Greenleaf,
what occurred was unconscionable. Yet, it must be taken in context of the many events that the mainstream media have not covered. Free speech rallies have been violently attacked across the country, but only covered by independent journalists. Yes, as a result, people come prepared to defend themselves. Preparedness is not violence nor advocating violence. We will be waiting for the investigation into the murder committed, but the fact the individual's Army enlistment was terminated within four months tells me many things. Likely, he was incompatible with military service. This often results when enlistees make racist statements. They rarely try to correct such false beliefs, preferring to dump the idiot out of the military.
