So sad 😪💙❤X

This is so sad .

I am glad that the murderer died...I hope he suffered horribly!

They always mentally ill. Smh. RIP 🕊

Awful news, my condolences to his family and friends, it’s a sad world we’re living in.

Instant karma for the killer!

What's the story here then BBC? expand it a bit. Do what you're paid for.

Tragic! We live a short distance from this quiet spot. It’s unbelievable that such an extraordinary and talented mans life has been snatched by being shot and by a neighbour. My heart goes out to his family and friends. R.I.P James Nash. 🌹

R.I.P. James Nash🙏🙏😢🧚‍♀️

This is why GUNS are banned and heavily restricted. James might have lived if a GUN wasn't involved. How the HELL was the crazy guy allowed a GUN? This isn't the USA, how did this happen?

Not surprised given he was shot in the head with a shotgun.

Unhinged fanatical Nazi? As opposed to sensible fanatical Nazi..all this antisemitism and racist accusations are at boiling point and its going to backfire big time..ordinary people are getting sick of it and feel afraid they're the next target.

RIP 😔

The actual fuck?!

That’s horrible. A man of god gunned down by a beast

This is due to his misunderstanding of my version of reality/nature. He got in my way, he paid the ultimate price.... a life in eternal hell, via a bullet. Check my Facebook page for the full version of my visualization on how life should be treated.

Terrible

Was he registered gun license holder - who checks these people? Where do you get hold of guns - asking for a fren 🐸

I u

pamela_cafc Oh My

What the hell?

Omg

So sad and awful

Are there more shootings happening, or is this a bbc cherry pick job? Was it an illegal gun? Why are there so many news stories of shootings now, there never used to be. We dont want guns in the uk like america.

Shocking this ☹️

So sad.

Andover is one of the most violent towns in Hampshire I used to live there over the years it’s got a lot worse

Horrific incident, condolences to the Nash family especially Dr. Sarah Nash his wife who's recovering in hospital. James Nash seemed like a very talented, intelligent & creative individual who accomplished a lot in his short life. A timeline of events:

R.I.P James Nash

Wonder what James found out.

Shocked and deeply saddened to read this. Thoughts are with his poor family, friends and all involved in trying so hard to save him.

Probably something to do with drugs

Don’t know who this guy was but RIP

This is so sad.

rest in peace💔💔

but guns are banned guys, how could this happen

What!!!!?!!!? Why shoot him!!!!!!?

Sounds fishy.

Why would a PARISH COUNCILLOR and CHILDREN’S AUTHOR be a target of a shooting? What was he up to?

Thoughts are with the families involved, the emergency services and his Council colleagues and the local Enham community at this difficult time.

Sad news...

As a fellow author, I extend my condolences to all James' family, friends, and colleagues who must suffer this loss.

Another good man killed by a psychopath who should have been sectioned a long time ago. No doubt 'lessons will be learned' by local Council/Govt. arseholes.

The victim of yet another senseless violent crime. Tragic loss. My deepest condolences to his family and loved ones.

That’s what happens when you got money

He liked Nazis stuff I'm guessing

It's absolutely horrendous. His poor family.

Oh lord this is horrible 😭

😔

This is the world we live in now. Become more and more like other nations with knife and gun crime. Makes you wonder what the point in life is anymore

Usual suspects. Where's the racists at?

Absolutely shocking. We should not follow Trump’s America. How do people get hold of guns? Worse than Class A drugs

American culture

Most Likely HE WAS A CONDEMNED SINNER WHO NEVER EVEN THOUGHT TO REPENT TO OUR FATHER THE CREATOR,MAKER OF THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH !!! JESUS IS THE WAY !!!!!! PEACE BE WITH YOU ALL 🙏🏿🙏🏻🙏🏼

How awful. RIP James

Do we know the motive.

Why would anyone want to shoot someone like him?

Hmmm.. BBC .. children's author ... shot dead.. ?! ... Prince Andrew tied to it somewhere ..

Was he doing something to impose change on the local community that no one voted for?.

Question everything from the media 🗣🗣🗣

So sad 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

So once again mental health services are totally fucking useless and this has led to the yet another pointless death. When is the government going to put money into mental health services? Ever? Or just keep watching people killing themselves or others?

pew pew

Wouldn't be surprised if the gunman was known to police country's a joke.

So sad 🥺

How is this not front page news Innocent man gunned down and then dies himself after being pursued by Police. What on earth is there out there at the minute that's a bigger news story?

Why are people just fucking assholes

The journalism here is bad.

Absolutely shocking, and I understand that the shooter was an unhinged fanatical Nazi. I myself have picked up a number of obsessed fans or stalkers who have threatened and followed me. It's shocking to all of us in the writing world.

😧😯

RIP James Nash. Such a waste of a good life.

How awful. Very sorry .

Oh so sorry to hear that....Rest In Peace

Why are the press trying to call the shooter a Nazi?
