Comedienne Sarah Silverman was wrong:
It appears, however, that Patrick Crusius lived in the town of Allen in a state with an open-carry law, drove to El Paso with an assault-style weapon similar to an AK-47 and murdered 20 people in a Wal-Mart which permits open carry. Shortly before the shooting, he had posted online a manifesto which, The New York Times reports, "spoke of a 'Hispanic invasion of Texas, (which) detailed a plan to separate America into territories by race. It warned that white people were being replaced by foreigners."

A guy tries to light his shoe on fire & 18 yrs later we still all take our shoes off through security. In that time there have been 37 MASS SHOOTINGS. And nothing. Not a single regulation.— Sarah Silverman (@SarahKSilverman) July 29, 2019
Only six days later, Silverman was off by at least two, with the shootings in El Paso, Texas, Dayton, Ohio (only one person killed in three incidents in Chicago). However, she did correctly blame the
outbreak of mass shootings on the unwillingness to pass gun safety legislation.
That is, as one would
assume, far better than the President's reaction on Sunday. Speaking from yet another taxpayer-paid
vacations at at one of his golf courses, he stated "Hate has no place in
our country, and we’re going to take care of it,” though not by suicide (fortunately).. He remarked also that the
shooters are "really very seriously mentally ill," a bold assessment by someone who never has conducted a psychiatric or psychological examination of anyone.
