Cooper (and some others in the gay community) can’t process that a gay was shooting up gays, so she’s looking for someone to blame - republicans, straights, guns, women, Christians, Jews, men, anything but gays and muslims and certainly not in combination.
You and I both know that they wish it was a conservative Christian man that went in there and did that because it would perfectly fulfill their narrative. It would be bonus if the guy was wearing a Trump hat too.
