Disaster Synagogue Shooting in Poway, California - "To the glow-niggers and Jewed-media reading this. I think it is important for you to know that I did not do this alone. I had the help of a man named Felix Arvid Ulf Kjellberg."

Happening now. 5pm EST: 1 death (confirmed by mayor), 3 injuries.

Link to the gunman's manifesto: https://archive.fo/mhFD2 His name is John T. Earnest.
He posted about it on 8chan, but the post was removed quickly. Claimed he would be livestreaming it, but set livestream to private instead of public. The original post was similar in style to that of Brenton Tarrant's (Christchurch).

Lets just assume the shooter is right.

Imagine having a long magnificent bloodline only for it to end with you barely killing one person and wounding a couple more even though you had the total element of surprise. Then shitting yourself and running away from a unarmed person. I'm sure the many european ancestors who fought in wars are looking down full of pride. This man contributed less to his society then the people he claims are ruining it.

These are probably the best descriptions of what a proper command-voice should sound like.

".... so loud, the priest at a neighboring church heard him. Others later told him it sounded like 4-5 people yelling."

Combat Vet Who Stopped The Synagogue Shooter: ‘I Scared The Hell Out Of Him’

Oscar Stewart stopped the gunman inside the Chabad of Poway synagogue in San Diego on Saturday

dailycaller.com

It's also a good lesson on violence & force-of-action in response to an attack; even if your hands are empty, don't give the other guy time call bluff or give chase.

The virgin shooter Vs The Chad unarmed vet

Imagine being such a pussy you run away from someone who doesn't even have a weapon while you have a loaded gun. At least brenton stood his ground when he was rushed.

This is why I advocate people to stop running away, huddling in corners or dark rooms and actually fighting back. Had everyone in the christchurch mosque rushed brenton then i'm sure a ton of people still would have died, but the body count would have definitely been a lot lower.

I know it's against human nature to run towards someone like a shooter, but best case scenario you do what this guy did and stop more people from dying or getting hurt. Worst case you fail and you die fighting instead of on the floor in a huddled mass.

In such a situation it's best for the individual to run and best for the group to zerg rush. Individual instinct always wins.

Arm and train everyone in proper firearm handling and etiquette, and there will be at worst a brief rash of shootings before suddenly everyone gets real fucking nice and law-abiding.

no need, people who want to train will keep training and sheep will bleat as it always had. Let's just not let assholes infringe any more on 2a. Everyone who feel the need to be armed, already is. You can't make sheep into something they are not.

Prisoner's Dilemma, now in "for keeps" form.

more like instinct version of it. Not a whole lot of time to think when flight-or-fight response kicks in. Some will flight and some will fight, the other people serve more like inanimate objects in that.

 

[ButterBar]

Even if this particular synagogue's congregants did not, as a congregation, advocate for letting in infinite refugees, you better believe they advocated for sending young American boys to die fighting Iran, or against Iraqi or Afghani freedom fighters. God damn them.

Maybe they did, but it was two veterans who didn't die who stopped the shooting. It's not like they didnt have skin in the game as a community. Even then this community is likely highly supportive of Trump, it's almost guaranteed they did not advocate for refugees. Also afghan freedom fighters? Lol, the freedom to rape and enslave and stone women for leaving the home with a male escort who was not a blood relative maybe.

Andrew Jackson is another miraculous near-miss - an insane house painter walked up to him with two loaded pistols during an 1835 state funeral at the Capitol. Both guns misfired because it was humid that day. Jackson (being Jackson) then started beating the would-be assassin with his cane and probably would have killed him if the crowd hadn't pulled him away.

wtf I love Andrew Jackson now

Damb, this one just broke pewdiepie.

I think the media's straight up broken PewDiePie now. It's easy to ignore some regressive dummies at the Wall Street Journal until two 8chan neo-Nazi larpers gives them justification with no substance (at least to your run of the mill normie) to forever call him an enabler of white identity politics. Even when the identity politics stuff blows over (if it does), he'll be remembered to some normie as an enabler of white supremacists.

 

[Tasty Tatty]

I watched the video again, and I don't feel like he's "apologising". He's saying that

1. People are carrying away with the meme, so he rather ends it now before people keep using it for bad.

2. He doesn't want to give anybody more attention.

I think both are good reasons.

Most normies I know don't mind what people say about pewdiepie, tbh.

I'm still waiting to find out if this sped got his hands on an illegal by CA law rifle, or if he was planning to massacre 100 j00s with an in-spec rifle. Because if a 19-y/o autismo can find an illegal weapon then, lol, QQ CA.

You cannot end a meme. A meme ends of its own volition and not before.

Not this time it didn't. Also, not with training.

What's best for the group is best for the individuals in that group too if everyone adopts that strategy. The only reason that defection is the default strategy is because that isn't the case.

If people actually practiced and drilled for situations like this, the outcomes could be a lot different.

 

[Your Weird Fetish]

It will usually be bad for the first guy to lunge at a shooter no matter if the whole group is behind him. Which is why it's hard to get a group to do that. Someone has to be first. Someone is likely to get shot.

It really isn't that hard to find someone to throw themselves in harms way, doubly so in a close-knit setting like this example.

