NJ Councilwoman Eunice Dwumfour Fatally Shot Outside Her Home
New Jersey Councilwoman Eunice Dwumfour was gunned down outside her home late Wednesday, crashing her car after being repeatedly shot while behind the wheel, officials said.
Dwumfour, 30, was found dead in her white Nissan SUV after it crashed near the Camelot at La Mer apartment complex in Sayreville, NJ, ABC 7 News reported.
The Republican councilwoman was found with multiple gunshot wounds, and pronounced dead at the scene, officials told the outlet.
Some locals told RLS Media that the gunman was spotted racing off to the Garden State Parkway, which edges the complex. No other details were given on possible identifying details or a weapon.
Dwumfour — who also worked for a Nigerian-based church group — appeared to be the intended target, authorities told the outlet, stressing that there was no obvious motive.
Dwumfour had served the Borough of Sayreville since November 2021, when she ousted the sitting Democrat in a shock election win. She was not up for reelection until 2024.
Yeah...guess the GOP rhetoric is finally coming home to roost... for every one of these there's 10 Democrats that get visited with right-wing violence so let's be clear what side has the greater number of total fucking nut jobs... it's always been the conservatives and will always be the conservatives
@sunsporter1649 ? Adding guns doesn't t add shootings? It's a fact. Interactions with law enforcement add violence and deaths. Reliably. Just like the guns reliably add shootings and the cars reliably add crashes. By design
@sunsporter1649 baseless!?...do you read?... you just have one of your fake election crybabies get arrested for trying to kill MULTIPLE dems... oh correction he hired someone to do it because like a true conservative he talks a big game but in reality has zero balls... kind of like the Christians who don't have the balls to Martyr themselves but have no problem going into a voting booth and taking away other people's rights...pussies
@sunsporter1649 asks [quote]You have any more baseless claims....[/quote]
Actually, I have a solid statistical basis for @Rizzle420 's claims.
[quote]Fatalities resulting from attacks by far right wing violent extremists have exceeded those caused by radical Islamist violent extremists in 10 of the 15 years, and were the same in 3 of the years since September 12, 2001. Of the 85 violent extremist incidents that resulted in death since September 12, 2001, far right wing violent extremist groups were responsible for 62 (73 percent) while radical Islamist violent extremists were responsible for 23 (27 percent).[/quote]
And when we move beyond mass shootings, hate crime stats are dominated by hate crimes committed by right-wing extremists: [quote]In November 2018, the Federal Bureau of Investigation released its annual hate crime incident report, which found that in 2017, hate crimes increased by approximately 17 percent, including a 23-percent increase in religion-based hate crimes, an 18-percent increase in race-based crimes, and a 5-percent increase in crimes directed against LGBT individuals. The total number of reported hate crimes rose for the third consecutive year. The previous year's report found that in 2016, hate crimes increased by almost 5 percent, including a 19-percent rise in hate crimes against American Muslims; additionally, of the hate crimes motivated by religious bias in 2016, 53 percent were anti-Semitic. Similarly, the report analyzing 2015 data found that hate crimes increased by 6 percent that year. Much of the 2015 increase came from a 66-percent rise in attacks on American Muslims and a 9-percent rise in attacks on American Jews. In all three reports, race-based crimes were most numerous, and those crimes most often targeted African Americans.[/quote]
And that's why Trump's own FBI director said that the greatest domestic terrorist threat today is white supremacists. https://www.statesman.com/story/news/politics/elections/2020/10/09/fact-check-did-fbi-director-warn-about-white-supremacist-violence/114251512/
