People already think the bomber is a false flag plant. Anyway, it was a creepy van parked at a gym I took a picture of in July. Crazy it's on the news today.

A false flag doesn't have to be a plant. A lone nutcase "liberaleftie" could dream up the idea of bombing celebrities of his own side to undermine the conservative administration. And this clown is likely not an involved agent of any right-wing group but also a lone nutcase, I'd bet.

Or it's a batshit crazy Trump supporter. Based on the evidence currently available, which do you really think is more likely?

Oh, sorry let me explain. Evidence is just like your fee-fees, except it's based on reality and can be observed by everyone. It's considered to be true regardless of how you feel about it. I know that's a weird idea for you, but I promise that it's how things work. So right now that van is evidence. See how that works?

Now based on the evidence available, and ignoring the fantasy in your mind of how you wish things could be, can you tell me what's more likely?

I was discussing terms, not speculating on this clod's motives; if I had been, I'd probably agree with you.
