It's the Eugene Simpson Memorial Park 400 block of Monroe Ave. about 16 mins east of where I am right now at work.

Any infos about the motives of the terrorist?

Apparently he asked if they were Reps or Dems before he shot, so apparently anti-Republican. Don't know if this claim is valid but it is being reported. Maybe he was leftist or anarchist, possibly a disgruntled vet if he was a middle aged guy with weapons training but that is just suspect profiling on my part. Will update if I hear more.

Rand Paul is saying if the CH Police weren't there it would have been a massacre. Great job CHP.

This is horrible.

Also, a general suggestion to everyone: don't immediately play politics with something like this.  We don't know anything about the shooter.  He might be a leftist, or he might be an anarchist.  For all we know, he's a Trump voter.  But no matter what he is, it doesn't matter--this is wrong.

Even though we don't know the motive, people on the left preemptively making the disingenuous argument that anarchists aren't leftists.

I won't argue it one way or the other, they can be both sides of the spectrum. Let's try to focus on the topic and not go back and forth on the side issues.
