I don't understand why he is still alive. His justice should have been served up in a hail of bullets on the spot.

The father of the 21-year-old man arrested for the El Paso shooting massacre was a drug addict for almost 40 years and is now an energy healer who claims to have had visions of Jesus Christ and his dead grandmother, DailyMail.com can reveal.

Patrick Crusius allegedly killed at least 20 people and injured 26 on a gun rampage which began in a Walmart parking lot in El Paso, Texas on Saturday morning before he was arrested by police.

His father, Bryan Crusius, 63, revealed in a 2014 memoir details of the broken home his son grew up in, confessing to decades of drug and alcohol abuse that led to the breakup of both his first marriage and his 18-year relationship with the alleged shooter’s mother.

Bryan Crusius had a history of drug addition and is now a counselor. He had been married multiple times.

Bryan Crusius had a history of drug addition and is now a counselor. He had been married multiple times.

Sadly, the shooter's mother is likely to have been a recreational chemical addict. IF that was the case, the shooter (he was caught in the act and I live half a continent away, won't be considered for jury service in his trial, so I'm not using "alleged") had little or contradictory moral instruction, and had lots of time on his hands to wander into places like Stormfront that attract angry and resentful people.

PSs are almost-everything-is-OK and teach kids that they are the highest animal evolved so far and that innocent human life is disposable at some times when that life is inconvenient.

This country has been sowing this for some 6 decades, and I fear we are early in the reaping.

EL PASO, Texas—Two more victims of the mass shooting at a crowded Walmart in El Paso, Texas, over the weekend died at a hospital on Aug. 5, raising the death toll for the attack to 22.

Dr. Stephen Flaherty said at a news conference that gunshot wounds of the patients treated at the Del Sol Medical Center have been “devastating and major.”

He said one patient who died at the hospital had major internal abdominal injuries affecting the liver, kidneys and intestines. That patient also received a “massive blood transfusion,” Flaherty said.

22 people have died.  :mad:

Patrick Crusius’ Family: 5 Fast Facts You Need to Know
https://heavy.com/news/2019/08/patrick-crusius-parents-family-dad-grandparents/

Quote
Patrick Cruisius‘ family broke their silence Monday with a statement saying they were “devastated by the events of El Paso and pray for the victims of this tragedy.”

Crusius was named as the suspect in a shooting that left 22 people dead and 24 injured at an El Paso, Texas Walmart Saturday morning. He is facing capital murder charges in Texas. The FBI is also conducting a domestic terrorism investigation, which could lead to federal hate crimes charges. As a part of the FBI investigation, agents are investigating a manifesto which was published on 8Chan shortly before the shooting. The screed, called “An Inconvenient Truth,” was filled with anti-immigration and racist rhetoric.

Crusius could face the death penalty in Texas, which prosecutors said they plan to pursue. He is being held without bail in El Paso, Texas.

Clearly a sick person. There are lot of vile stuff out there.
