Update to the CNN story:
Quote:
Two law enforcement sources told CNN the shooter, who is in police custody, has been taken to a hospital.

His survival will be very important to the investigation.

Yes. Instead of placing the blame where it belongs, too easy access to firearms, even by the mentally unstable, Donny Jr. blames art! Unbelievable. Can't wait for his idiot daddy's comments coming up.

The man suspected of firing dozens of rounds into an Alexandria baseball field Wednesday morning has been identified by federal law enforcement officials as James T. Hodgkinson, 66, of Belleville, Ill.
A Facebook page belonging to a person with the same name includes pictures of the Democratic presidential candidate, Bernie Sanders, and rhetoric against President Trump, including a post that reads: “Trump is a Traitor. Trump Has Destroyed Our Democracy. It’s Time to Destroy Trump & Co.”
https://www.washingtonpost.com/local...88f_story.html
Your President, his surrogates, his party and his captive news organizations (Fox News, Breitbart, InfoWars, NewsMax) have fostered a climate of fear and outrage, unlimited access to guns (including to the mentally ill and suspected terrorists), and Second Amendment solutions to political disagreements and are now outraged at the results of said policies??? Cry me a fucking river, Whell.
If you had a shred of intellectual honesty, you'd say "This is just the cost of doing business in the kind of America my party helped create." MAGA indeed.

Looks like the shooter was a lefty wingnut. A March 22 post on Facebook:
Trump is a Traitor. Trump Has Destroyed Our Democracy. It's Time to Destroy Trump & Co.

See Finn? The issue isn't guns. The issue is liberals with guns.

How about these comments from the link you provided? The word 'begat' applies or is it "reap what you sow"?
