The suspect is believed to be Robert Card, a 20-year US Army veteran from Bowdoin Center, Maine.

(according to Telegrams so take with grain of salt)

EDIT: Name confirmed by news.

According to law enforcement, CARD recently reported mental health issues to include hearing voices and threats to shoot up the National Guard Base in Saco, ME.

Almost like you shouldn't let people with genocidal ideologies have guns

[-] Adkml@hexbear.net 24 points 9 months ago

Or people who have been convicted of domestic violence.

Or committed for saying voices in their head were telling them to shoot people.

All of which are true for this guy.

Everyone's "tough on crime" until we start talking about disarming as a punishment for being a criminal.

Give it five years and you'll see mass shooting be reclassified as a white collar crime, and therefore not even be punished because it somehow gets protected as "free speech".

Wtf you mean "will be reclassified," they magically somehow always take the shooter into alive if they're white and didn't 4chan themselves

The leftist version is "everyone is for prison abolition until they see a story like this."

If this guy shouldn't have guns, what's the mechanism for taking them away?

This is not the time to condemn genocide.
