Yo, where do I go to report disinformation these days? The guy who wanted to start a government office to monitor disinformation is spreading disinformation:
Everyone is circling the wagons to celebrate this gay martyr!
This is all a lie!
He wasn't killed "simply for being gay."
The dude was a drug dealer and got into an argument over drugs with two men, one of whom was gay and likely had been in a gay relationship with Shepard.
The president and the media make it sound like two good ol' country Christian boys lynched him for being gay. It's ridiculous!
From The Guardian in 2013 (TEN YEARS AGO):
According to conventional wisdom, he met his killers by chance in a bar, told them he was gay and left with them when they appeared to respond to his advances. They started attacking him almost as soon as he climbed into their pickup.
It now appears, however, that the conventional wisdom may be wrong. A new book by investigative journalist Stephen Jimenez has challenged many of the central assumptions about Shepard's murder and argues that anti-gay hatred was not the primary motivation for his killing, if it was a factor at all.
Instead, Jimenez makes a persuasive case - based on interviews with the murderers, their former girlfriends, friends of Shepard's, and police investigators - that Shepard was already acquainted with his killers, Aaron McKinney and Russell Henderson. That acquaintance hardly casts Shepard in the best light.
Shepard and his attackers were all "involved in Laramie's crystal meth subculture, as users and dealers." It was also quite clear from testimonies that "McKinney and Shepard may also have had a casual sexual relationship."
"Shepard's sexual preference … certainly wasn't the motive in the homicide," Jimenez quotes police investigator Ben Fritzen as saying. "What it came down to really is drugs and money." A number of other sources close to the story and the protagonists confirmed much the same thing.
Details matter. Remember, these people spreading the narrative today are the people who wanted to ban you from society and social media if you dared suggest they were wrong about anything over the last three years. These are the people who say you peddle in disinformation!
As Jimenez reconstructs it, McKinney was coming down from a week-long meth binge and desperate to cover his mounting debts. He believed, rightly or wrongly, that Shepard could lead him to a delivery of about $10,000 worth of meth coming in from Denver, which he intended to steal. McKinney's plan was to beat the information out of Shepard, but the beating, fueled by severe drug-induced paranoia, ran quickly out of control.
He most definitely wasn't killed "simply because he was gay."
Instead, the Left used the meth head's death to push through a bunch of legislation and a narrative that America is evil and that we need to teach the kids how to be more gay.
Do you see how one lie can change a whole country? Look at what's happened over the past decade and a half! The most powerful man in the country, the woman who used to be the third most powerful person in the country, and Supreme Court justices are invoking this lie!!
The problem is, most of America still doesn't realize the lie.
Wake up, people! These people have been lying to you about everything for a long time and they're in the endgame now!
