James T. Hodgkinson of Belleville decided to shoot up a GOP congressional baseball practice Wednesday morning, hitting most notably Rep. Steve Scalise of Louisiana.
Quite an interesting background to the shooter indeed. Anti-republican. He belonged to a group named "Terminate the Republican Party" on Facebook and was very passionate about stopping Donald Trump. Bernie Sanders supporter, he was. A neighbor across the street from him said "this Democratic rhetoric made him snap. I know he was a pretty hardcore Democrat."
Pretty sad situation! These people are actually being influenced by Dem. rhetoric, especially pictures of a beheaded Donald Trump and a mockup assassination of our President as of recent.
