11. The same Gov who previously revealed his motivation to "other" the shooter?

So surprise surprise he now says he has evidence of the conclusion he assumed from the start when he had zero information.

Even if Cox is correct, it may not "other" the shooter as much as he hopes. The shooter was raised in a RW environment, where there is a constant drumbeat of using violence/force to "solve" political disagreement. And he was raised as a gunhumper. That is Cox's community, and the shooters actions are the fruit of that garden.

Also, fwiw, Kirk and Fuentes and Trump all have "very different ideologies" from each other too. So what does having a different ideology do for Cox, huh?
