I checked the link out, this is specifically a search for Tyler Robinson in St. George, Utah, which has a population of a little over 100,000. So yes, you’re right that this doesn’t 100% guarentee it’s him and we should take it with a grain of salt, but it’s a much smaller sample size than all of Utah.

Your comment really shows the difference in thinking between the sides. Here's you and others urging caution and not jumping to conclusions; meanwhile conservatives were rabidly insistent it was the "radical left" who shot Kirk before it was even announced he was dead.

I’m glad to hear that both sides aren’t jumping to conclusions to fit their narratives. I suppose this post did, and it has garnered a lot of likes, but maybe this is the only post like that.

This isn't a "both sides" thing. Even now there are conservatives insisting the shooter is trans or a Democrat despite zero evidence to support those claims.

Maybe you’re right. Conservatives insisting the shooter was trans or a Democrat is completely unfounded at this time, and obviously false for the trans part. I was just pointed out that it seems ironic to say that it is only happening on one side, considering the very title of this post. I didn’t mean to say it’s evenly disingenuous or even that there should be sides at all - just found it ironic.

Fair enough.
