Comparing a national horror with a local yokel whodunit act of vandalism is ridiculous. The fact is no one has any idea what that act of vandalism even means. Implying that it is related to gun politics at this point is speculation. Kim Adkins is a former NRA employee, who at most acknowledged tacit support for Terry McAuliffe's meaningless posturing on gun control.
