    What would surprise me would be seeing this acknowledged in the Washington ComPost or New York Times. Hell, I'd settle for the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

    Politics almost never has anything to do with mass shootings, so it's pointless to stroke one's self over not being registered to a political party while doing so.

    27 deadliest mass shootings in US history

    The only one obviously politically motiviated was Mark Essex, a black Navy vet who killed 10 cops and 9 civilians in New Orleans and who's apartment was covered with anti-white graffiti.

    How can you cite that CNN article to prove a point that multiple shootings are rarely politically motivated? It doesn't give enough information either way in the synopses of the shootings.
