Within the last 2 days, 14 people were killed by right-wing extremists in the US and Canada; The "Waffle House Shooter" Travis Reinking, and the Toronto van attack driver, Alek Minassian. Both were brought into custody alive, fairly unharmed.
Rodgers was a self-proclaimed "incel" (involuntarily celibate), a reactionary subculture of (primarily) men who are frustrated with being turned down frequently by women, and feel like they are owed relationships on grounds of their "politeness"

As of now, thats the working theory (key term is 'theory') of why Minassian commited his attack. Following the attack, he stopped his van on the sidewalk and was confronted by an officer who had his handgun pointed at Minassian
Show this thread -
Minassian stepped out of the van, and pointed a gun of his own at the officer, and seemed to act proactively, indication he wanted the officer to shoot him (ill post a video at the end of the thread)

Minassian was taken down unharmed and taken into custody.

Into custody. Unharmed. After murdering 10, pointing a gun at a cop, and provoking the cop to shoot.

This is the face of white supremecy in America. One suspect killed 4, had a sour history with the law, and lead a chase into the next day. The other murdered 10 and pointed a gun at a cop. Both unharmed.
