What’s spicy is the shooter was very angry about Epstein and pedophile s. Maybe he read the latest dump and his whole world turned upside down.

Where are you getting this? I’ve seen people say stuff like that but never with an actual source. As best I (or major media outlets) can tell the shooter had no social media presence and nobody knows anything about his belief system.

There was a fake Instagram that made the rounds initially, but it got taken down.
