Terrorism Thread: It's Not Just Muslims. That's What They Want You to Think.

"There's not enough information being put out, I smell conspiracy."

"Why are they releasing this information? Seems a bit strange if you ask me."

[Anoat]

It's math, do we want to ban math?

As someone who played FFXI for years, I would love it if we banned math.

bumpfire stocks melt geometric equations.

It's to discredit the conspiracy theorists who claimed that the note was his manifest.

Yeah I'd heard there was "a note" and that in theory we'd discover his motivations shortly.

If this is all "the note" was, then we aren't any closer.

Why the fuck does anyone care what his motivations were? He killed 60 people, then himself. No more consideration needs to be given.

How else do you frame mass murder for political points? I mean, we're well past Americans giving a shit about monthly massacres.

Understanding motivations helps us identify similar behaviors in others, which helps prevent things like this.

He may not have one, but that's why you search.

I'm talking about the stupid thing our media and culture do where we spend weeks talking about the killer trying to "get inside his head." Something that I think is a huge contributing factor into why these mass shootings keep happening. The media glorifies these people and inspires the next guy to try to beat the high score. The only things worth knowing about the killer are how he was able to commit the crime.

[Heavencloud]

apparently the security guard was shot before the mass shooting. REALLY MAKES YOU THINK EH?

Is there a reason why I care about the timeline of who got shot when? It's not like a lot of time even elapsed between the first murder and the other 5 dozen...

[Niiro]

Cop that got shot beforehand was a time traveler trying to stop the shooting but Killary got to him first.

Well, before the reason the shooter randomly stopped shooting into the crowd was because he was interrupted by the guard. Now the reason the gunman stopped firing at people is nothing. Also it's just weird that a guard was shot totally randomly 6 minutes before any shooting transpired given that they were only alerted to his presence afterwards by the fire alarm in his room from gun powder right?

[thetruepandagod]

But to quote our lady Hillary "What difference at this point does it make?" in regards to the people who were shot and killed at least.

[Salodin]

The gunman stopped firing because he overheated his rifle with the bump stock, or he ran out of magazines for his favorite rifle and was switching?

And did they already confirm that no one had filed a complaint prompting the guard to show up?

Well the biggest thing is that in the original narrative paddock tried to flee, saw the security guard shot him and then decided to stay in his room. In current timeline his room is left unattended for around 80 minutes. Did you read that bumpstock thing somewhere? Not that it would matter given the pictures where he has stacks of ammo and guns preloaded ready to go laying damn near everywhere.

[Salodin]

No, it's a thing about bump stocks.

People be mad dumb about this. It doesn't matter if he had a billion bullets in the room, he is only going to fire as fast as he can reload. If he only had 10 clips for his favorite assault rifle, then he only has 10 clips before he has to reload his mags or change his gun. Real fucking simple, especially when they haven't released a list of everything recovered at the scene.

As far as the timeline goes, maybe someone was wrong about events immediately after the worst mass shooting in the US? Did the authorities release those statements, or news organizations trying to be the first to post? I know you be trolling, but really it's all quite silly.

You get 140 rds of sustained fire before the barrel reaches a temperature that can cook off a round, per training manual.
