The authorities said that Mr. Litton had suffered from mental health issues for decades. Based on writings they uncovered after the shooting, investigators said that he believed that he was an officer in a paramilitary organization tasked with performing child executions.
…
… Mr. Litton had a criminal history that dated back to his teenage years and included convictions for identity theft, forgery and petty theft, the authorities said. He had been incarcerated several times, though the authorities noted that none of his previous crimes were violent.
It’s not clear what Litton’s incarcerations accomplished. It’s not out of the question that his time inside caused or exacerbated his condition, leading to this shooting.

They whitewash fascism by blaming this on “mental health” and “homelessness”.
They’ll never talk about the deep racism throughout the injustice system. They won’t talk about the right-wing ideology. They won’t ever talk about the actual problems with pale skinned people. The capitalist media provides absolute cover for fascism, genocide, etc.
