I never listened to him, but my first thought when I read about it was he was only 31. If you knew you would die so young, would you spend your life spewing hate? This will, and already has, ricocheted into more hate. It makes me feel very sad, too, for all the reasons you mentioned.
Thank you for this thoughtfully-and compassionately composed message. I agree 100%. The man never spoke a word I could agree with. But acts of violence such as this do nothing but enrage and give "permission" to others to increase the response with other and even bigger acts of violence. We need to stop all of this and bring it to a place of humanity and intelligence.

Thanks for your comment and thanks for reading.
I am going to put my phone down now, and start my day with your sentiments and your friend’s text message. Thank you.
