We now know the cause of GOP/NRA-fueled right-wing domestic terrorist attacks. They seem to be connected through some bizarre mental gymnastics to immigration:
"El Paso shooting: Trump demands immigration reform in wake of domestic terror attack – while admitting better gun controls needed." (The Independent)
But wait! Immigration does not contribute to mass shootings. Hearts without Pikkiwoki are the problem (whatever that means). "NRA Board Member Ken Blackwell Blames Mass Shootings on “Hearts Without God”"

Update. Turns out, the ventricle occupied by Pikkiwoki does not motivate shooters; it's all about the lack of wishful thinking.

Dont give up on the Pikkiwoki hypothesis just yet: "Right-wing commentator: Liberals orchestrated shootings to ‘take away your ability to worship God’"

Someone suggested that there weren't enough shooters at a recent massacre. I'm not sure how adding more shooters to the mix is going to end the carnage, but hey, Ricky is a smart guy, so let's turn Walmart into a war zone and see what happens. "‘Soft targets’: Rick Santorum suggests unarmed Walmart shoppers were at fault in mass shooting"

It goes without saying that it's all Obama's fault. Thanks, Obama.
"Ohio politician blames mass shootings on 'drag queen advocates', Obama, open borders"

And then there is the old "mental illness" trope used by those who have no idea of what they are talking about:
"Trump calls for mental health reform after shootings — but his policies threaten coverage"
These important "thinkers" have assured us that easy access to guns have nothing to do with mass murderers, and I believe them. After all, they have no reason to lie to us, do they?
Do they?
