Just look at the posts on this thread. Some people WANT to believe this, and are reporting it over and over again. It doesn't matter if it's credible. Information and misinformation that gets posted on the internet never dies. Posters who want to believe it will keep citing it as a possibility forever.

The question should be , was he prescribed any mental health type medicines to keep his issues in check. Had he been, and quit taking them is a key point.

Nobody saw any shooter. The shooter was hidden away in a hotel room.


What I find the most amazing is that SWAT was at the guy's hotel door within 4.5 minutes. That doesn't seem possible, but that's what one of the LE people said.

I wish everyone on both sides would stop with the assumptions and accusations. We don't know yet what the guy's motivation was. Is it impossible to believe that maybe he was a just a crazy man with no particular agenda at all, other than to kill?

Untrue. You are not referencing the shooter's facebook page. You are referencing someone else's facebook page.
