Canadian Visitor, Trump was blamed because the El Paso shooter's manifesto was more in alignment with Trump than open border Democrats. You forget that under Obama, black wealth, home ownership rates, and employment decreased more than those of whites and that racial relations measurably decreased as measured by polls. Sometimes, out of despair, people do violent things. The El Paso shooter's manifesto mentioned his dashed hopes and despair. Its probably a good guess that people floundering in poverty also suffer from dashed hopes and despair. Also, the El Paso shooter was characterizes as being pro Trump but the same press has not come down on the Dayton shooter because of his Democratic proclivities. Chicago and Illinois are run by Democrats whose educational, health policies and establish gun control policies there. I see a leadership and philosophic failure that is being ignored. Regarding gun homicides, Detroit, Baltimore, and East St. Louis are worse. Washington. D.C. with its Democratic voting base has a higher gun homicide than any state.
I'm thinking that the El Paso and Dayton shooters had loose screws. The full enforcement of murder law should be applied to them anyway. Not enforcing laws leads to problems whether murder laws or immigration laws. The Prince in Romeo and Juliet blamed himself for not being firm enough and thereby contributing to consequent tragedies.
