The 27-year-old man who police say shot and killed a California business owner over a Pride flag draped in her store appears to have had a yearslong history of posting disturbing — and often violent — anti-LGBTQ messages on social media.

The suspect, Travis Ikeguchi, gunned down Laura Ann Carleton, 66, on Friday, after confronting her and “yelling many homophobic slurs” over her clothing store’s Pride flag, San Bernardino County Sheriff Shannon Dicus said at a news conference Monday. Shortly after fleeing the store, Mag.Pi, Ikeguchi was killed in a shootout with law enforcement.

    There was never any justification to label Trump supporters mentally ill in the first place. Just because ther beliefs are incomprehensible to you does not make them or anyone else mentally ill. Your mindset is not the objective standard for normal or healthy. Stop being so arrogant.

    Stop labeling people who think differently than you mentally ill.

    Especially evil people like them.
