I'm pretty sure the shooter wasn't targeting illegal migrants but was aiming to hit anything he could that was ICE. His family said he knew how to use the rifle in their home but wasn't a very good shot.
Last night, Gavin Newsome spent several minutes on the Stephen Colbert show denouncing/accusing/demonizing ICE. I wonder if the shooter watched that show?
". . .Republican politicians, meanwhile, are begging for the hateful rhetoric to be toned down.
“Violence is wrong,” Sen. Ted Cruz said at a Wednesday press conference in Dallas.
“Politically motivated violence is wrong.
“To every politician who is using rhetoric demonizing ICE and demonizing CBP [Customs and Border Protection], stop,” the GOP lawmaker said.
“To every politician demanding that ICE agents be doxxed, and calling for people to go after their families, stop.” . . ."
One migrant who was being transported to the facility was killed, and two others were wounded and in critical condition, according to the Department of Homeland Security.

I wonder if there are any leftists here at USMB, in congress, in the leftist media who will agree with Ted Cruz on that?
