What I have feared in the USA, based on the highly polarized political

including an innocent 9 year old girl, is NOT what America wants to be
known for.
The divisive political rhetoric can so easily trip an off-balance
person to do horrific things - and put many otherwise functional
people off-balance - making these occurrences more likely.

In this case the perp was captured alive so there is a CHANCE what
causes this one to go off may be established - kinda hard to do when
they kill themselves or are gunned down by LEOs

Pray for the USA.

****, you guys have got a REALLY GREAT political system......and you
got Nukes too, truly frightening for the rest of the world....

Thanks for your concern.

I don't know how many of the group were around when John
Kennedy got shot in Dallas [Friday 22 Nov 1963], but the
same sound bites were pumped out then,the same panaceas
[mean looking gun & high capacity magazine bans] proposed,
the same calls for restrictions on political "hate" speech
made, and the same media crocodile tears shed.

Look for another Warren Commission to conclude he was a lone
gunman and acted alone. Also look for an assassination
[attempt] while he is in custody, ala Lee Harvey Oswald.
