Last night Adam Purinton of Olathe, KS decided he needed to take his 1st and 2nd Amendment rights out for some exercise at the local sports bar. Purinton killed one patron of the bar and wounded two.
A man opened fire at a crowded Olathe bar, killing one man and wounding two others before he was arrested across state lines hours later, police said Thursday about an attack that some witnesses suggested had racial overtones.
Adam Purinton, 51, of Olathe, was arrested in Henry County, MO after the shooting Wednesday evening at Austins Bar and Grill in Olathe. He waived extradition from Henry County Thursday and was expected to be returned to Kansas, said Maj. Rob Hills of the Henry County Sheriff’s Office.
He has been charged with murder and attempted murder.
The Kansas City Star reports that Purinton provided his own explanation for his actions at the time of the attack:
At least one witness reportedly heard the suspect yell “get out of my country” shortly before shooting men he thought were Middle Eastern. Both men, engineers at Garmin, appear to be originally from India.
Like the fine, brave, upstanding citizen that he is, he fled across state lines to a near by Applebees where he asked the bartender “he needed a place to hide out” and that “he had killed two Middle Eastern men”.
The victims are Srinivas Kuchibhotla, Alok Madasani, and Ian Grillot. Kuchibotla died of a result of his injuries, while Madasani and Grillot were wounded. Grillot is reported to have stood up to the shooter in defense of Kuchibhotla and Madasani.

As much as that scene was Ennis taking the damned easiest way out ever around race representation in his works (oohhhhh….PREACHER) — I confess it was a downright visceral thrill when I read it.
And I wonder if he had a chat with ol’ David Brooks at the salad bar, while he was at Applebees…

What pisses me off about Adam’s first link is that the headline is: Witnesses say Olathe bar shooting may have racial overtones. May have?
Adam L Silverman
@Boussinesque: Most likely it’ll get classified as a hate crime. There are hate crimes that are not terrorism, terrorism that is not hate crime, and there is stuff like this, Dylann Roof’s shooting at Mother Emmanuel Church and the pasty, pudgy kid last week that really are both. They are not just an expression of bias made real through violence, they convey an attempt to instill a form of politically driven fear through the application of violence that is intended to impact and influence not the immediate victims, but rather others like them. This latter group, made up of survivors and those from their group (ethnic or religious or linguistic or gendered or some combination) are really the targets. As are everyone else in society in an attempt to make everyone choose up sides. Finally, government at different levels is also a target. The violence is intended to force them to act and, through acting, communicate whether they side with the victims or the perpetrators.

And then we’ll really see what’s what.

In the unintentional humor category, he told some interviewer (NPR or BBC) that nobody yet appreciates the “genius of Trump and Breitbart” and predicts a 50-year Republican rule. (Why not a thousand years, eh?)

Yes; and very funny.
My sense from other things I’ve read and seen so far is that the government they want is one where everything is run out of the WH. That’s what an authoritarian state does. All of these agencies are a threat to their vision – they have some measure of independent authority because while they’re part of the executive branch, they’re equally beholden to the laws that Congress has written and the courts. Trumps attacks on the courts support this vision, so yes, he wants to burn the agencies down and run a pure political operation out of the WH where all decisions are made. Look at the cabinet choices. Look at the who has been involved in the EOs.

He and his inner circle have no fucking idea how big a monster they’re trying to tame/cut down, and they have no idea how long it takes to get things done. Recall that it took Palpatine 20 years to get enough control of the beast so that he could abolish the Imperial Senate…the last vestige of the Old Republic, and bring about a new order of Moffs, Imperial Star Destroyers, and Death Stars. This is no Weimar Republic he’s trying to defang. It’s a 230 year old thing that has grown over those years to span a continent.

Kansas City again. Our shooters are not only awful but stupid. This guy shot a couple of Indians because he thought they were from the Middle East and members of a completely different religion than they actually practiced. The guy who shot up the Jewish Community Center a couple of years ago didn’t realize that there really aren’t that many Jews in Kansas City, and none of the people he shot were actually Jewish. There was one woman working at the nursing home, and a grandfather and grandson going to a singing competition for the grandson. Because many members of the community used the community center. What do you do with someone so ignorant that they hate people they know nothing about, and confuse those people they know nothing about, with other people they also know nothing about, who are completely separate from the first group?How can we wall off these haters into their own special place where they can’t hurt other people who are just minding their own business, going for a beer after work?
