The Post‘s Robert Costa interviewed a man who says that he and Hodgkinson campaigned for Sanders in Iowa:
Charles Orear, 50, a restaurant manager from St. Louis, said in an interview Wednesday that he became friendly with James T.

Orear said Hodgkinson was a passionate progressive and showed no signs of violence or malice toward others.
Hodgkinson had reportedly moved to Alexandria recently.

Keep screaming “Trump is Hitler” on cable news every ten minutes, and eventually you will push some people over the left edge.
What it means is - this news and investigation gets one heavy run tonight on the evening news. The spin will be gun-control and “yet unknown” motive of the shooter.
then the story will quickly disappear from the news.
Just watch...
He was a great guy who, unfortunately, forgot to take his meds, that's all. Nothing to see here....
The hateful media had better start reflecting on their constant hate filled fake anti-Trump news - they are inciting violence, they are complicit.
The hard left is all nuts.
Permit ‘antifa’ nazis to terrorize people in the streets without charge of assault or riot and this is the outcome.
Antifa have long been on record calling President Bush, police, and FRerpers ‘fascists’.
They have no moral or intellecual superiority or honesty. The brand the politicial opposition as fair targets for violence. In a word they are despotic.
...and he was just beginning to turn his life around.
There are enough of the victims, at this point to bring a class action suit against the DNC-for sure!!
So Hillary and the DNC cheated Bernie of the nomination so they attack Trump?
Sounds logical to me.
A Rat from ILL annoyed. Looks like a Union moron. Well he chose to go to hell today where everyone suffers equally.
I contacted Time Warner at 1 (800) 892-4357 and say they are contributing to this violent atmosphere by sponsoring the Trump assassination play. Let’s start laying the blame on these leftists
ALL the left wing media needs to be completely shut down. Especially CNN, MSNBC, NY Times and Washington Post.
The leftist at these scum organizations need to be dealt with in the worst way possible..
Wonder what his DU username was?
Apparently he took his socialism seriously.
When you are a socialist, you kill people, it’s what you do.
I wonder what his t-shirt says after ‘Republican’.
The shooter Hodgkinson blamed the wrong persons. It was not the Republicans, but Hillary and the DNC who defeated Bernie - some believing that Bernie just might have defeated Trump and might be POTUS now if not for the Democrats blatant acts of fraud.
That Republican on his t shirt might be able to be track down to see what it says.
That's funny - I was thinking the exact same thing.
