I can't help but wonder if the "right-wing acronym" was 'MAGA."

That's not to say that MAGA people are bad--it's just the only "right-wing acronym" I can think of.

"DALLAS - The gunman who killed at least eight people and wounded a half-dozen more at a Dallas-area outlet mall was identified Sunday as a 33-year-old suspected neo-Nazi sympathizer named Mauricio Garcia, two senior law enforcement officials told NBC News.

Also, the law enforcement officials said, Garcia had several social media accounts and appeared to be drawn to neo-Nazi and white supremacist content. He was also wearing, when he was killed, a patch on his chest with a right-wing acronym.

That said, the officials stressed it was still too early in the investigation to ascribe a motive to the mass killing."

Law enforcement reporting this doesn't qualify as evidence?

Holy frickin' cats! You mean they've already got their own death squad? How much 1940s do we need to get before our country starts to push back against this stuff with more than just thoughts and prayers?

We've got to stop radicalizing our citizens. This is insanity.

Nope. Do you accept law enforcement declarations without confirmation always, or just when you have use for the narrative?

• Eight people were killed and at least seven others wounded when a gunman opened fire at an Allen, Texas, outlet mall Saturday afternoon, according to local officials.
• The shooter, who was killed by police outside the mall, has been identified as a 33-year-old man, a senior law enforcement source tells CNN.
• The gunman was armed with an AR-15 style rifle, according to the source. Investigators are looking into his potential extremist motivations, based on his social media presence and a patch he wore on his tactical gear, the official said.
• Victims in the attack range in age from 5 to 61 years old. Several remain hospitalized in the Dallas area.

None of that is evidence, and that doesn't mention a RWDS patch. Where did you learn it was a RWDS patch, because it wasn't front what you just posted?
