The good news is that the guy had three people on hand to give him psych care so they should be released in short time.

America still thinks guns are good?

It seems that Trump thinks that his supporters are not good because his motto is "guns should be everywhere so that good guy with a gun can stop a bad guy with a gun" and yet he never allows guns at his own rallies, which means that he thinks there aren't enough good guys with guns there rallying to stop bad guys with guns.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
