Pittsburgh Rabbi Refuses to Blame Anyone but Gunman for Synagogue Shooting

Tree of Life Rabbi Jeffrey Myers said Monday that only the shooter bears responsibility for the attack that killed 11 at the Pittsburgh synagogue Saturday.

CNN host Alisyn Camerota pressed Myers about whether the shooter chose to attack because of the influence of others.

"Do you blame anyone for what happened there at the Tree of Life, beyond the gunman?" Camerota asked.

"I don’t really foist blame upon any person," Myers said. "Hate does not know religion, race, creed, political party. It’s not a political issue in any way, shape, or form. Hate does not know any of those things."

"It exists in all people," he said.

Camerota said that might be true but asked, "What lights the match of hate?"

Myers quoted the first book of the Bible, Genesis, to say that man’s sinfulness is an ancient problem.

SOME of the people of Pittsburgh; some Jewish, want the president to apologize for him using the term 'white' Nationalist...President Trump said Nationalist; NOT white Nationalist.

I'm a Nationalist as well...and I agree with the president; it means someone who puts their country first. It doesn't matter what color you are.

So get over yourselves Pittsburgh...He owes NO ONE an apology for wanting to put America First. period!!!
