Jesus fucking Christ, the man is himself a practicing Catholic!

I got a permanent ban from Reddit because of my username (after 6 months on that account), which was very similar to my username here - they didn’t get the reference, and said it was promoting violence, even on appeal. Since the issue was my username, I tried to make a new account, and that one was immediately permanently banned for using the same email address (ban evasion). I tried to appeal, since the issue had been my username, and the new one had no violent words, but was of course denied. Since they also track IP addresses and device IDs, I decided that it would be silly to fast-track getting a new phone and/or computer for fucking Reddit, and started to look at the alternatives.

But if the evidence needed to properly prosecute the killers gets collected in that time, isn’t that better?

I’m as anti-Trump as anyone, but the suggestion that a president has any direct control in the hiring or supervision of local police is a bit absurd. Besides which, the shooting happened in 2024, so not while Trump was President. This is much more attributable to the broad, decades-long failings in police training and culture in the US than to the actions of any presidential administration.
