You can buy both garlic and onions by the bucket. There will be more testosterone in a single hour of this event than the rest of the g*y area.” Click here to view the original message and here for an archived version (Warning: possible NSFW language/content). Many are speculating this tragic shooting may have been a false flag event to either frame and/or shutdown 4chan”s /pol/ (Politically Incorrect) board or distract from another major news story. “They”re trying to frame us,” one user wrote. Another said, “Why does no one care about the fact that an anon posted [this message] BEFORE the shooting?” Here are a few more comments: “False flag attack. They wanted to kill 4chan users as well.” “100% ANTIFA PSYOP.” “So, how hard are they trying to get us shut down eh? They”re willing to kill people to get it donethat”s how much damage we do to their “cause.'” “This is a false flag attack to distract us from big news / leaks tomorrow or this week.” Some even pointed out how there seemed to be a pre-planned “propaganda” message that was posted shortly after the shooting occurred which was directed to journalists and claimed the “kids” who used /pol/ were radicalized by popular video games. View an archived version of that message here. Others noticed a strange new trend of users (or shills, as they call them) saying the archive link to 4plebs, and even various image files, contain viruses: “Shills are attempting to say this link is infected. This was posted one day before the shooting. This is a false flag operation. Do not let it slide. It is not [an] “infected link.” Don”t let the shills scrub this.” We scanned the 4plebs URL using Virus Total and confirmed it comes back clean. If you were a witness to the #GilroyActiveShooter and have not yet talked to police, please call 408-846-0583. You can also go the Gilroy Police Department right now and give your statement to an officer. Please only direct witnesses who saw something. – Gilroy Police (@GilroyPD) July 29, 2019 Gilroy Garlic Festival Mass Shooting Leaves 4 Dead Including Gunman; Manhunt For Possible 2nd Suspect Los Angeles Times A law enforcement source identified the suspect as Santino William Legan, 19.
