1. I think we are all assuming the shooter is Reich-Wing, but

what if we are wrong?

Curious if the victims had any strong positions that would seriously piss off a demented "left" winger. Like I/P topics perhaps? Doesn't make sense to target state officials for that, unless they had taken stands about how I/P related activists should be handled.

I did a google news search on the manifesto and all I could find is that it contained a list of names but the police are withholding further info about motive. One source also quotes the police saying the list contained "quite a few" names. If we knew they are all D's (we DON'T know, yet), that would put a big hole in any other theory than RWNJ targeting D's.

My money is still on reich-wing, just exploring the possibility your post raises.
