According to the New York Post, that’s exactly right.
Anti-Trump.
Anti-Christian.
Pro-Obama.
A recipe for disaster?
I bet you haven’t heard this much on the news, but don’t worry, we’ll always bring you the truth!

Here's what the NY Post reported:
The 18-year-old accused in the fatal shooting at a Colorado charter school shared social media posts that were critical of President Trump and Christians, but heaped praise on former President Barack Obama.
On what appears to be his Facebook page, Devon Erickson gave no indication of the carnage to come at STEM School Highlands Ranch.
The shaggy-haired teen filled his page with posts about the Denver Broncos, playing paintball and appearing in community plays like “Les Miserables” and “Legally Blonde The Musical.”
A day after Election Day in 2016, he shared a videofrom Seth Myers’ “Late Night” show blasting Trump and groused about Christians in another post two years earlier.
“You know what I hate? All these Christians who hate gays, yet in the bible, it says in Deuteronomy 17:12-13, if someone doesn’t do what their priest tells them to do, they are supposed to die,” Erickson wrote in May 2014. “It has plenty of crazy stuff like that. But all they get out of it is ‘ewwwwww gays.’”
Erickson also shared a pro-Obama post from Occupy Democrats in 2015.
“In just six years I nearly tripled the stock market, cut unemployment in half, ended two wars, cut the uninsured rate in half, brought gas down to $2.75, and cut the annual Bush deficit by two-thirds. Oh, and I got bin Laden,” reads the post, which features a photo of Obama.
The Facebook page indicates Erickson liked music by Ed Sheeran, Fall Out Boy, Eminem and Bruno Mars and TV shows like “The Walking Dead” and “South Park.”
Older photos show him smiling with friends and acting on stage. In 2014, he posted that he’d sent his resume in for a spot on “The Walking Dead.”
“The chances are 1/1000000 but I still have a chance. Wish me luck,” he wrote.
One student was killed and eight others injured when Erickson and an underage suspect allegedly opened fire inside the K-12 school Tuesday afternoon.
George Brauchler, the district attorney for Colorado’s 18th Judicial District, which covers Douglas County, asked the media to “adopt a no-notoriety approach.”
Summit.news also reported:
18-year-old Devon Erickson, who killed one student and injured seven more during a shooting at a public charter school in Colorado, previously posted on social media about his hatred for Christians and President Trump.
Erickson and a younger accomplice walked into the STEM School Highlands Ranch yesterday and opened fire on students in two classrooms.
While the motivation behind the attack remains unknown, according to Heavy, Erickson was a leftist who despised Christians and opposed Donald Trump.
“You know what I hate? All these Christians who hate gays, yet in the bible, it says in Deuteronomy 17:12-13, if someone doesn’t do what their priest tells them to do, they are supposed to die. It has plenty of crazy stuff like that. But all they get out of it is ‘ewwwwww gays,’” Erickson wrote on Facebook two years ago.
He also shared a video of comedian Seth Meyers attacking Donald Trump and another post praising Barack Obama.
The shooter appeared to be into the goth or grunge aesthetic, writing “I’m covered in ink and addicted to pain.”
It shouldn’t matter what political ideology a school shooter has unless that ideology was the motivation behind the rampage.
