DENVER (AP) — A teenager suspected in a shooting attack at a suburban Denver high school that left two students in critical condition appeared fascinated with previous mass shootings including Columbine and expressed neo-Nazi views online, according to experts.
Since December, Desmond Holly, 16, had been active on an online forum where users watch videos of killings and violence, mixed in with content on white supremacism and antisemitism, the Anti-Defamation League’s Center on Extremism said in a report.
Holly shot himself following Wednesday’s shooting at Evergreen High School in Jefferson County. He died of his injuries. It is still unclear how he selected his victims. The county was also the scene of the 1999 Columbine High School massacre that killed 14 people.
Holly’s TikTok accounts contained white supremacist symbols, the ADL said, and the name of his most recent account included a reference to a popular white supremacist slogan. The account was unavailable Friday. TikTok said accounts associated with Holly had been banned.
Holly’s family could not be reached. The Associated Press left a message at a telephone number associated with the house that police searched after the shooting.

Like…which other industry would you like the government to get involved in before you entertain calling it socialist? I gather that the argument can be a provocative overstatement. However, I think you would agree that “the USA has successfully integrated many socialist inspired policies into its capitalist system” is an easily defensible position.
Confusing services with socialism. Confusing fascism with socialism. Confusing capitalism with socialism. Confused, confused, confused. Narrow minds are usually very confused.
Oh hey Tiger666, good to see you again my friend. Congrats on ALMOST making an entire reply without trying to insult someone. I hope one day we can in a civil dialog 🤗
Sure it has some social benefits it’s hardly socialist.
We may need to agree to disagree on this one. I take the position that since 1913 w/ the addition of the 16th amendment the USA became socialist. Again though, I do understand why that can be viewed as an overly provocative stance. The distinction for some of these terminologies can get messy.
Out of curiosity, from your perspective, what additional policies would need to be enacted to make the USA socialist?
Abolish the ruling class and distribute the resources of the country in a more fair fashion. Setup a proper social safety net so that Healthcare isn’t tied to employment. For starters
Fuck yeah! I’m with you brother.
Great! Nazis still were socialist though. And nazis are fucking horrible
