Cornett’s housemates also told detectives that he was “kind of obsessed” with cable news stories about undocumented immigrants entering the United States.
Gee, I wonder what network he was watching.
he was ‘pissed’ about undocumented migrants receiving welfare funds, phones and health insurance
sigh
he fantasized about flying an Apache helicopter gunship to the border and firing on undocumented migrants traveling into the United States in order ‘to deter’ other undocumented migrants from attempting to cross the border.
I have no words.
- At what point do we start to hold networks accountable for reporting blatant lies nonstop to get people riled up.(I realize it becomes a slippery slope when in the wrong hands)
  I was hopefully thinking with the dominion case, but it doesn't seem to have done alot.

- He wouldn't be fully erect during the helicopter revery

How are these idiots now realising the irony of this?
You were founded by undocumented immigrants, most of you are from a lineage of undocumented immigrants
- The whole point is to once again divide us all, make US kill each other, and not the rich. Though After this there will be ALOT of people from both sides who have so much to fucking answer for.
- Completely agree, but there's this hard-on people have with bringing up the terrible shit that America specifically has done/has happened in the past at every possible chance.
  To be clear, it did happen and it was atrocious, but there's a time and place when it's relevant.
...because that would be a reasonable reason to shoot an other human being..
The stochastic terrorism is working.
Probably be pardoned before sentencing and asked to fulfill his helicopter fantasy at this rate
What a great and lovely society I inhabit.
A Fox News watching Conservative HUNTING Immigrants? They MUST be a Democrat!
I'm glad that it sounds like the victims survived. At least for now. Injuries like those can be devastating
I'm shocked.
