Hodgkinson had a piece of paper with the names of six members of Congress written on it, Slater said, but the note lacked any further context and there was no evidence from his computer, phone or other belongings that indicated he planned to target those officials. Slater declined to name the officials whose names were on the note or say whether they were Republicans or Democrats or were at the baseball practice. [More]Since he reportedly asked if they were Democrats or Republicans, does it matter? I'd think the fact that he wanted to kill anyone not "progressive" like him is even more chilling, because he was hardly alone in that sentiment, with plenty of encouragement.
