So an immigrant US citizen of 28 years goes in and kills a bunch of new immigrants taking/practicing for their citizenship test after losing his job...

I wonder if he blamed the new arrivals for his job loss?

When I read about a U.S. citizen taking English classes after living in this country for 28 years, I find myself wondering if the guy knew that his prospects for employment were fading fast.

It's worth noting that this guy was something like 41 years old. So if he was living here for 28 years he arrived here when he was 13. And he still didn't speak English?

Something about this whole story seems odd.

Just speculating here but:

If he was 41 then he was born in 1968 in Vietnam. If his family fled towards the end of the war (1975) he was probably about 7. From personal experience, many refugees from Vietnam did not become citizens until 5 years after arrival (1980) which would come close to the timeline that he was a citizen for 28 years.

Unfortunately, Fox News had some “experts” that were talking about how the loss of a job could cause people to do this. I had to turn of Cavuto, I was getting so sick of it. Everyone is so quick to find excuses for horrific behavior.

This is awful for the victims and their families.

Ever notice how these types of things always rise when there is a Rat in the White House?

I was wondering the same.
