Really? A motive has not been established? I wonder how many Christians will publicly denounce his actions but secretly condone them? I'm guessing lots. I know the secrets they hide behind their phony facade of self-righteousness.
I used to be one, after all. Right up until I reached the age of reason. This story highlights just one small sliver of the damage done when millions of people refuse to wake up, admit that the ultimate Santa Claus doesn't exist, and start thinking for themselves.
And just a side note, since the fear machine has us all worked up about ISIS. Americans kill way more Americans than anyone else. A lot more. Orders of magnitude. We are already over 12,000 killed by gun violence so far this year alone. That's more than 9/11 (3000) and both the Iraq and Afghanistan wars (6800) combined, in 11 months this year. Since 1999, 464,000 Americans have died in firearms-related deaths. If you total up gun deaths in the US from 1968, the deaths total more than all Americans killed in all the wars we have fought.
So, apparently blue vs blue is ok, as long as you have some scary spectre to keep Americans distracted from the problems in their own back yard. Guess it's god, fear, mindless consumerism, and booze. Those four keep enough of the populace distracted so that those in power never, ever, have to address any issues.
