On Monday, a tragic shooting took place in Louisville, Kentucky, leaving five innocent people dead at the hands of a disgruntled former bank employee. The shooter, 25-year-old Connor Sturgeon, had recently been fired from his job at the bank, and in a fit of rage, decided to take the lives of his former colleagues.

But what the media fails to report is the clearly evident political ideology of the shooter – one that is staunchly anti-Trump and pro-lockdown. Sturgeon’s social media accounts were riddled with anti-Trump messages and pro-lockdown posts, showcasing his liberal and misguided views.
The Louisville Kentucky shooter used the Instagram handle CSturg41.

In one particular post, Sturgeon displayed his hatred for Fox News host Tucker Carlson, calling him a “moron.” This is not only an attack on Carlson, but also on conservative values and media outlets. Sturgeon’s anti-Trump memes and posts further prove his outlandish and misguided beliefs, with one meme falsely accusing former President Trump of being a racist.
It is deeply concerning when individuals like Sturgeon are indoctrinated by liberal propaganda and allow it to shape their mentality to the point of taking violent action. It is clear that Sturgeon was not mentally stable and his extremist leftist views are to blame for this tragic event.
As a society, we must closely examine the harmful effects of liberal indoctrination and work towards fostering a culture of individual responsibility and rational thinking. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the victims and their families affected by this senseless act of violence perpetrated by a left-wing extremist.
