‘I am terrified of religious zealots,' Anthony Nephew wrote months before shooting


A Minnesota man at the center of a murder-suicide that left five people dead, including his two sons, expressed a hatred for Christianity on social media prior to the shootings.

Anthony Nephew, 46, was found dead last week from a self-inflicted gunshot wound in his home in Duluth, Minnesota, after killing his wife and son, and his ex-partner and their son, authorities said.

Nephew killed his former partner, 47-year-old Erin Abramson, and their 15-year-old son, Jacob Nephew, inside Abramson's home in the 6000 block of Tacony Street in Duluth, Police Chief Mike Ceynowa revealed during a Nov. 8 press conference.

Wow ..

this man killed both his children, his ex-wife and current wife and himself because Trump won the election.

I do blame the media and these politicians running around spreading propaganda, for real.

Trump was a good president during his last term and literally nothing bad happened...

Christians are the kindest people...

I don't understand why they do this to people, scare people until they think death itself is preferable to living...

I don't know how but somehow we have to get them to stop with all the lies and allow the country to have a future that's good for everyone.

All these propagandists do is hurt people.

The narrative seems to be triggering a lot of unstable people into some unthinkably violent acts.

His motive was his mental health issues. This is a pattern that has been unfortunately more commen since the Columbine Mass Shootings. The question is what is causing these mental health issues. I would argue that the growing social media addictions and a complete lack of coping skills. Young people today are just incapable or ill prepared to face the realistic challenges of the real world. Therefore, they prefer to be an ostrich, who prefer to stick their heads in the sand of social media rather than face the realities of reality. The problem is when they can no longer hide from reality and then must face it. They can't. So they crumble, and regretfully, comit extreme acts due to their lack of coping skills.

This and the pickaxe one, there's probably a lot.

Keeping track of these will be helpful later when people go into denial about it happening.

Who's denying it's happening? Leftist/Democratic Party?
