So far it sounds to me like "average Joe" just did…
Which certainly meets the needs of a certain political agenda, Elfiero. Yet no "average Joe" does this sort of thing. No "average Joe" owns this stockpile of weaponry and plans this kind of attack. No. This was no "average Joe."
Well, at least he's dead. No on-going trials and endless appeals and whatever else.
That is exactly the time we should be concerned. Any time a mass killing or some other heinous crime ends with a convenient, easily summarized "suicide", we should be particularly suspicious. Because we are left with no legitimate way to even search for answers. Nobody will ever be able to ask the fellow why he did this, what lead to his breakdown. All that can be done now is to generate conjecture and further various political agendas one way or another. It's
NEVER a good thing when the primary suspect "kills himself".
I would assume that the coward didn't want to look family members or whoever he respects or cares about in the face after he murdered all these innocent people.
Do you really believe that a person capable of amassing that many weapons in a hotel room overlooking a 20,000+ venue and planning an attack for however long he did and then executing that attack and firing upon the crowd with semi and automatic weapons for a minimum of 20 minutes in an attempt to kill hundreds is even remotely worried about the looks on the faces of anyone he "respects or cares for"? Do you really think "THAT GUY" isn't so far ******* gone that a "look" is going to give him some kind of grief breakdown? Really?

I bet she's sympathetic today...
You don't want to play Elfiero. I'm good at this. Very good. I simply point out the logic threads and follow them. Police had located the room within 20 minutes but did not attempt the breach for another hour? That makes no sense whatsoever. How long was the shooting continuing? Did the shooting continue for an hour? Did they wait 30 minutes after the shooting ceased? I understand the whole Swat protocol thing, but seriously? That was waived after Columbine. And when a guy is firing freely on a pinned down crowd of thousands... You think maybe it's time for a few cops to throw out the "Let's Roll" mentality? Maybe?
And again, 23 guns at last count? Some of them seriously big-*** guns? And thousands of rounds of ammo? And exposives? And bipods? Are these the worst ******* maids ever? Did he have Do Not Disturb signs up all week? He must have. He simply must have. Why explosives? What was he going to do with them? He apparently didn't use them. He didn't run out of time. The police waited an hour to breach the room. Why didn't he use the explosives?
Of course it's possible, even likely that some old dude went off his rocker and decided randomly to shoot up the biggest concert venue he could conveniently get access to. But man, isn't this a giftwrap for the anti-2nd amendment crowd? Particularly if all those guns were legally registered to him. Why that would be a GREAT reason to suggest people shouldn't have access to guns! I mean look at what they DO with them!
I'm very interested in seeing how long it takes for the hotel surveillance footage to come out. I would have felt much better if it had been released within minutes of the event. I would have liked to believe that there is no definitive evidence that nobody but crazy McOldDude went into or out of that room. My crazy conspiracy vibes tell me that we won't see any of those tapes for a really long time. And by that point... well. Who knows. Conspiracy nuts gonna be conspiracy nuts.
