Surprisingly little talk of this in local media compared with previous Seattle-area shootings. It seems people are become used to this.

This kid seems pretty fucked up. Almost enough to be an Atlas poster!

Like someone said in the comments, that might be in reference to country music.

I'm not sure I'd infer anything here.  His friends apparently described him as a "conservative" from ROTC.  He also voted a Republican ballot in the May presidential primary (that hasn't been reported in the media yet, but it's public record).  More than anything, his Twitter feed seems pretty incoherent, so I wouldn't read into it much.

He also has a history of minor-league history of domestic violence arrests and weird behavior toward women.  An ex-girlfriend apparently used to work at the Macy's where he opened fire, as well.  It seems like there's a good chance there were no higher principles involved in this.

Yeah, if the Republicans are going to make any hay it's going to be with more of their mental health rhetoric, without any mention of increasing funding of course, so it'll just be empty words.
