El Paso shooter worried about Democratc gains in Texas.

Cites Democratic “pandering” to Hispanics in the debate, and Texas flipping to the Democrats because of the Hispanic vote, as justification for attacks, because it would make U.S. an effective one-party state.

El Paso shooter worried about Democratc gains in Texas. (Original Post) RandySF Aug 2019 OP
So their "logical" conclusion is to kill as many potential Democratic voters as possible. NBachers Aug 2019 #1

The media is trying to push the idea that the killer, or as they refer to him THE SHOOTER, nope sorry he's a killer, I digress, the media is attempting to spew the shit that the "shooter" had issues with both parties. The only disagreement the KILLER had with the Rebukes is that they weren't standing up to the Democrats. But hey, let's try to rub off some of the taint by saying he Hates both sides. So shabby, cheap, crass, callous, and utterly depraved.

And I'm afraid things might get worse before they get better.

but I don't think the solution is to shoot up a lot of people, even if I think they might be Republicans.

There is no logic to it. The killer drove from Dallas to El Paso to kill Hispanic immigrants. We have plenty of Hispanics, blacks, Asians right here in Dallas. He's just a hate-filled asshole.

Let's call these people what they actually are - fascists! And who's more responsible than Donald Trump and his inflammatory language?
