I grew up in a deeply conservative environment, I was a bible-thumping conservative right up until I was around this person’s age when I started having friends coming back from Iraq in bags and pieces. I never could have remotely imagined doing something so violent and radical, but I also know that when you’re young, surrounded by people who seem disconnected from you, frustrated and you feel outnumbered, you can be influenced real easily to start feeling like you have some kind of power and “destiny” to make changes to the world.
edit: ya’ll sheltered motherfuckers really want to write your own narrative around this, you’re doing the exact same WWE theater spectacle the right is doing, back up a step and take a breath. You’re not going to get the story you want. You have to deal with that.

The dude was a groyper. Google it in conjunction with the killer’s name.
