He sent this tweet two hours after the incident. No one knew at the time what were the motivations behind it. All they knew at the time was that CEO of subsidary headquartered in Minnesota was shot (by accident or otherwise) and that was it. We later learned the rest.
What were the gun related deaths that weren't tweeted about?
By all means I don't feel sorry for this guy, I agree with the sentiment, but I don't want politicians to be the ones asking to murder someone. I want them to regulate, so killing people this way is not possible.

Literally hundreds each year in just their State.
Ok so 124 victims of gun violence in Minnesota in 2023 without any context. It could be gang violence, shot by police, suicide etc. When you say somebody didn't comment about someone else's death you would know the victim name and some background story what happened.
Wait, SO you are both defending Wallz for sending a condolences tweet for a dead evil CEO because there wasn't any context to the killing yet, and defending him for not tweeting about the other 124 victims in his state because there wasn't enough context. Kinda sounds like you are just defending Wallz because you like him.
