This so much. Regardless of the shooter, in this case, the violent rhetoric has got to be dialed down.
There has to be ramifications to violent speech. Stop giving platforms to Ann Coulter and her "kill a liberal" speeches and books. Stop with the "second amendment remedies" as acceptable rhetoric. Stop with all of it. It's not all right to solve a disagreement with violence and/or threats of violence.
