      “Politically motivated“?
      What, exactly, is the motivation?

        Both were Democrats, they found a list of targets in his vehicle. I'd bet good money there were no GOP reps on it.

            I didn’t realize state politics could be so spicy. I mean sure among those who work in it but most people sort of ignore it.

                The suspect is a Tim Walz appointee, and was apparently carrying No King flyers. So it seems likely the guy is probably an extreme left whacko or an extreme right whacko.

                    The discussions all over the internet about whether this guy was just crazy, or motivated by inflammatory rhetoric, will be as fascinating and productive as always.

                    Education is extremely important.

                      Crazy world we're living if it's all the same.
