Important new information has emerged since the mass shooting incident in Kraków, Poland’s historic main square where six were and a killed more were injured.
While government officials and media rushed to declare that the killer, 24-year-old Michał Oksiński, is a Catholic member of the “far right,” the opposite has now been shown.
While his precise motives for Oksiński’s deadly rampage may never be certain after he died from police gunshot wounds in hospital, it is clear that Oksiński had links to various far-left causes. He was been pictured posing with an LGBTQ+ rainbow "pride" flag while dressed in military garb, and wearing leftist symbols.
Later reports have suggested that he may have been “trans.”
Other photos posted to social media show Oksiński marching with left-wing demonstrators carrying banners that say “Refugees Welcome” and “Without states, borders without.”
According to one report, Prime Minister Donald Tusk’s government ordered the immediate deletion of the gunman’s Facebook account in order to destroy evidence that contradicts the government’s unsubstantiated claims that Oksiński was a right-wing nationalist.
