    By refusing to release the name and identity of this domestic terrorist, police are now giving his friends, family, and network time to delete and swipe clean any online history or link to this man. Even in death he gets white privilege.https://twitter.com/shaunking/status/976426807091257345 …

    A 24 year old white man just blew himself up in a standoff with Austin police. He is the lone suspect in bombings that murdered a Black boy and a Black man and injured many others. Hateful well armed white men continue to be the most dangerous terroristic threat to this nation.

        I tend to agree but on this one I also think there’s some MAGA privilege going on.

        And the police may be gathering evidence before anything gets destroyed while no one (including family) knows who he is.

        We know if he was POC. There would have splashed his name and picture all over everything. His family would have reporters outside and talking to his former classmates and teachers.

        All while they peddled some false narrative about the victims so they didn’t have to say they were looking for a terrorist. The #hypocrisy is sickening. That whole family had to live with that fake story for a week, this screwed up fam gets to hide evidence. #BLM

        No, the feds lockdown and swipe that shit before anyone touches it, it is now tampering with evidence of anyone does anything to a suspects social media. Plus, Facebook and social media don’t erase anything and will willingly hand it over after the bad press this week.

        I was getting ready to say the same thing. Nothing is permanently erased on social media. Just gonna take longer for the public to see or hear about it.

        Maybe police don't know if he is the only person involved? Or maybe the Same white privilege you share Sean?

        A strong predictor of copycat crimes in the wake of a mass violent act like this is how much coverage the individual gets. I doubt ATX cops are doing it for this reason, but type of coverage has a huge impact, so there is that benefit. https://nonotoriety.com

        I haven’t heard a SINGLE thing about this aside from your tweet. When I saw the notification I thought there’d be *something* on my feed mentioning it, but no. Not only is he being given privacy and dignity that he in no way deserves, he may as well still be at large.
