I agree about "Occam's Razor" and the main root cause of all of this is deeply embedded racism, and the fear of "others."

However, tRump does everything he can to amp that up and what would prevent him from using this kind of weapon?

If only on his Boogaloo Bois and Proud Bois, the ones that really did damage.


Wouldn't it explain military and police who had reasons to obey the law going rogue?


People have had this racism and fear of others since we began, but civilization especially a Democratic one has so much to discourage the worst behavior. But all it takes in a mob is a set of leaders that break the ice on the conventions and that is why inciting others to violence is against the law.

BUT what if he could do it without getting caught?
