So he’s from Canada but been living in the US for 20 years? In a storage shed or something? But had time and resources to get indoctrinated with American/US crazy right wing nut job politics?

Random motorist having a mental health issue or some wingnut protesting the city’s progressive LGBTQ policies enacted earlier this year?

Since his violence so far seems to be mostly or entirely directed against himself, I’m leaning towards the former.

People who are protesting something usually make it very clear that they’re protesting and what they’re protesting against. Actually, I shouldn’t say “usually”, I should say “always”. Because that’s the definition of a protest. If you’re not communicating it, no protest has occurred.

It’s almost surely a mental health issue.
