Keep in mind the current synagogue shooting by a follower of the guy from New Zealand who shot up a mosque is part of a campaign mentioned in the NZ shooter's manifesto to try to get the American Government to attack the RKBA, cause for massive civil disobedience and possible violent conflict. The objective in the NZ (Christchurch, Mosque) shooter's manifesto was to cause such upheaval, and it appears that is one incident in what will (if the dots are connected) appear to be an epidemic of mass shootings, random and without specific racial, religious, or obviously related targets, with the objective of making people feel unsafe, no matter who they are.
The radio today (FOX!) mischaracterized incidents in Baltimore (not random, possibly just high collateral damage with one specific target) and the Synagogue shooting as "mass shootings coast to coast", when it may have been bicoastal but skipped the intervening landmass and citizenry. Needless to say, now I put as much faith in FOX as NPR, and at least know NPR to be consistently hostile to my civil Rights.
