Right wing apologists were spreading the line last night that a fight broke out between Mair and another man and Jo intervened. They claimed it was all a matter of co-incidence that she was attacked.

Reading some of the Tweets about Jo's killer, I have suddenly wondered. Should we perhaps be using 'vulnerable' rather than mentally ill?

Guns are a base issue for Republicans to get white working class votes.
