There´s no age limit for hatred

I used to think that fanaticism and hatred tempered with age. I was wrong. The murderer is 88.
WASHINGTON — An elderly gunman, said by authorities to have a violent and virulently anti-Semitic past, stepped inside the crowded U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum on Wednesday, opened fire with a rifle and fatally wounded a security guard before being shot by other officers.

That is the problem with hatred.
Yet we have to see what his real motives where. Shooting someone at a holocaust museum doesn’t necessarily have to mean that this is the motive too.
Perhaps one of the people he shot or intended on shooting was a personal foe of his?
Just my 2 cents here – but the scene of a crimes doesn’t have to be associated to the motive 🙂
