Greg Abbott said at a news conference.<\/p>\n<p>In what has become the new normal, before an investigation can even begin, Dem pols are using these horrific events to press their agenda. It must take a certain mindset to use the pain and suffering of others in such a fashion. As if to prove the point, Peter Paul Montgomery Buttigieg, Democrat Presidential hopeful and Mayor of South Bend, Indiana, jumps right in.<\/p>\n<p><strong>By Joshua Caplan   <\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cAmerica is under attack from homegrown, white nationalist terrorism,\u201d Buttigieg said in his opening statement before the AFSCME 2020 Public Service Forum in Las Vegas. \u201cWe have to talk and act about two things in this country: first of all, we are the only country in the world with more guns than people. It has not made us safer. We can respect the Second Amendment and not allow it to be a death sentence for thousands of Americans.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNumber two, white nationalism is evil,\u201d the Sound Bend mayor continued. \u201cIt is inspiring people to commit murder and it is being condoned at the highest levels of the American government and it has got to end.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>El Paso law enforcement has yet to confirm the suspected shooter\u2019s motive, rendering Buttigieg\u2019s pronouncement premature.<\/p>\n<p>Police arrested Patrick Crusius, a white male in his early 20s, in connection with the mass shooting, spokesman Sgt. Robert Gomez said. Several media sources confirmed that the suspect lives in Allen, Texas, about 650 miles from El Paso.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>To my surprise, &#8216;Beto&#8217; O&#8217;Rourke, who&#8217;s Congressional District included El Paso, expressed his sympathy and is putting his campaign on hold, canceling scheduled events in Nevada and California this weekend so he could immediately return to the city. <del datetime=\"2019-08-04T11:13:15+00:00\">That&#8217;s a stand-up move. <\/del> <\/p>\n<p>Seems I spoke too soon.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;He is a racist, and he stokes racism in this country,&#8221; O&#8217;Rourke told reporters. &#8220;We&#8217;ve had a rise in hate crimes every single one of the last three years. During an administration where you&#8217;ve had the president call Mexicans rapists and criminals.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/amy-klobuchar-accuses-trump-of-fueling-hate-in-wake-of-el-paso-shooting-criticized-for-politicizing-tragedy\">Fox News<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Not Buttigieg, though.
