When the years start coming, they don’t stop coming. Kid may not have been the sharpest tool in the shed but he tried to be an all star. He got his game on and went and played.
I changed a ton just the first 2 years of college. I had a real shitty time in high school and didn’t come out of my shell until I got into an environment where I wasn’t getting fucked with every time attention was focused on me. I didn’t stay in touch with anyone from high school but the times I ran into people from then they often commented on how different I was. I definitely became a lot less conservative after I got out of that environment where I felt like almost everyone was my enemy.
I don’t know anything about this dude but that’s what happened with me.
That’s why conservatives hate people getting educated at college. Being better educated tends to make them better people. Excuse me, I mean “more liberal”.
Why are you arguing so hard that the registered Republican and gun nut who tried to kill Trump be on the left?
Are you trying to claim credit, or are you trying to assign blame? Either way, consider not carrying water for the MAGA conspiracists, and listen to the people who actually knew the guy.
Neither? I’m waiting for more of the story to come out. One kid he went to high school with isn’t a reliable source. All I’m saying is my personal experience of changing a lot after I got out of a shitty high school. I know next to nothing about the shooter so I’m not making any claims as far as what his beliefs were one way or the other. It doesn’t really matter what side he was on to me, the actions of one person don’t reflect the whole group.
At 20, were you completely different than you were when you were in High School, or are you being generous to yourself because a lot more time has passed?
Not saying the guy wasn’t, but I’m pretty sure my former classmates would recall me as very conservative, and I changed a lot.
same. once the world starts to roll you, you get better perspectives.

HEY now…
His brain got smart but his head got dumb
From like 2-3 years ago? My friends from that long ago would not get that info wrong. Former classmates from almost 2 decades ago might get it wrong.
Guy was 20, so if we’re talking high school senior classmates, that’s only 2-3 years of growth.
