The family of the accused shooter, Nasim Aghdam, said she had a longstanding grudge against YouTube for removing her videos.

Her father, Ismail Aghdam, said she “hated” the company because YouTube reportedly removed or demonetized her videos.

Their policy only allows certain types of videos to make money off of advertisements.

Trump Jr. tweeted multiple times about the shooting in defense of the National Rifle Association (NRA) which has been battling student activists recently after a February shooting in a Florida high school left 17 dead.

He responded to a tweet wondering if the left would try to find a way to blame the YouTube shooting on “right-wing gun nuts.”

They will find a way. Just wait. https://t.co/NjQ9j9E1mj — Donald Trump Jr. (@DonaldJTrumpJr) April 4, 2018

Trump Jr. also said that CNN, a frequent target of his father, wouldn’t cover the political leanings of the shooter and would focus on covering special counsel Robert Mueller Robert (Bob) MuellerCNN's Toobin warns McCabe is in 'perilous condition' with emboldened Trump CNN anchor rips Trump over Stone while evoking Clinton-Lynch tarmac meeting The Hill's 12:30 Report: New Hampshire fallout MORE’s Russia investigation instead.

Yup I look forward to the whole PETA has more mass shooters than the NRA conversations. I’m sure they will cover that... right? https://t.co/2taoidxApp — Donald Trump Jr. (@DonaldJTrumpJr) April 4, 2018

The business mogul also retweeted from right-wing accounts saying the mainstream media would bury Aghdam’s involvement with PETA.
