Before Bowers’ social media accounts were deleted, movie director Robby Starbuck managed to screengrab several Gab posts showing the suspected shooter’s hatred of Jews and President Donald Trump. (RELATED: Trump Reacts To ‘Devastating’ Pittsburgh Synagogue Shooting)
“This monster is an unhinged anti-Semitic terrorist,” Starbuck tweeted.

Being very clear for media picking this up, this man Robert Bowers was named on police scanner, found his profile, last post was this and his social media account was wiped while I was archiving it. His account was anti-Semitic conspiracies and anti-Trump posts/conspiracies. pic.twitter.com/uRNfWAEWLW

Another post from Pittsburgh Synagogue shooter Robert Bowers. His profile clearly illustrates that he’s a Nazi, admired Hitler, hates Trump, believes Trump is controlled by Jews, he did not vote for Trump. That’s all I was able to archive before his profile was wiped. Sickening. pic.twitter.com/DPQfGuWDzY

Robert Bowers, the Pittsburgh shooting suspect named on the police scanner, has a GAB posting history of deranged anti-Semitic conspiracy. Two days ago he claimed Trump was controlled by Jews, this morning he posted “Screw your optics, I’m going in”…absolutely chilling https://t.co/lsm0P0Y7tl

The shooting took place at the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh’s Squirrel Hill neighborhood, a predominately Jewish area close to downtown Pittsburgh, according to Fox News.
Bowers yelled “All Jews must die!” KDKA reported, and he was reportedly armed with two pistols and an AK-47.
An archive of Bowers’ disturbing posts on Gab, which has since lost its hosting provider, can be found here.
