Yes. The 20 year old was the son of a female sheriff’s deputy who had been with the Leon Sheriff’s dept for 18 years. He got a hold of one of her guns and it was found at the scene.

Take a look at this quote he gave FSU News back in January.

“I think it’s a little too late, he’s [Trump] already going to be inaugurated on Jan. 20 and there’s not really much you can do unless you outright revolt, and I don’t think anyone wants that.”

He was a poly-sci major. I really think he went to people watch and he’s not an anti-Trump person. The student groups that do these protests are entertaining.

For motive, it’s got to be something that’s much deeper.
