I wrote this to stress that there should be extreme pressure to stop all gun violence, and a culture that accepts it will only lead to more.
Keep in mind that white American males shot and killed countless Americans including many children, and no one ever did a thing but protect their right to do it again.

In case you thought you were safe bc you aren't one of his currently identified enemies to kidnap and deport, take a look at this line:

"and remove anyone who is not a net asset to the United States, or is incapable of loving our Country..."

No one is safe when a bully is in charge.

It may be premature to treat this as traditional terrorism.

It sounds like this guy was one of the people everyone involved in Afghanistan said should be protected, bc going back would be a death sentence.

Also note his aptitudes would come from Special Forces/CIA.
With DC shooter now identified as an Afghan national not the antifa secret agent White House hoped for a good time to remember the Trump admin has gutted domestic anti-terrorism capacity and reassigned many to finding grandmothers to arrest at immigration hearings.

Keep in mind one of most important points of leverage is intel sharing.
