Channel 5 did a small segment and even got an interview with the Blue hat lady in the background.
The town is pretty much what you’d expect for a place trump choose to have a rally. But it was a good insight into how these people think.
The rally was in Butler, a deep red town in the next county north of Pittsburgh.
The shooter was from Bethel Park, closer to and on the other side of Pittsburgh. There’s a subway line from Bethel Park to downtown Pittsburgh.
Pittsburgh itself is very blue. I’d call Bethel Park purple. It’s definitely more suburban than rural.
Bethel Park is pretty much old suburbs too. Not the old farms turned mcmansions like surrounding boroughs have done in recent years.

I think it will result in an increase in gun sales, like all the other times gun restrictions were being pushed by the government (and other lackeys of the owner class).
Second Amendment

Advocates for tighter gun restrictions in Pennsylvania seized on the shooting to urge state lawmakers to pass bills already introduced into the state legislature that would expand background checks, temporarily remove guns from potentially dangerous people and raise the minimum age to purchase rifles similar to the one used in the attack to 21 from 18.
I don’t have one, but I sure am considering it.
With the rise in fascism, being armed is being safe. Just make sure you practice with it and safely store it.
temporarily remove guns from potentially dangerous people
THE HORROR!
