Trying to regain control of the narrative and pin it on the “alt-right.” How do they know his FaceBook page when he’s thus far unidentified, though? Just one of those minor details.
The man shot was widely reported to be a racist. He attacked an Asian man, so he was de facto racist by the MSM standard. What’s the problem, was he in fact an anti-Milo agitator?
That would make sense, but they’re going to have a tough time walking it back. Hence this smear.

The Seattle Times implies that the shooter’s defense is that the ‘victim’ is a ‘racist’. Who but a SJW would use, “but he is a racist” as an excuse to shoot someone.
