The police commended the deputy’s performance as exemplary in her role.
I would bet a lot of money that he is mentally ill. He was allegedly anti-Trump and anti-Israel. It doesn’t matter; I no longer care about the politics. I don’t care that he got hold of his mother’s gun. I am sorry for her. I am sorry for the families of the two kids he killed and the people he injured, and their families.
His mother didn’t tell him to do it. Biden didn’t tell him to shoot people, nor did Donald Trump.
Blame the killer. He’s evil and committed two murders and injured others. Just give him due process and imprison him.

“These people are usually pretty entertaining, usually not for good reasons,” Phoenix Ikner, a political science major, said. “I think it’s a little too late, he’s [Trump] already going to be inaugurated on Jan. 20 & there’s not really much you can do unless you outright revolt pic.twitter.com/of8xhcNs95

What goes in, comes out. What gets recorded, gets played back. Between fake news, social media, TDS and this satanic transgender nonsense. .people are losing their minds.
Step it up demented kiddies, not much time left in the school year to get your shootings in. Can’t handle reality so go on a shooting spree and spend years in jail being told what to do and not having to make anything of yourself. For those not wanting to be captured who shoot themselves, just stay home and shoot yourself instead of killing innocent people.
Shooters mom is an undisciplined morbidly obese cop that can’t even control her own weight and can’t control the guns in her house despite the fact she’s a cop. Obviously nor can she properly raise a son.
We have significant problems with the police in Florida. Their defective training and their equipment is paramilitary/police-state in nature and not suitable for civilian police.
It should not be a surprise that this was a cop’s son. I’m surprised it was not a cop.
Democrats have been telling their mentally ill followers that doing this gets you leftist paid bail and lawyers, a $900K home and sports car, and you’re treated like a living God with all the lefty women wanting to marry you.
“with all the lefty women wanting to marry you.” at least that will scare any sanes away.
