HUFF POST: Patrick Crusius, who just turned 21, has been arrested as the shooter behind a Walmart massacre in El Paso, Texas, that has claimed at least 20 lives. He reportedly posted an anti-Mexican manifesto on 8chan just before his killing spree — just like two of the other angry-white-man killers of 2019. Pattern, anyone? How about we make it extremely hard to get their hands on WMDs? That way, no matter the ethnicity or religion or ideology of these killers, their death tolls shrink?
El Paso is one of the strongest places in the world—and if there were ever a moment to be strong, it's this one. Strong for one another, for the families who have lost somebody, and for the first responders. Please go to https://t.co/ecw9y18OSP to support our community. pic.twitter.com/FFgLPbXNIY
