Pittsburgh synagogue mass shooter gets his sentence for nation's "worst anti-Semitic attack"

The Jew-hating coward who stormed a synagogue in the center of Pittsburgh's Jewish community and began shooting worshippers, killing 11, and wounded 2 congregants and 5 police officers, in the deadliest anti-Semitic attack in the country's history, will be sentenced to death. Sadly, when it finally happens, perhaps in twenty years or so, the scumbag will be given a painless, lethal injection. At least they say it's painless, but I hope they're wrong.

The shooter, who will remain unnamed, is a white supremacist who has spewed Jew hatred online before he initiated the attack on the Tree of Life Synagogue in 2018. 

Members of three congregations had gathered for Sabbath worship and study on the day of the carnage.

The shooter is a former truck driver from Baldwin. He was convicted on 63 criminal counts and the jury on Wednesday recommended that he be put to death for the attack.

He showed little reaction as the sentence was announced, briefly acknowledging his legal team and family as he was led from the courtroom. A judge will formally impose the sentence later.

Jurors were unanimous in finding that the shooter's attack was motivated by his anti-Semitism, and that he chose Tree of Life for its location in one the largest and most historic Jewish communities in the U.S. so that he could “maximize the devastation, amplify the harm of his crimes, and instill fear within the local, national, and international Jewish communities.” 

They also found that he lacked remorse and has a brain the size of a split pea.

The family of 97-year-old Rose Mallinger, who was killed in the attack, and her daughter, Andrea Wedner, who was shot and wounded, thanked the jurors and said “a measure of justice has been served.”

“Returning a sentence of death is not a decision that comes easy, but we must hold accountable those who wish to commit such terrible acts of antisemitism, hate, and violence,” the family said in a written statement.

The shooter's lead defense attorney, Judy Clarke, declined comment because she's bright enough to know better.

The verdict came after a long trial as jurors heard the details of how the shooter reloaded at least twice as he cowardly shot the unarmed Jews. He surrendered only after he ran out of ammunition.

Now the wait begins as the process of executing a murdering piece of human excrement sits on death row, probably for years and millions in attorney's fees, before they put his lights out.

And where there is never a shortage of anti-Semitism in the world, this garbage heap of a man will be lauded in prison by sympathetic skinheads and other Jew haters.

Victims names released, more info provided on synagogue shooting

The low-life anti Semite gunman who, at a Pittsburgh synagogue, killed eleven Jews and wounded six others, four of whom are police, is in custody and currently in the hospital after being shot by police.

We are learning more about him but I will not mention his name because he doesn't deserve the notoriety. According to the latest report, he will appear in court Monday.

The 46-year-old crap weasel posted on Gab.com just two hours before he burst into the Tree of Life Synagogue during a Shabbat [Sabbath] services about the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society (HIAS):

"HIAS likes to bring invaders in that kill our people. I can't sit by and watch my people get slaughtered. Screw your optics, I'm going in."

He's "going in"--sounds like a tough soldier attacking the enemy, but the coward was attacking unarmed, peaceful people who were worshipping at a service to officially name a baby, not slaughtering his "people," whoever they are.

HIAS is a Maryland-based nonprofit that helps refugees globally and is guided by Jewish values, according to the organization.

Of the eleven people killed, eight were men, and three were women. They ranged in age from 54 to 97. Their names were released Sunday morning:

Joyce Fienberg, 75 of Oakland; Richard Gottfried, 65 of Ross Township; Rose Mallinger, 97 of Squirrel Hill; Jerry Rabinowitz, 66, or Edgewood; Cecil Rosenthal, 59, of Squirrel Hill; David Rosenthal, 54, of Squirrel Hill; Bernice Simon, 84, of Wilkinsburg; Sylvan Simon, 87, of Wilkinsburg; Daniel Stein, 71, of Squirrel Hill; Melvin Wax, 88, of Squirrel Hill; and Irving Younger, 69, of Mount Washington.

A U.S. attorney in Pennsylvania filed 29 federal charges against the terrorist Saturday, and the suspect faces local charges as well. If all goes as it should, and the shooter is found guilty, he may face the death penalty.

Federal charges include 11 counts of obstruction of exercise of religious beliefs resulting in death; 11 counts of use of a firearm to commit murder during a crime of violence; four counts of obstruction of the exercise of religious beliefs resulting in bodily injury to a public safety officer and three counts of use and discharge of a firearm during a crime of violence.

"The actions of [name withheld] represent the worst of humanity," U.S. attorney for the Western District of Pennsylvania Scott W. Brady said. "Please know that justice in this case will be swift and it will be severe." Yes, let's hope it doesn't take several decades to end this miserable POS's life.

Gab.com promotes itself as a free-speech alternative to Twitter. The gunman launched an account on that site in January and made frequent posts about Jews, including conspiracy theories.

One post on Gab.com read:

"Open your eyes! It's the filthy EVIL jews Bringing the Filthy EVIL Muslims into the Country!!"

Breathtaking stupidity.

There was another post featuring a photo of a Nazi concentration camp where Jews were cremated during the Second World War. The caption below the photo read: "Make Ovens 1488F Again." The first two numbers, 14, refer to the white supremacist "14 Words" slogan and "88" stands for "Heil Hitler" as the letter "H" is the eighth letter of the alphabet.

One post by the terrorist criticized Trump, calling him a "globalist, not a nationalist. There is no #MAGA as long as there is a [slur for Jews] infestation."

So whenever you hear Democrats refer to conservatives or Trump in terms of being like Hitler, or the Nazis, they dilute the real horror of the Nazi regime which in itself, is anti Semitic. Don't allow them to get away with it--call them on their rhetoric and lies.

Gab.com said in a statement it suspended the shooter's account after his name was mentioned on police radio chatter about the shooting. It then backed up the content of the account and alerted the FBI.

"Gab unequivocally disavows and condemns all acts of terrorism and violence," a statement read.

PayPal has banned Gab.com from using its online payment service.

Police report that the terrorist had 21 guns registered in his name and was not known to law enforcement prior to the murders. He is a registered voter with "no affiliation" in Allegheny County, PA.

He once posted on social media in reference to President Trump:

"For the record, I did not vote for him nor have I owned, worn or even touched a MAGA hat."

So when the left tries to blame President Trump for the actions of this sick individual, point this out to them and also remind them that Trump has a daughter, son-in-law, and three grandchildren that are Jewish. And maybe remind them that he was the only president to keep his promise to Israel by moving the U.S. Embassy to Israel to its rightful capital, Jerusalem.
