    I would’ve sworn this was an Onion headline. What an absolutely deranged piece of shit.

      It would have been a perfectly acceptable thing to say (in my opinion) if he didn’t follow up by saying the suspected shooter certainly appears to be one of them.

      The original statement makes sense that the person who’s job is to govern an area hoped it wasnt one of the people he represented.

      Then when he made the second comment, it all fell apart because being one of them apparently meant they could still be a Utah resident. So he was only representing a subset of the Utah population, and therefore breaking his Oath of office.
