The perp was clearly sent over the edge by Trump's support for Nazis.

Did I miss the “13” in the article? I saw one dead and 20 injured in the text.

Just checked and nether the BBC website nor the Deutsch Welle website appear to be giving figures.

Daily Mail says at least 13 dead. The “mental illness” of islam continues to spread its joys without regard for national borders or the colour or nationality of the victims.

Must be Wiccans.

Media is demanding Trump condemn Nazis behind the attack.

GOP denouncing President for rushing to conclusions.

It was just “vacation violence.”

The video I saw (apparently not viewed ahead of time) by CBS News showed at least 5 dead. Really surprised they showed it, CBS apologized after it was shown.

I think Fox got the same video, but Shep said they were blocking it (cleaning it up) before they show it.
