What a fucking idiot
He got locked up, not down.
Checkmate
So is this cruel & unusual punishment? Punishing him with the thing he wanted to prevent?
No, this is a self-fulfilling prophecy.
This is the USA. Locking someone up may well be a cruel punishment, but it is by no means unusual.
When or where has anyone gotten near proposing a hantavirus lockdown? I can only imagine this guy’s news sources.
And then, how would shooting a bunch of random innocent people at Walmart address his grievance about that?

Hey! He’s a p o I i t i c a l
There's a bunch of memes floating around normie social media about hantavirus being covid 2.0. I guess with enough mental illness that can be misconstrued into there being a hantavirus lockdown.
normies
Internet for idiots
We really really need to address the critical thinking skills in this country...
Karens are gonna Karen.
I bet this guy spent most of the Covid years just wilding the fuck out, being Antiva/Antima, anti social distancing, anti any measure that might have harmed his or his orange Jesus' fragile ego. I bet he raged out about Fauci and "gain of function" research, too...
Way to go, chuckles!
If he's 20 now, he was 14-15 when covid started.
Stahp
Yes.
He was 14 in 2020
"...they seized a computer and related accessories." - Like the mouse, monitor and keyboard? Maybe also a game the cops wanted?
Did they leave the guns for the next self-spiralling meltdown?
They found 3 copies of The Sims lol
"Arkansas man engages in mass shootings in empty mall."
I'm not sure that's even a crime here, as long as the mall is on county land and not some liberalized city. /s
Ok, quick question, if there’s a lockdown where the hell is he going to do a mass shooting???
You're putting way more thought into this than he did
Maybe wherever those that are defying lockdown orders are gathered? Just a thought.
Why would there be a lockdown unless we were drowning in rat shit like "A Plague Tale?" Cruise ships get outbreaks of hantavirus because rats have been hanging out on ships since the first ship.
It's spreading between humans too.
Because the people that were on the cruise ship are fucking retarded and are spreading the disease
The PTSD from Covid is real. I have heard highschool kids asking why they haven't sunk the ships to prevent the virus from spreading
Kid got lied to his whole life, now gonna get some hell years for believing it. Sad!!
