Police suspect his ideology might be linked to his motive, NPR has confirmed. While it is an ongoing investigation, evidence suggests that Garcia held far-right extremist beliefs.
At the time of his death, officials say Garcia was wearing a patch with the acronym "RWDS" — which stands for "Right Wing Death Squad." The same patch was worn by a Proud Boys member who pleaded guilty to seditious conspiracy during the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.

I've heard that too but I am witholding opinion until the investigation is completed. BTW, he clearly had mental health issues.

Lt Col Charlie Brown Nailed it. Lack of mental health care, proliferation of drugs, defunding police resources equals is a recipe for societal disaster

What!? Withhold opinion until the investigation is complete?! What kind of hyper-partisan are you? Don't you know that you should have immediate come out and stated a partisan opinion as fact and if proven wrong just stay silent and move onto another talking point?
Are you trying to be reasonable or something?

On the bright side -- Diversity , equity and inclusion must be going well with far-right extremists
Nashville, Atlanta, and Texas shooters span the gamut.

CSM Chuck Stafford - True. The different between the "partisan right" and the "partisan left" is that the right acknowledges that the far-right are a bunch of nutjobs that deserve what's coming to them while the left ignores the far-left nutjobs and just goes back to calling out the far-right ones and says they represent the rest of the right.
Left: "You've got far-right racist fringe groups!"
Right: "You're correct. They are a bunch of loons that don't deserve a spot in polite society. You've got a bunch of far-left nutjobs as well."
Left: "AND those racist fringe groups represent the entire right!"
Right: "What!? No they don't. Just like those fringe far-left groups don't represent all of the left"
Left: "That proves your racist, sexist, and everythingphobic!"
Right: "You know, there's not talking to idiots like you. Maybe those far-left fringe groups DO represent a vast majority of you"
