I'm sure it will turn out to be, but does this quote seem a bit contradictory?
"We have no idea," he said of the motive. "It's pretty much a hate crime. It's not an insider."
If you have no idea, how do you know it was a hate crime?

It's 'only' 6 people this time, so hardly newsworthy.

I read somewhere after the last incident that 100 people a day die in the US as a result of firearms.

Killings inside with additional deaths outside, could be just a family or relationship disagreement.
Edit, nothing to see here - move along.
As Deva says.

If they armed every single person in America with concealed weapons, would that end gun related deaths?
