Law enforcement officials identified the suspect as 21-year-old Patrick Crusius of Allen, Texas. Police believe the suspect may have been armed with a rifle.


Photos show him entering with weapon, the police said what kind of weapon and local news says MAY have been armed.

and social media which gets out of hand because liberals won't allow regulation...... and of course we need more god and less abortion to bring back morality. without gods there's no limits etc and less or no regard for life..... and then there's atheism..... and the left is totally tolerant so they have no limits - and so on

those are many of the many excuses 1500 radio stations will sell for as long as it takes to keep republicans from doing anything. the dittohead trump base will pick and choose the best rationalization for them to scream bloody murder at any republican pol who is named as someone who might join democrats and pass gun reform.

260 of the loudest of those radio stations headline limbaugh and would lose many of their advertisers if the 88 major universities that broadcast sports on them started looking for apolitical alternatives

Military veterans have the VA, GI bill, and other benefits. Regular people get shot with military weapons while shopping or going to school or just living life and didn't sign up for this.
