    Odd. Right after one of the massacres, a new gun shop opened here called "The Arsenal".

    The "Arsenal"? That's telling it like it is E! Maybe it is a franchise and such shops will crop up in all red-state cities where trump loomed large in 2016. Getting ready for the big showdown 2020 no doubt. Truth in advertising for a change. Refreshing. Scary as he** but then truth often is. Thank you for your reply and Happy Thursday to y! :)

    I made a mistake. Its name is "Towers Armory" and it's real.They have a range and all the latest military automatic weapons for you to try out. They are not for sale, of course...just for fun. (Yeah, right) They recently had a break-in and robbery...and a fire.

    Aren't they the same E? I mean they both stockpile weapons that kill people. It looks very imposing impressive important. Imagine that a franchise all over the country? I know there are big bucks to be made in a McDonald's franchise but a weapons franchise could be ever more bucksier! Thank you for your reply E and Happy Thursday! :)

    Crossed assault rifles too, on those pseudo-military badges. Battlefield weapons.

    Are the murders and racist rants related?

    Probably not directly, except in a few people.

    I think instead the events encourage those with the sort of dark, twisted mind that embraces either violence or racism.  The link is that character flaw, not the events as such.
