At the time he was shot he was talking about the problem of trans people being much more violent than average. If his shooter gets caught and is trans, well, that would be "died for his beliefs" in a very extreme way.
If they are trans or not he still "died for his beliefs", as he had said:
"I think it’s worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our God-given rights."
How about stoning gay people? Or pushing the Great Replacement theory? Or claiming that the Texan flooding deaths were due to DEI initiatives? Like did you read it?
I looked at the stoning gay people one through the link there and it isn't clear if he's advocating for it, against it, or just stating a fact about what the bible says. He used it to respond to a pro-gay Christian (Ms. Rachel from kids videos) who favored a law from Leviticus (love thy neighbor) and he pointed out that the same book also says to stone gays. He said that if you love God, you should love his laws, including that one (implying that Ms. Rachel should want to stone gays to be consistent with her stated belief). He described it as God's perfect law... but it's not clear if he actually condones or believes that or is just making a claim about what's true within the canon of the bible or what Ms. Rachel would believe to be consistent with herself.
Do you know if he ever clarified his position on killing gays anywhere else? If that's the only time he ever publicly mentioned it, on it's own, it's too ambiguous to call preaching hate.
So far, I can't find any hate preaching. I don't want to sift through everything just in case there's some hidden gem. You could just tell me which one is pretty clear if you knew about it. So I assume you're just repeating some popular opinion that isn't even true.
> How do you imagine that working? Do you call many things you don’t support “God’s perfect law?”
Imagine instead of the Bible, it's The Lord Of The Rings. Somebody examining it might describe the special master ring as being Sauron's perfect creation, or whatever. That doesn't mean they believe it is in real life. They're talking within the context of the story.
You're saying he preaches hate by promoting killing gays. If that's what he was doing, wouldn't he have been clearer about it instead of just using it as part of a smug retort showing somebody else's hypocrisy?
> What do you mean here?
She used Leviticus to justify her beliefs, but apparently cherry-picked the parts she wanted and neglected the stoning gays part. He's pointing out that the actual text says the opposite of what she believes based on that same book of the bible.
Since every example you've shown and I've looked at has been weak or nothing, I conclude that you're wrong about him preaching hate and instead you've just been fooled by media telling you that and you never bothered to look at the evidence. Really, it's that media that's been preaching hate - hence why he was so widely hated.
> That doesn't mean they believe it is in real life. They're talking within the context of the story.
So you read a bunch of his writings, or watched his videos, and didn’t pick up on the fact that he was a devout Christian?

It’s clear you started with your conclusion—very efficient, but a waste of my time. I’m done feeling the trolls, goodbye.
Yes I knew he was a Christian. So? Ms. Rachel is too and she somehow doesn't want to kill gays, despite quoting Leviticus.
At the end of the day, you have no evidence that he was preaching hate. So you must have come to that conclusion by believing what someone told you without checking it yourself. If you were being skeptical, you could go and ask those people who told you that to explain their reasons and maybe they do have something, or maybe they don't.
That right here is why leftism is such a violent ideology and why all good people should abandon it:
1. Pick some ideas.
2. Define any disagreement with those ideas as "hate".
3. Kill anyone who disagrees on the grounds that "haters" deserve it.
This is circular mirror-world logic. The left is full of hate-based ideas. If leftists were being systematically mown down and Trump led celebrations each time, justifying himself by this logic, you would find it appalling.
I’m not justifying anything, just pointing out he made a lot of different groups of people angry, and so it’s hard to tell which group the shooter may have belonged to.
It's not hard at all. He said things that upset the left, a violent leftist killed him, leftists are now celebrating. And he was without a doubt killed by a leftist. According to investigators they found his ammo, which was engraved with "transgender and anti-fascist ideology".
Delusional. It's just come out that he was living with a trans roommate, as if it wasn't enough that he killed a conservative pundit, his bullets were engraved with far left Antifa slogans, sybols and songs, and the investigation has revealed a man "deeply indoctrinated into far left ideology". There is zero evidence for your viewpoint.
None of this is surprising. There's a long history of far-left Antifa and trans activist types trying to kill people. Look at the armed far-left militia that attacked an ICE office, or the "trans rationalist cults" that killed their landlord and others.
