This guy is an enigma. No criminal record, no known mental health issues, no ties to terrorist organizations according to FBI, yet he likely spent a copious amount of time researching and planning for this shooting. Makes no sense. His brother is dumbfounded.

Not sure if this has been posted, but there is evidence that shows that the shooter is a radical left-wing Anti-Trumper.
I sat alone in the dark one night, tuning in by remote.
I found a preacher who spoke of the light, but there was Brimstone in his throat.
He'd show me the way, according to him, in return for my personal check.
I flipped my channel back to CNN and lit another cigarette.
No there isn't.

enjoy your right wing frindge youtubers conspiracy videos.
The press were all over it when that fella shot the baseball republicans, they would be all over it if this guy was some left wing nut especially when everyone is hunting for a motive.
You are posting fringe fake news.
I mean this is the issue i think people get caught up on... even as a gun totin republican. I fully agree that something needs to be done however what needs to be done is make a law where people selling conversion kits to turn semi auto guns into full auto face 20+years in jail. Start putting them away.... Full auto guns are already illegal so people acting like this guy did this with legal firearms... No LEGALLY owned firearms converted to full auto is not a legal firearm. Full auto guns are banned in all 50 states.....
as to people talking about overall gun crimes... I would love to see though the gun crime statistics if they were able to break it down into legally owned firearms vs non vs suicides... Because as I said earlier all these gun crimes in st louis and chicago gangbanger on gangbanger those ain't legal firearms.... All the suicides arn't something that should count in the statistics but they do.. I'd love to see the real statistics that arn't inflaited by what could be as high as 90+% of gun homicides being suicides/illegal street guns. I'd love to see statistics on ONLY gun crimes committed by legal firearms committed by their rightful owners.
We do need to do something to stop these tragedies but changing gun laws that wouldn't even have affected this man in any way isn't gonna do shit. Because this man could pass a FBI background check with what were heard from police.

It's speculation, but potentially dangerous speculation. If the guy from the video is not the shooter than there's a chance an innocent guy could potentially be harassed/made to looks like a fool. With that said, something similar happened with a site that posted some of the attendees from the Charlottesville protest online where an engineering professor that was not in Charlottesville was harassed by people that thought he was the guy from the picture.

To summarise:
- Even if it's a crazy lone white guy it's still terrorism.
- Licensed carry does fuck-all. Nobody carrying their own guns could've made any difference today.
- You don't need hollow points or silencers for deer hunting.
- More guns in America doesn't fix this problem. the end.
- No, you won't be exercising your 2nd amendment rights to form a militia and bring down a corrupt government. You certainly haven't been arsed so far this year and even if you were the American military industrial complex and surveillance state would crush you like a bug the six months before you tried. Stop being cute.
Knowledge is power, and power corrupts. So study hard and be evil.
Yes they will keep dying. People only care when it happens by guns and gets big shocking press coverage. When people are killed nearly 3x more in alcohol related deaths where are all the forum posts? Wheres John Stewart pleading about doing something about drunks? Wheres Kimmel crying to have limits put on alcohol or banning it out right? When car accidents kill a ton of people there are no posts, theres no one pleading to put governors on vehicles to limit how fast they can accelerate or limit top speeds.
Why?
Because YOU and everyone else don't actually care about people losing their lives.
YOU only care about limiting/banning guns because you have an axe to grind with the part that supports it or you don't care for guns so you don't think anyone should own them.
But you probably drink or do on occasion and don't want that infringed on even though it would save lives.
You probably speed on occasion or don't want your ability to drive inhibited in anyway even though it would save lives.
Nope YOU, Kimmel, Stewart...ect just don't give a shit about actual lives you only care about the guns.
