I think bad decisions influence him cause he was younger than me. It makes me want to know what happened in his life he was able to buy an AR-15 at 22 I think. He had a good life going and it’s like no he tried to shoot Trump and I wonder why? I don’t see how you can just hate someone that much to also end your life over.

Some people see injustice and the suffering of others and are willing to sacrifice their own lives regardless of how good they have it. I also don’t understand this guy’s motivations, but I sympathise with people all over the world who have chosen to end their lives in pursuit of some higher goal.
Look at Aaron Bushnell. He ended his life to protest Israel’s crimes in Gaza and the US’s complicity in them. I often wish I had that courage.
And with regards to killing other people, some people just deserve to die and I’m not succumbing to some liberal bullshit about civility when those same people who spout that nonsense turn a blind eye to the mass slaughter of innocents around the world in the name of the status quo and their privileged existences.
The shooter was a registered Republican and probably did not attempt to shoot Trump out of a concern for the people endangered by Trump (or by Biden for that matter). Also the youtuber whose merch he was wearing at the time larps as a ww2 nazi. So I don’t think he was a lefty of any kind.
I didn’t say he was. I said I had no idea what his motivations were.
I was explaining to OP why some people get themselves killed in the pursuit of their goals.
