What is up with people rushing to blame republicans or democrats? This is the act of a mentally unstable individual who needs to be brought to justice.
A lot are just trolls trolling to get a rise out of others. DO NOT feed the trolls.
All of you commenting it’s one party or another’s fault are no better than the problem.
💯
People are in here blaming dems and Repubs like this story means anything yet. You can test positive for explosives because of recently used hand soap. Let the ATF and Police do their jobs and worry about your party's narrative later
