JUST IN: Louisville shooter Connor Sturgeon appeared to be a radical liberal and carried out the bank shooting that killed 5 people in an effort to prove a point about gun laws.

The attack was also a racial one as his manifesto cited "upper class white people dying."

Sturgeon advocated for gun control in his manifesto by talking about how easy it was for him to get a gun.

"These people did not deserve to die, but because I was depressed and able to buy [guns], they are gone. Perhaps this is the impact for change: upper class white people dying," he said in the manifesto.

"I certainly would not have been able to do this were it more difficult to get a gun. I know our politicians are solely focused on lining their own pockets, but maybe this will knock some sense into them,” he added. “If not, good luck."

"OH MY GOD THIS IS SO EASY," he wrote in a journal entry.

"Seriously, I knew it would be doable, but this is ridiculous. Walked in and bought a gun, 4 mags and 120 rounds for $700. Got some glasses and earplugs."

"It is legitimately unfathomable how easy this all was... WAY better liar than anyone gave me credit for... good heavens, I just lied to everyone so easily and [no one] caught on."

"But let us not forget the most important player here. The one who made all this possible. Let’s give it up for the NRA!!"

"I couldn’t have done this without all of your lobbying dollars! You really brought this whole thing together."

"This is the world you are building. One without any regard for the value of human life."

"This is not an accident. I’m sorry I had to lie all week, but this [is] something I have to do."

"It has all been planned out, and it is flawed, but I think it will work."

"I know I won’t be around to see it, and know that makes me a coward. But I pray this can send a message to those with power that they are not invincible."

Sickening.
