I don't. They might commit more hate crimes, but mass shooters usually do it because they're demoralized and feel powerless. Trump supporters are the opposite rn. The shooter rolled a natural 1 for agility and Trump rolled a critical success for luck. It couldn't have gone better for him.

The DC for the shot was much higher than you think. He rolled a combined 24 when the DC was 25.

If he rolled a 1 he would have been shot dead before getting a shot off at all. Instead, he grazed the target's ear from over 100 feet away. That took skill.

It was around 400 feet, but that's still absolutely nothing for an AR. My 65 year old mother was hitting a six-inch target at 300 ft her first time ever shooting.

For comparison, Army recruits have to hit a human sized target at about 500 ft to qualify. And basically everyone qualifies.

i think he might’ve been a tad bit nervous though. that seems quite reasonable.
