Are you sure? He was not registered with any political party.

Post the specific parts that back up your assertion.

Per the article, the Wall Street Journal changed its headline from 'Ammunition in Kirk Shooting Engraved With Transgender, Antifascist Ideology: Sources' to 'Early Bulletin Said Ammunition in Kirk Shooting Engraved With Transgender, Antifascist Ideology; Some Sources Urge Caution'.

How can etching be correct or incorrect?

If you mean the paper's interpretation of them, the Wall Street Journal got this wrong as well.

Contrary to the Journal’s report, the inscriptions reflected a scatter of memes and cultural references: “Hey fascist catch!” with arrows, the anti-fascist song lyric “Bella Ciao,” “If you read this, U are gay LMAO,” and the internet meme phrase “notices bulge, OwO what’s this?”

That last inscription has long circulated in online spaces as an exaggerated parody of flirtation popular in furry and role-play communities, later absorbed into meme culture. As KnowYourMeme documents, it is a digital joke and not a political doctrine.

The difference is…..the left paint themselves as the nice people, on the right side of history, be nice, be kind, etc etc etc.

When it comes down to it, they are the most violent (antifa) and most authoritarian. They won’t engage in debate, hate anyone that disagrees with them, and ultimately kills those that challenges them.

Don't most people think they're nice, kind and on the right-side of history? Are there many right-wingers who think they're nasty people doing bad things? Most people think they're well-intentioned just as a way to live with themselves.

Also, I don't think you can say the left kills those who challenge them based on rare incidents. But if they are, then why are the right-wing terrorists killing people if not being they have a fundamental disagreement? The pro-abortion Democratic senator wasn't murdered because the shooter agreed with her on the issue. Jo Cox was pretty much murdered by someone with a very different worldview from hers, and although the assassination of MLK is a whole can of worms to open, he was assassinated because he was leading a civil rights movement.

We might as well just wait and see. When this first happened, there were people online stating the shooter was trans.

So far it's looking like someone who hated Kirk, was probably left-wing since it's odd to hate someone for being a fascist if you're on the right, but loved guns and came from a Republican family.

Apparently that was another of these stupid rumours started because (allegedly) the recovered bullets were stamped with "TRN" - which is the manufacturers code (Turan).
