Scary dangerous. And it MAGA GOP that is causing the hatred and division. Biden is constantly trying to pull reps and Dems together. Whereas Trump always stirs hatred & division. Making Dems the enemy is dangerous & totally UNAMERICAN

It's called the cartels are pissed because promises were made and Dems are liars so the got their shit shot up as a warning to keep said promises. next time they might not be so lucky. OR its a scam to try and employ more bullshit gun laws. either way it wasnt caused by americans

I would hope the FBI as well.

'Police' are doing the investigating. Isn't that the main problem.
