4. This is very on brand LDS

And there is nothing wrong with them doing this. They will 100% take care of the living victims and their families, and they also feel like the shooter's family members are also victims and need love and support.

I have major issues with Mormons and personally consider them a cult, but they believe in taking care of their neighbors and those in need. My best friend in high school was LDS, and my boss is technically Exmormon, but her family thinks she's more of a Jack Mormon. Her family is always doing stuff like this, including testifying FOR a man who mugged her BIL a few years ago. Her BIL asked for the man to receive help instead of a harsh sentence, and they helped out his wife and kids after he was incarcerated,
