It appears to have been done by a Republican too., which leads me to suspect that it’s one of the folks trying to start a race war.

Apparently there are people who register as Republican just so they can vote in the Republican primary since Democrats never win there. So this fact alone doesn’t really give much clue about motive.

I’m going to withhold judgement at this time; there’s a real chance that the motive was something like trying to start a race war. We’ll probably know more an a day or so.

White guy shooting white political figure to start a race war? How does that figure?

Not really. Just aim for center mass and get the job done properly. They’ve seen too many movies.

Maybe he was just a terrible shot and that was him aiming for center mass
