    He reportedly targeted the Tampa school because of his hatred of America and “the school’s ‘obnoxious pride in America’ as illustrated by the large American flag mural on the front of the building,” the memo stated.

    “He disliked the school because the exterior of the building is painted like an American flag and he has negative views of patriotism towards the United States,” Crystal Clark, the chief communications officer for the sheriff’s office, said, according to WFLA-TV.

    The school, painted in red, white and blue and with stars and stripes, is named in honor of Francis Bellamy, who authored the Pledge of Allegiance in 1882 and lived in Tampa for seven years.

    This nut was triggered enough by pride in America to stab children during their first day of school.

    Patriotism is known to be a trigger for the left, many of whom have internationalist/socialist beliefs.

    Its also possible the MSM's heated rhetoric could have had a part in this.

    Well if that's what triggered him to want to attempt this, then we have no choice but to blame the left for instilling this hate in him. That's the same as the left blamimg Trump for the El Paso shooter for hating illegal immigrants.

    Guess we need to have a conversation for knife reform.

    The school is named after the guy who composed the star spangled banner-I think they get to show a little pride in America.

    The nutjob, who is in custody and being treated for mental illness, was turned in by his roommate before any harm was done.

    As per the link that you posted says that the man had multiple mental disorders. This is not a political case. This is not about Liberals or conservatives it is about a nut case that needs to be put away for life since there is no cure for such a sick puppy.
