What is sad is that the first thing that came to mind after reading this headline is that my commute home was going to suck a little extra today…
The perp is either a crazy white dude or an extremist from a particular religious group.. Place your bets.
So it’s not a studious chinese woman?
That would be a Usual Suspects plot twist.
Studious chinese women (well, at least the chinese and woman part) only deface DC landmarks.

Have they blamed Trump yet?
Why in the world you think this anything to do with Trump?
Just some nut job from Tennessee. What blows my mind is how he even got that close. Apparently he was known already. He was recently kicked out of the house of reps for yelling “I’m a prophet of God” from the balcony. Then arrested for assaulting a police officer.
