So I guess he was a crazed Democrat after all.
Thanks for clearing that up, Atlantic!
One possibility is that he’s a liberal acting on the violent rhetoric of liberals saying all conservatives need to die, the evil fascists need to be fought, etc.
Like the Scalise shooter.
Like Gaby Gifford’s shooter, targeting her for not being liberal enough.
Doing what Antifa and CNN say should be done.
2. There was nothing random about the attack.
3. If we're lucky, this won't all be swept under the rug for political purposes (which is likely to happen if his motive involved Islam, homosexuality, or some aspect of leftist politics).
WHY!?
People who do these things always have a motive. Even if it is stupid or doesn't make any sense.
Like his neighbors cut down his favorite elm tree in their yard or something.
What is the reason for this happening? They must know by now!
First mistake...
Thinking the Atlantic would clarify anything for the public.
Well I take that back. It certainly clarifies who they are as a paper.
Paper could be put to so much better use.
Charmin
Scott
Northern
Angelsoft
Cottonelle
Seventh Generation
And we all know minorities don't commit murders. /s
Agreed. His brother is an idiot. There was a reason. Dig for it. It is there, and I suspect it is in plain view.
Yep, if they do not refer to him as a right winger, or any political affiliation, that means he was a leftie.
“...though as a white man he shares a race and gender with many other perpetrators”.
Yeah, right.
The above is egregious, and typical of the flavor of the day. Almost de rigeur that he has to have a line like that in an Atlantic article.
But beyond that, this is a vacuous article.
They had to write something but had nothing to write about so he wrote inanities.
Nobody commenting on the fact that his girlfriend (and presumably he as well) were in the UAE last year.
“based on what little is known so far” we’re going to make any assumptions we want that fit our views...
Seriously, it’s been a day. Nobody knows nothing.
Fun to speculate, but silly for Atlantic to expect to make money speculating wildly.
If he was a muslim/ethnic middle-easterner, we’d be hearing the “muslim community fears backlash” stories right about now.
I believe you are correct. The article is kind of rambling, but what we really do know is:
Shooter determined he would kill people who were mostly white, likely consevative leaning and potentially mostly Republican.
It’s a liberal’s wet dream he acted out in rea life! Does anyone think that if any hard-core liberal thought it could get away with literally killing Republicans in droves that they wouldn’t do it?
This guy is a pilot with a couple of planes.
No steady job and lots of money.
Whatever the reason is I guarantee you it doesn’t make the Democrats look good and it doesn’t make the Republicans, Trump, or the NRA look bad.
So this is how they cover it up??? We can’t figure out who he was? I don’t believe them.
One thing Alex Jones reported yesterday, is he heard from a law enforcement person investigating at the hotel room, and this person reported to Alex Jones that they found ANTIFA propaganda all over the hotel room.
I know, it’s Alex Jones, but it’s going to be hard to get corroboration if the media is going to double down on this narrative of not being able to figure out who this shooter was.
ANTIFA has already declared war on traditional America. I hope the truth eventually comes out before more Americans die because so much sedition is going on in this country.

And I think law enforcement has a pretty good understanding of his motive, but has not or does not want to tell us. So it's political.
