Fuck me, our cultures are different. Reverence for an instrument of death.
And you wonder how you ended up with Trump as your figurehead.

I believe that's what happened; in this video (first posted on page 1), a neighbor describes hearing the shots:
"It appears he was targeted," said D.C. Police Captain Anthony Haythe.

Come On, We All Know It Was Seth Rich
It’s stupid we’re still talking about Russian hackers vs. anonymous insiders when we all know who the source of the DNC leaks was.
Most of my readers are probably familiar with Rich’s case, but let me catch you all up just in case.
Seth Rich’s name has been back in the spotlight ever since WikiLeaks operative and former UK ambassador Craig Murray told Dailymail.com a few days ago that U.S. intelligence is once again lying to the American people about the Russian origins of the leaks, stating that both the DNC leaks and the Podesta files instead came from Americans working inside the DNC who did not obtain them by hacking since they had legal access to them. He stated that the leakers were motivated by “disgust at the corruption of the Clinton Foundation and the tilting of the primary election playing field against Bernie Sanders.” Murray (who has actually been saying this since his meeting with Julian Assange in October) has not named the leakers, but Rich was a Data Director at the DNC, and died under highly suspicious circumstances the same month the DNC leaks were released.
Democratic party loyalists have predictably attempted to slander Murray's name since his comments began gaining traction, pointing out that he was fired from his job as ambassador in 2004 for alleged "misconduct", but a little research into his past reveals that he was actually fired for speaking out against torture, decrying the cruel and oppressive government in a nation the UK was courting as an ally, and of course, criticizing the U.S. government. All other manufactured charges against him were dropped, but his dismissal remained, because he had too much integrity for the British government. So he's a truth teller. He's our people.
In the wee hours of July 10th, 2016, Seth Rich was shot twice in the back when walking from the bar to his home in Washington, D.C. Police ended up calling it it a likely botched robbery, despite the fact that none of Rich’s money or possessions were taken, and the fact that it’s hard to imagine a “botched robbery” ending up with the victim getting shot in the back. Robberies get botched when the victim does something that scares the robber; if they were going to attack him from behind they’d at least take the possessions they were planning on stealing. I could see a robber panicking enough to run away without taking anything if Rich had gotten stupid and tried to bull rush an armed mugger, but if that had happened he’d have been facing the gunman. If he was shot in the back without anything being taken it was because his killer wanted his life, not his wallet.
Seth Rich gave the DNC documents to an intermediary, who passed them on to Craig Murray in a clandestine hand-off near American university, and then Rich was assassinated for crossing powerful people. Twelve days later, the documents he’d leaked were published by WikiLeaks, sparking outrage among Sanders supporters and surely costing Clinton the election.
Since that time, Julian Assange (who's said on more than one occasion that the Russians are not the source of the leaks) has mentioned Seth Rich's murder when speaking of the risks that leakers and whistleblowers take and said "no" when told it was a robbery, and WikiLeaks is offering a twenty thousand dollar reward to anyone who can provide evidence leading to conviction of Rich’s killer. Neither Murray nor Assange has directly confirmed or denied that Rich was the source of the DNC leaks, but they certainly haven’t gone out of their way to avoid that impression.
So that’s the narrative I’m going with, and the hell with anyone who says I should give anonymous sources from the lying den of vipers at the CIA more credibility than the aforementioned mountain of evidence. Not that that will stop Democratic party loyalists from trying to convince me that up is down and day is night.
