#1 believe when the facts come in we'll find he's a hard core lefty and that his weapons were purchased or modified illegally. This proves existing laws don't work so more laws wouldn't help.

If ISIS is to be believed they claim him as one of their own. I imagine if they did help him it was in the manner of getting the weapons in which case another lefty pillar or two collapses.

The left must control the narrative now (as they did in Ferguson and other areas before the facts proved them wrong) or else.

#2 Democratic congressman Seth Moulton, refusing to participate in the moment of silence for the Las Vegas victims on the House floor, tweets this perfect example of crisis exploitation: "Now is not a moment for silence; it's a time for action."

I wonder of the Good Congressman felt that way when an Islamic terrorist knifed a bunch of college students. Or when an illegal returns to the country after being exported only to rape/kill again. Those are times for introspection and not rushing to conclusions.
