Right-winger assassinates two politicians, wounds two more, planned to kill several more. That’s the actual headline.
From a different article:
I haven't read whether they pursued him after that, but that is absolutely wild.
And especially since they were on high alert that someone was impersonating a cop... How do you not find that suspicious?!
It takes half a year to become a cop in Minnesota. That's the answer to most of this shit.
