So you aren't really defending him by posting it.

He said a scumbag thing (hoping it was an immigrant), with scumbag motivation (that the killer was other), premised on a fucking lie (specifically, "that's not who we are" is the lie).

He is a damn liar (political violence in the US is strongly disproportionately a right wing/conservative thing -- depending on the time period you select, 3/4 to 5/6 of all politicized murders), and absolutely sounded like a bigot to boot.
