Willington, CT — If it wasn’t a tragedy, the irony would make this story one hysterical joke. Just days after a politician endorsed by Moms Demand Action is forced to resign in shame after threatening to shoot innocent people , another anti-gun activist is making headlines for all the wrong reasons.
Peter Manfredonia, a student at the University of Connecticut is wanted for a deadly assault in Willington, CT and a murder in Derby, CT.
See the news story here: The search for a 23-year-old University of Connecticut senior suspected in two slayings and believed to be armed with several stolen guns stretched from Connecticut to New Jersey and Pennsylvania and continued on Monday, authorities said. Connecticut troopers said Peter Manfredonia, suspected in a deadly assault in Willington on Friday and a homicide in Derby, Connecticut, on Sunday morning is believed to be armed with several weapons stolen during a home invasion.
Not a great guy, from the sounds of things.
But Peter Manfredonia is more than just another nutcase. Another article said that Manfredonia was proudly against gun ownership.
On Manfredonia‘s Instagram account, there are pictures of his association with two organizations that arose from the Sandy Hook Elementary School shootings in December 2012.
August 15, 2019, he posted a picture of himself holding a cycling jersey and wrote “Proudly representing Sandy Hook Promise for the biking leg of my triathlon.”
The article goes on to say that Manfredonia lived on the same street as the Newtown, CT shooter, and his mom was a teacher for Newtown High School. In August, the alleged killer said that he was representing the Avielle Foundation — in memory of Sandy Hook victim Avielle Richman. He even said of Avielle’s mom, “I can’t thank her enough for embracing me the way she has and I’m excited to continue the effort of preventing violence and promoting compassion.”
Social Justice Warrior
Beto O’Rourke, who’s home town of El Paso was involved in the deadliest of the three, gave a speech during the event saying: “Any illusion that we have that progress is inevitable or that the change that we need is going to come of its own accord is shattered in moments like these. It is upon every single one of us [to incite change], there is no luxury in this democracy of sitting this one out.” BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE. Use words… not violence… (Reminder that this is NOT a partisan political address and gun violence should not be a partisan issue as it effects all of us).
The Hard Left Is Mentally Unwell
But police say all that changed when Peter Manfredonia cracked. He’s now wanted in a three state manhunt by the FBI for the killing of at least two people and the kidnapping of a third. He’s also stolen a car as well as two handguns and one shotgun from the homes of his first victim.
This isn’t the first time we’ve heard of the violent side of the anti-gun crowd. Besides “Dr. Rage” last week, there’s the story of the anti-gun activist who shot and killed her own children.
Now we have Manfredonia, another hard leftist. His facebook and Instagram pages are filled with worry about climate change, veganism, AOC, Bernie Sanders and how loving and kind everybody should be. Until one day, the mask slipped and his true ideology came out.
