        . If the national news agencies tweeted every shooting in the US there wouldn't be any room for the rest of us.

        News agencies pick and choose which shootings to report in order to fit whatever narrative they want. The competition is between narratives.

        No matter you need to remember 2 men trying to protect others were shot. Thoughts and prayers.

        Well said Brian. Nice to hear a voice of reason amidst usual speculation & comment without evidence at this stage.

        Thank you Sir. We too often forget the victim and get caught up in the sensation of the event.

        Wouldn't ISIS want the far right to rise? Surely it helps their mantra?

        Mantra perhaps not the right word there, but surely they feel more justified if they get backlash? Easier to recruit and radicalise, no?
