Thomas Matthew Crooks, the 20-year-old gunman who opened fire on Saturday at a rally for former President Donald Trump, was wearing a t-shirt emblazoned with "Demolition Ranch," the name of a popular YouTube Channel focused on firearms.
The YouTube channel, which has more than 11 million subscribers, is run by Texas social media personality and veterinarian Matt Carriker. In his YouTube profile, he says the account is "not your average gun channel."
On Monday afternoon, Carriker posted a YouTube video saying he was "shocked and confused" when he learned that Crooks wore one of his company's t-shirts, emphasizing that anyone can buy merchandise from Demolition Ranch's site. Carriker added that he had been asked by news outlets if he had ever had contact with the shooter.
