This guy went to a lot of trouble. How many late adolescents write 180 pages cumulatively the last three yeas of high school?
I don’t have the stomach for it, but it would be interesting if somebody else looked at the manifesto for coherence, organization, lack of repetition.
Apparently, he did some recon earlier, checking out the aisles and so forth. Probably–as we can assume of the Las Vegas shooter–enjoying the long, slow preparations.
He acquired body armor sufficient to stop a full mag of pistol ammo from the security guard. Not an “add to my cart” thing at Amazon, is it?

Looks as if he has a size eighteen neck. Was he physically intimidating? Being physically intimidating allows you to be personally a real jerk, up to menace, if you feel like it. Or was he personally okay in his social interactions up to this point? Was there reason, other than the previous year’s psych issue, to have an intervention of some sort, if only parental vigilance?

This is certainly a goal-oriented life. Not to blame anyone, but a sudden impulse to do bad stuff doesn’t offer clues in advance. This guy was shedding clues for at least a year. Nothing…?

@ Insufficiently Sensitive > “Glenn Greenwald did a great job on this vicious MSM syndrome yesterday”

Thanks for the link. I don’t agree at all with many of Greenwald’s ideological positions, but at least he is an honest opponent, and a man who sticks to his principles rather than to particular political party.

Ben Crump and Joe Biden on the same podium together?

I think this guy sums it up rather well…

This guy is our friend, Ty Smith AKA Modern Renaissance Man, who has done some great music reaction videos, a few of which have been featured here.

He also did a school board confrontation over CRT which went viral.

Love the guy. He considers himself a Christian with a ministry. I get that too. God bless him and keep him.

Supposedly he claims he was radicalized during the lockdown. He had plenty of time to write a manifesto.

Sickening, as are all the killings we see daily in the news. Gang shootings, often with innocent people hit in the crossfire, targeted “hate” killings by deranged individuals, fights in airports and in neighborhoods. Society’s glue seems to be too weak.

The Left’s MO is to actively foment violence, which makes them complicit in that violence. The calls of white supremacy and gun control are the obvious meme and ploy used to advance the overthrow of the established order (“fundamentally transform”) and disarm the law abiding citizenry.

What meds was he on? How long?
Was he known as a threat?

not to mention the oddity of a clearly troubled adolescent producing a “manifesto” of nearly 200 pages

The impulse to produce a 180 page manifesto is indicative of something odd. My supposition would be that that’s what he’s been doing in lieu of attending school or working. (Some sources say he was enrolled at the local community college, some deny this). One curio not answered is what kind of supervision and guidance he was receiving from his parents. This is an intact professional class family.
