We absolutely know who the shooter is, which is why we're raising the bounty to lure them into a false sense of security. The net is closing in.

Anybody who sells the shooter out to the cops for any amount of money, especially that fucking insult of a lowball offer, should really ask themselves why they are ratting on a person who had no issue shooting somebody in the streets in broad daylight and has pretty broad support in having done that. Why attract that attention to yourself?

i mean, didn't the social mass murderer cash out like 100-150 million dollars worth of options as a little treat for himself in the week before he died in a folk hero involved shooting? i know lowballing the proletarians is sort of The Move™ for class traitors to find each other, but lmao.

[–] AcidSmiley@hexbear.net 14 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It's not just about lowballing the proletariat, offering a million dollar reward is reserved for people the FBI wants to be seen as a threat to national security. They can't give him the same supervillain notoriety as some Middle Eastern guy whose hideout is about to be on the receiving end of a trillion $ worth of Raytheon products. It would cement his folk hero status and they know that. They're lowballing bc the ghouls are scared of where this is going.

If they raise the reward they also invite someone else to say, "listen, son, they've given me six months to live unless I get this medication and the insurance company denied the claim; I'll be popping out for a bit and when I get home you can call the FBI for what I suspect will be quite the prize."

Oh interesting. FBI I'm sure you offer similar rewards for every murder in South Side Chicago right?

Oh you don't? Interesting. What's different I wonder soviet-hmm

[–] Wolfman86@hexbear.net 16 points 1 week ago

There was a child shot in the same area. They’re gonna come up with a similar reward for him too, I’m sure of it.

WE'RE CLOSING IN ON THE SHOOTER. HE HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED AND LOCATED. BUT IF ANYONE WANTS TO LET US KNOW WHO HE IS AND WHERE HE IS WE'LL GIVE THEM 50,000 DOLLARS

[–] coeliacmccarthy@hexbear.net 45 points 1 week ago (2 children)

damn that'll pay for a week's hospitalization or 9 month's rent in a 500 sq ft apartment in midtown

One and three-quarters trips to the emergency room by ambulance

[–] Wolfman86@hexbear.net 5 points 1 week ago

It’s less than half of the total value of my UK mortgage. Imagine risking your life for that.

I think there was also another post about it already, but they also found monopoly money in their backpack. Can't make this stuff up.

[–] radio_free_asgarthr@hexbear.net 39 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Hello FBI, I have the identity of the shooter. His first name is Joe, last name Mama. That's right, Jo' Mama.

Filling the fbi hot line up with Bartman pranks

FBI: "Hey everyone, hey everyone. I am looking for Amanda Hugandkiss"

[–] BodyBySisyphus@hexbear.net 34 points 1 week ago (1 children)

"Hello, FBI? Yes, I have some information. The shooter was dressed in black and had a backpack on, and he had a gun. ... Well I didn't see 'novel' and 'useful' anywhere in the ad, do I get my 50k by check or...?"

[–] Bureaucrat@hexbear.net 18 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Class action lawsuit against the FBI for false advertising

[–] redtea@lemmygrad.ml 8 points 1 week ago

Them trying to argue that they stopped using the description of the killer after that info was reported.

[–] Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net 32 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Gross. They know the US population is suffering economicly and are desperate for money and they're going to take advantage of that.

[–] Bureaucrat@hexbear.net 39 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

I just thought it was funny because it shows that they have no idea who/where the shooter is. What is 50k going to get someone? 5 months rent in NYC?

[–] ped_xing@hexbear.net 34 points 1 week ago

One hospital admission denied by UHC?

[–] Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net 26 points 1 week ago

Oh, it is funny. I just find the FBIs tactics disgusting

[–] godlessworm@hexbear.net 29 points 1 week ago

i've just spotted the shooter. attached below is a photo

[–] AshenWolf@hexbear.net 28 points 1 week ago

Yeah, even if I did have information, I wouldn't have information.

[–] Antiwork@hexbear.net 26 points 1 week ago

Also you would think the family would be offering up millions. Not like they would notice. Unless…

[–] vegeta1@hexbear.net 26 points 1 week ago

That still won't cover the ridiculous medical costs for some of the shit around funny enough i-cant

[–] Commiejones@hexbear.net 26 points 1 week ago

I have information! it isn't great info but I'll accept $500 for it

The infoHe's a damn cool dude.

[–] buh@hexbear.net 23 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Weird, I thought they have his name 🤔

[–] Bureaucrat@hexbear.net 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It's a very interesting strategy. They're playing 4D chess by telling us they've already figured out who he is and simultaneously giving him a false sense of ease by upping the bounty.

[–] kristina@hexbear.net 2 points 1 week ago

dudes probably just chilling playing video games rn

"We know who the guy is. Definitely. Trust us."

There's a possibility that the NYPD/FBI does have more info than they've publicly let on. Who knows.

But if you believe that right now based solely on the word of the most lying-ass liars in the country, well, I have multiple bridges to sell you.

Much like the "Is Russia about to roll into Ukraine?" news right before that happened, the end result, what actually happens is sort of irrelevant. Your analysis and why you thought one thing or another is important. If you just blindly believed the US state dept, who constantly lies, and think you were "totally correct and the left are dumdum Putin fans!", congratulations, you're a dumb fuck. And it's the same thing here.

If you believe probably the most corrupt, lying POS mayor (ex-cop, btw... "ex" you never stop being a cop) in the country at the moment and the FBI blindly without them providing literally any reason to believe them in this case... you're a sucker and a dupe. That remains true independent of if they're actually lying or not

I'm saying all of this now so that IF in a week or something it turns out that this one singular time the FBI wasn't lying, the liberals have already been preemptively informed that they are dipshit dinguses for believing them without evidence (and secondly for celebrating "being right"...). Gotta preempt everything now since liberals have fully failed to see that their analysis around things is wrong. Sometimes you will accidentally have the correct guess as to ultimate outcome even with the wrong analysis. But much like math classes, the method and the logic is important. Not just the answer. That's why you gotta show your work. Show your work libs! (You can't when they don't release evidence... this is my whole repeated, long winded ass point)

[–] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 15 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Even people I know in russia were blindsided by that. We were literally mid conversation about it when all of a sudden everyone was like holy shit they actually did it.

[–] blame@hexbear.net 21 points 1 week ago

I definitely know who this person is behavior.

[–] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 20 points 1 week ago
[–] Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net 19 points 1 week ago

Give them fake info and cash the $50k knowing you made their job harder lmao gottem

[–] Mardoniush@hexbear.net 12 points 1 week ago

they've got nothing

[–] EnsignRedshirt@hexbear.net 8 points 1 week ago

$50,000 is the perfect amount of money to offer, imo. Just enough that they can pretend they’re taking it seriously, but not enough that they’re going to get overwhelmed by scammers and nutjobs trying to get a piece of the pie.
