1 He is a teacher from CA. Of course he was radicalized.

2 "teacher" I doubt he could wipe his own ass.

3 It sounds like he was a tutor, not a classroom teacher — so a very different set of skills.

4 According to the Times of Israel, sharing from the Ay Pee feed:

Allen’s brother contacted police in New London, Connecticut, after receiving the writings, according to the official. In a statement, the New London Police Department said it was contacted at 10:49 p.m., about two hours after the shooting, by an individual who wanted to share information related to it. The police department said it then immediately notified federal law enforcement.

6 No one mentions his half-whiteness. Could that mean something? All three attempted Trump shooters were single white males, and about the same age. All three appear to have acted alone. Living with parents? Gaming geeks? Religious affiliations, if any? Other similarities.

The Shooter was a part-time C2 Education teacher,which is a private tutoring service. He was Teacher of the Month back in 2024.

"Federal campaign finance records show Cole Allen contributed $25 to a Democratic Party political action committee in support of Kamala Harris for president in 2024 and listed his employer as C2 Education. " ... "Allen referred to himself with the monikers, the “Friendly Federal Assassin” and “Cole coldForce.” "

And, it is amazing how quick the left had memes and speaking points ready. Claiming this shooting was all faked to get a "secure" WH Ballroom build.

eg. Dozens of 9gag.com Meme's were posted in less than an hour, claiming every attempt on Trump was faked and used for deflection from various other issues.

It makes a person wonder how many more mentally short in the IQ, Liberal idiots have been indoctrinated to violence, by the Anti-Trump, Anti-USA Democrats politically tuned and produced propaganda?

11 Trump calls ‘60 Minutes’ host ‘disgraceful’ for reading WHCD suspect Cole Allen’s alleged manifesto on air

12 OPEN COMMENT TO THE MEDIA
Disgraceful.
Because it also informs and encourages others like him to act.

OK Media having set a precedent.
Why hasn't the media released all the Tranny Mass Shooters Manfesto's?

Is it because it goes against the LSD perverted social-politics agenda and shows how CRAZY the Left really is?

13 The media continues the same song as it has since before 9/11. Any effect they will have they already have done.

This is what concerns me — also that the entire line of succession was in the room:

We changed hotels at the last minute yesterday, and booked a room at the Hilton at 3p.

I was never asked for a key, but could’ve produced one from a different city. Also never asked for ID, and waltzed through the lobby and lower ballroom areas like I owned the place.

Only saw… https://t.co/AsyWZtL0NH

14 On the other hand, this makes me very happy — and once again grateful the world contains you lot of XY types:

My Takeaway from the WHCD? Dudes Rock.

[FP] It was a big night for men who use the word ‘vehicle,’ opine on the Roman Empire, and show up as heroes when we actually need them.

15 Clay & Buck Show, the national Rush L. replacement and it AIN'T,
are posing questions:

Why the video are cut at certain points of the shooting?

Did a Guard/Police or SS-agent shoot the SS-agent?

Why was/how was the shooter taken down ALIVE when firing a weapon in the hotel?

16 Fits the profile: Left-wing nutjob with TDS.

Where did he obtain the firearms? I heard somewhere he picked them up in Chicago. Why is it that when a left-wing loon does something with a firearm, there is no call for draconian firearm measures. Usually, the left wants to disarm the cops and everyone else.

18 That’s really interesting, Chantry. Do you suppose any of them thought of the open bottles of wine as useful potential defensive weapons? Apparently the thought was not taken seriously by the poster, if it occurred to him at all, because he didn’t mention it.
