I mentioned Crooks's voter registration and token political donation in my blog the day before. Neither proves much taken on its own.

The gun club t-shirt I'd seen mentioned in social media but not in mainstream reporting until just after I posted this journal entry. I'm not 100% confident what to make of the group's politics. The mainstream press avoids characterizing it aside from quoting the club's founder who's all like, "Nooo, we're not political!" I haven't read up on it myself.

Other reporting I've seen, though not widely reported, is that acquaintances and neighbors said Crooks expressed right-wing opinions in conversation and previously had Trump signs in his yard.
