        And you don't think this is terror? Because he's white? IT IS TERROR. Call it out! Motive is irrelevant. It terrorized people.

        I'm getting tired of these shooting stories. Again a gun ends up in the hands of someone bent on destruction and death.

        And I bet if the @GOP or @NRA looked at his profile they would say he has the right to bear arms no matter his mental health difficulties

        So, now let's find those cracks in the system that allowed him to purchase and fix them. Don't over complicate with more laws, fix existing.

        @GovAbbott dances around the issue of gun control. Do we elect politicians to just know how to pivot. Prayers and action is what we need
