Investigators are examining a screed believed to have been posted online by the suspect in Saturday's fatal shooting at a Texas shopping mall an hour before the attack, senior law enforcement officials say.

Investigators are “reasonably confident” that the suspect, identified by police as Patrick Wood Crusius, 21, of Texas, posted the diatribe on the extremist online forum 8chan before the shooting.

Terrorism experts warn that nothing should be taken at face value in the propaganda material left behind by hate crime suspects, which aim to provide fodder for social media pickup and mainstream media coverage.

The screed posted to the anonymous extremist message board railed against immigrants in Texas and pushed talking points about preserving European identity in America.

I read it. If it is his, then he railed about more than immigration but, his being in agreement with the agenda of the progressive left wouldn’t further their narrative.

Aha! Finally! A straw to grasp at to justify tying this outrage to President Trump and, by extension, his supporters.

Just one question. 73 people have been shot in Chitcago so far this weekend. You gonna pin that on President Trump, too?

It will take a while to analyze any writing.

Look at his actions.

Occupy Democrats is claiming all sorts of links to Trump and white supremacists (and Christians) because of a supposed Twitter account.

If we are supposed to adjust our national policy to be the exact opposite of this week’s mass killer then maybe we should agree to trade an open border in return for pure capitalism and a constitutional amendment making universal health care and handouts to everyone totally impossible. Obviously we can’t let nut cases run our policy for the country. I want the damn border controlled and I can’t give that up because kooks like this commit shootings.

"The FBI...

STOP RIGHT THERE. This is the SAME agency who committed TREASON in their ATTEMPTED COUP ON OUR DULY-ELECTED PRESIDENT.

If they'll commit TREASON against a sitting president, THEY'LL TRY ANYTHING ELSE.

That is very eerie. The picture on the right doesn’t look much like other pics of the Dayton shooter, though.

Is there a Dork Eyeglasses Frame section at the Walmart Optometrist?

I’ll bet all three of those Murderous Losers ever touched a Girl’s fun parts in their entire miserable lives.
