The latest mass shooting comes amid a rise in gun violence and anti-LGBT+ sentiments from the Republican party
"The 22-year-old man accused of murdering five and wounding dozens more in a mass shooting in a Colorado gay nightclub is the grandson of a GOP lawmaker who celebrated the January 6 attack on the US Capitol."
The way the shooter had his previous case buried suggests some nefarious influence peddling with the result that the shooter was able to buy a gun (when he shouldn't have been able to) and commit the atrocity. If it can be proven (now that the Feds are supposedly involved), the victims and families may be able to sue the grandfather and maybe the police.
If only.
