Tim and a guest discuss the Manhattan shooting at NFL offices tied to a shooter's grievance over CTE and concussions, mocking people who instantly claimed it was really about BlackRock and real estate, and noting the pattern of shoehorning political motives onto random violence.

In this bit7 moments
  • People online claimed the shooting was revenge for NFL covering up dangers of the game, or a hit on the BlackRock CEO buying houses.
  • Tim dismisses theories that the shooter understood real estate investment trusts, arguing people will shoehorn political motives into random violence after the fact.
  • The shooter's stated motive was about football, CTE, and concussions—not BlackRock conspiracies.
  • What finally pushes people over the edge in a country where the elite pilfers and ruins lives, but this guy draws the line at covering up CTE.
  • Tim clarifies he doesn't support randomly shooting people, both because it's morally wrong and because it gives the state an excuse to clamp down harder.
  • Four victims have been identified: the security guard, two cops, and a BlackRock employee.
  • Tim insists on showing the victims' photos to honor them instead of glorifying the shooter.
