Unless he is completely insane, the shooter is a murderer. It doesn't matter what else he is, or claims to be, or what his job is, or who he voted for. He might have been wearing a blue shirt. Some in here would advocate taking action against all who wear blue shirts. To sad even for a scornful LOL.

Probably not because most religously inspired killings are rooted in some sort of offence or ridicule against the said faith. You can't offend the beliefs of someone who has none.
Also atheist is wrong term to describe a person of no faith as it does have connotations of being against religion which could lead to hate. Given the lack of violence seemingly carried out by 'atheists' purely on anti religous grounds the correct term would be the latin nullifidian, a person of no faith.

Atheists do not have that fear and instead will make the most of life with respect to other human beings.

Hi Gibbon nice theory but the sort of "atheist" trolls you get on the internet are at least as intolerant and insane as the worst religious cult, and just as bloodthirsty. Check Twitter. Worse, they believe that they have "science" to back up their mad eugenic visions.
All is not lost however. These trolls are I think not actually atheists, but just trolls who have chosen atheism as a vehicle for their all-too-human failings. And there you have it. The source of the evil is not religion, or atheism, or the bogey man, it is inside is. Any you can use almost anything - politics, religion, atheism - to ventilate it.Comment

Politically atheistic regimes in the 20th Century totted up millions of deaths. Extreme ideologies of any kind result in mass murder. Religion is just one particular flavour. I'd contend that the idea that religion naturally leads to murderous ideology is not proven. Rather I think an ideology becomes murderous either when the ideology is considered to be more important than individual people, or when the ideology labels non-subscribers to be less than human. The latter might indicate that while ridicule and lampooning should generally be tolerated, there is a point where it can become dehumanising, so even ridicule isn't unrestrictedly a good thing.
Ridicule might well be born out of irrational hatred.Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!Comment
