It didn't take the New York Times and CNN to come up with a narrative

The New York Times, followed by CNN, are attempting to tie the El Paso shooting to anti-Hispanic hatred. We shall see what truth unfolds.

Horrible shooting in El Paso

The New York Times is now reporting that there are 20 dead and another 26 injured as a result of today's "Walmart massacre" in El Paso, Texas.

Law enforcement officials are studying an anti-immigrant manifesto to determine whether it was written by the gunman, according to a local law enforcement official who has been briefed on the investigation. Given the manifesto’s racially extremist views, it could make the killings a federal hate crime or an act of domestic terrorism if officials determine that it is tied to the shootings.

It declares support for the gunman who killed 51 in Christchurch, New Zealand, outlines fears about Hispanic people gaining power in the United States and appears to discuss specific details about elements of the attack, including weapons.

“Hispanics will take control of the local and state government of my beloved Texas, changing policy to better suit their needs,” the manifesto said. It added that politicians of both parties are to blame for the United States “rotting from the inside out,” but that “the heavy Hispanic population in Texas will make us a Democrat stronghold.”
