Look who comes out to explain the motivations of the shooter away by claiming he had a “raw deal” when he was fired and so on...none other than this pro-jihadi politician :
NJ politician Bill Pascrell [who is known for his creative excusing of Jihadist terrorists groups]: https://www.investigativeproject.org/3546/islamist-fellow-traveler-rep-bill-pascrell
The NY Times states in the link below says that the shooter, Downing, was opposed the closing of the New York City office of the Bureau of Labor and Statistics and its move to an annex in Mountainside, N.J. which he claimed would be a waste of taxpayer’s money. [see https://www.nytimes.com/2015/08/23/nyregion/unraveling-of-gunman-began-long-before-killing-a-guard-and-himself-in-manhattan.html]
Wonder if Pascrell was behind that move ?