 

[Far Queue]

Get used to 8ch weirdos shooting places up while spouting memes telling people to subscribe to pewdiepie. Clownworld timeline.

To me, chan spergs trying to shoot up places while shouting memes sounds par for the course. I think it's only clownworld timeline if some jihadis yell it before an attack or if they start posting it along with ISIS recruiting stuff on Twitter. If the fucking Islamic extremists can meme and the left can't, then you know it's full-tilt funhouse clownworld timeline.

Poway rabbi pleads guilty to tax fraud
https://www.10news.com/news/local-n...report-poway-rabbi-pleads-guilty-to-tax-fraud (https://archive.vn/kXtcM)

SAN DIEGO (KGTV) -- A Poway rabbi who survived a gunman's rampage on his synagogue over a year ago is facing probation after pleading guilty to federal charges of tax fraud and wire fraud, the U.S. Attorney's Office in San Diego said in a press conference Tuesday.

Rabbi Yisroel Goldstein pleaded guilty to participating in a 90-10 "tax deduction conspiracy" in which Goldstein collected large donations to Chabad of Poway, but then secretly returned 90 percent of the contribution back to the individual along with a receipt.

"The donors then illegally claimed huge tax deductions for these fake donations, and Rabbi Goldstein kept for himself 10 percent of the donations which over the course of this fraud totaled more than $600,000," said United States Attorney Robert S. Brewer.

"Sadly, the facts of this case show a willful effort to deceive on the part of a trusted community leader," said Brewer.

The U.S. Attorney said his office began investigating Goldstein in November 2016. The rabbi learned about the investigation in 2018 after federal agents served search warrants at his home and office.

Brewer said Goldstein submitted fraudulent invoices to the Federal Emergency Management Agency and other entities in order to obtain grant funding. The rabbi created fake invoices using a
fictitious construction company to receive money for property damage repairs caused by the 2007 San Diego wildfires.

Goldstein obtained grants to make improvements or repairs to Chabad, but he instead pocketed the money, according to the criminal complaint.

Goldstein, 58, fell into the national spotlight in April 2019 after a gunman armed with an AR-15 style weapon opened fire inside the Chabad of Poway during the final day of Passover. The shooting left one person dead and three others injured, including a young girl.

Federal officials have charged suspected gunman John Earnest with 109 total hate crime-related violations. Under the federal charges, Earnest faces a possible death sentence.

Goldstein was shot in both index fingers and lost one of his index fingers as a result. The rabbi was invited to the National Prayer Breakfast at the White House days after the incident.

In response to the charges, the Chabad of Poway said it removed Goldstein from his duties and terminated its relationship with him.

"Upon learning of these allegations some months ago, we launched an internal review, following which the rabbi was removed from all of his duties at Chabad of Poway, his relationship with the organization terminated, and he was dismissed by Chabad-Lubavitch Headquarters as a representative of the movement," the Chabad of Poway said in a statement.

"We hope and pray that Rabbi Goldstein finds the professional help that he needs and makes amends to our country and to the people he has hurt. And we pray that the Goldstein family find the healing they so deserve," the Chabad of Poway added.

Brewer said Goldstein has cooperated with authorities, leading to his co-defendants' guilty pleas.

The U.S. Attorney's Office is recommending Goldstein be sentenced to probation. Goldstein has also agreed to pay $2.5 million in restitution, said Brewer.

The Chabad of Poway issued the following statement:

This is a very painful time for our congregation. Following the attack on our synagogue last year, when we were frozen with shock and fear, Rabbi Yisroel Goldstein brought us together and inspired our community. That was the Rabbi Goldstein we knew. That was the Rabbi Goldstein the world came to know.

Yet, we’ve since learned that Rabbi Goldstein violated the law, contradicted what our synagogue stands for, and transgressed the very moral and ethical rules of the Torah he taught.

Upon learning of these allegations some months ago, we launched an internal review, following which the rabbi was removed from all of his duties at Chabad of Poway, his relationship with the organization terminated, and he was dismissed by Chabad-Lubavitch Headquarters as a representative of the movement. (We were unable to disclose this at the time so as not to interfere with the U.S. Attorney’s investigation.) Throughout, we have cooperated with law enforcement, who have treated our congregation with respect, dignity and grace.

How do we reconcile this heartbreaking reality with the good Rabbi Goldstein accomplished during his decades of service? How do we separate his unethical and unlawful behavior from his many positive contributions to our community? We will surely struggle with these questions for a long time to come.

Despite these challenges, we are resolved to move forward together and to distinguish between Rabbi Goldstein’s own misdeeds and the timeless ethical and moral Torah teachings he helped connect us to. We will continue to serve G‑d with joy, to heal and grow stronger, to share acts of goodness and kindness, and to ensure that Chabad of Poway renews its role as a beacon of light and source of inspiration for the greater Poway community and beyond.

We hope and pray that Rabbi Goldstein finds the professional help that he needs and makes amends to our country and to the people he has hurt. And we pray that the Goldstein family find the healing they so deserve.

We request that during the coming days and weeks our community and the Goldstein family please be given the respect, privacy and space they need. Any questions relating to the investigation should be directed to the U.S. Attorney’s Office.

Chabad of Poway
