By now you all know about the horrific shooting that occurred at a King Sooper in Boulder. 10 people, including a police officer are dead, and several more injured.
The prevailing media narrative is that it was due to white supremacy and lax gun laws.
That narrative just got blown up. The Boulder PD has identified the suspected shooter. He is one Ahmad al-Issa also known as Ahmad Al Aliwi Alissa, a foreign national.
Prior to the announcement of the suspect’s name, there were calls for stricter gun laws.
As of this writing, the motive of al Issa is unclear. His brother described him as an anti-social paranoiac to the Daily Beast. That said, given the shooter’s name, we can’t at this point rule out some sort of radicalization or terrorism as a motive.
