semitism that has been plaguing the party for many years and raised it's ugly head again recently.

There is no doubt that the conservatives have been weak on issues like immigration, but why would anyone vote for a party that is even weaker?

After her order of preference would likely be Edward, George then Harry.

Harry??? ???? With Markle as Queen? ????

Surely you jest. If anything could ever bring down the Monarchy, having a (self confessed/documented) drug taking, Nazi dressing, racist bully like Harry as King would probably achieve it. 

He's lucky to still have his titles. Hopefully, now that the coronation is complete he will be stripped of them pronto.

There is a lot of vote buying going on, not really democratic.

But more democratic than guns and tanks, no?

Don't let perfection stand in the way of progress.

Oh those other protestors who were nowhere near the coronation.

 

So the police now get to arrest people for protesting where their protest might be seen.

 

Oh, and so you now accept that the support of the British people is clearly not unanimous,

Location is irrelevant. If the police had reason to believe they were going to glue their face to one of the horses or the carriage then it would be reasonable to arrest them before they arrived at the location. If the police had reason to suspect they had a bomb should they refuse to arrest them because they are 'nowhere near' the coronation? 

Where did I say support is unanimous? Oh that's right, I didn't, it was all in your imagination. ???? 

Of course there are always going to be the pink haired, rainbow sock wearing attention seekers screaming obscenities but thankfully it did not detract from a wonderful occasion.

Long Live the King.

Seems they allowed protests that were not causing a nuisance.
