As a lefty I just drink and get depressed when the GOP continuously assaulted our freedoms and dares climate change to wipe us out. Maybe I should be picking up a flag?
Witnesses told police they saw a man, identified as Clinton Collins, “charge at the victim and stab him with the flagpole through his head,” the release said. “That’s what he gets,” Collins said, witnesses told police. “He deserved it.” Collins was taken into custody immediately, police said. It took longer to help the victim, whose injuries put firefighters in a delicate predicament, according to police. “The pole entered the victim’s head beneath his jaw and exited the other side of his head near his right temple area,” the release said. “The American Flag was still attached (to) the pole at the time.” Due to the size of the pole, firefighters had to cut part of it off for the victim to fit into an ambulance, police said.
Fucking hell… That poor guy.
That psychopath needs help.
Okay, I’ll say it. His name is very ironic, guessing he’s a republican. Maybe all his insecurities came from there?
Poor, poor victim. Nobody deserves that.
Found this other article on it and it mentions:
KOKI also identified a woman who told the station that she recognized Collins after seeing him exhibit similarly disturbing behavior about a week prior to the incident at the Sonic.
“We saw him start to charge at this person who was just sitting on the ground in front of the McDonald’s,” she told the station in an interview. “He charged at him with the flagpole and started doing like a stabbing motion with it.”
I suspect this guy is mentally ill.
$5 says I know how he votes.
$5 bucks says he doesn’t vote for a while.
But he can still run to be President amiright?! Lol
He didn’t lead an insurrection, so, sure.
Not sure it’ll go anywhere. We already have 2 florida men leading the pack.
Not at all? Dude probably doesn’t know what day it is.
Where do I send my cashapp deets?
Or maybe he writes in Ronald Reagan each election, muttering how if Carter gets into office, he’s going to let those Nazi commies take over the country and everyone will end up speaking Danish and forced to work in the sand mines so the European nudy beaches will stay nice, which he supports but is embarrassed about so he overcompensates.
That seems more likely than him voting for anyone actually on the ballot.
I miss Florida man. Oklahoma man is scary.
Pretty sure Florida man ate a guy’s whole face. This is just fresh, it’ll pass.
I had to click the link to be sure it was FL, there is also a Miami, Oklahoma.
Florida man is too busy campaigning.
These fuckers have lost their minds since Trump and his cronies got arrested. It’s disgusting how awful the right is behaving.
At least in this case, it looks like the man was already deeply mentally ill and his target selection could have random or illogical (like “that man has stolen my face”).
But that’s the dirty secret with the “fuckers” you’re talking about – most of them were already mentally ill (or heading there) and the far-right used that vulnerability to radicalise them.
It’s part of why the waters get muddy so quickly when someone covers themselves in swastikas and kills as many people as he can with his super-cool, legally-owned guns.
The left says “Another far-right, racist piece of shit murdering people” and the right screams “No! He was mentally ill. You must be if you murder someone. After all, I know plenty of far-right, racist pieces of shit and none of them have killed anybody”.
And while you definitely don’t need to be mentally ill to kill people (unless you want to claim everyone in the military is mentally ill and the military taught them how), a lot of these shooters are clearly unwell.
Which is how the trick is done. The far-right seeks out the mentally ill, encourages them to commit acts of violence and tells them who to commit that violence against.
What group has the most depressed young men? Gamers (and oh look they’ve been infiltrated by the far-right)
What group has the most untreated paranoid schizophrenics? Conspiracy theorists (and oh look they’ve been infiltrated by the far right).
What hobby appeals to violent men with blood-lust? Guns (and oh look they’ve been infiltrated by the far right).
If you know someone who is vulnerable, reach out to them before a neo-nazi does.
“The pole entered the victim’s head beneath his jaw and exited the other side of his head near his right temple area,” the release said.
“The American Flag was still attached (to) the pole at the time.” Due to the size of the pole, firefighters had to cut part of it off for the victim to fit into an ambulance, police said.
“Miraculously, we’re told the victim will survive his injuries, but will likely lose an eye,” the release said.
Amazing the guy lived. I hope he doesn’t have too severe of a traumatic brain injury tho… TBIs can change people’s personalities, make them more aggressive, or can be severe enough that they can no longer care for themselves/speak/have motor control.
That’s why it’s always important to wear a helmet and say fuck the haters. Just takes one wrong fall. Also, obligatory I love helmets!
Next time a crazed redneck stabs me in the head with a US flag, I’ll make sure to put my helmet on first!
The attacker said he deserved it, so obviously if he wasn’t a great guy to begin with.
Thank the Republican Party and Fox News for this.
Guys, I think it’s past due that you invest a gun that shoots American flags.
Nah I want an American flag that shoots bullets, man!
Why not both? A gun that shoots American flags that shoots bullets.
And the bullets shoot recursion!
America, fuck yeah!
America, fuck head!
/sorry
“That’s what he gets,” Collins said, witnesses told police. “He deserved it.”
I’m not sure I’ve ever met a single creature who deserved that…
From the mugshot this dude looks like a mentally ill homeless person. I’m all about blaming the right people but I’ll need to know more before I pass judgement.
It’s okay to judge peeps and have compassion and give them room for redemption. Spearing people with flags should be discouraged.
I can feel compassion for the house-less while still calling this chucklefuck a problem for society.
Wtf these guys have watched too many gore movies. What the hell
I feel bad for thinking this headline has everything.
Biggest dose of American freedumb a man can ever get
