He simply looked up on the Internet how to manufacture an Ammonium Nitrate (fertilizer) bomb and much like the rest of us do when searching how to make a good apple pie, proceeded to successfully accomplish what even practiced terrorists have had much difficulty accomplishinng, build a huge bomb and detonate it successfully.
Likewise, someone who had (apparently) no Military training/experience, goes out and obtains some weapons (including difficult to acquire--as reported--fully-automatic ones) and ammunition and proceeds (without ever having praticed, prepared or had any "instructions") to massacre some 80+ young children.
Makes sense to me!!! /sarc
I agree that he could not have acted alone, the technical details alone make one conclude that ( see below). My theory is that he and possibly several of his cohorts were recruited and duped as a sociopath or psychopath by Islamofascist in a perfect taqquiya operation, and funded.Its a repeat of what happened in McVeigh’s case IMHO.
The true test is in who was killed. Not Muslims. Thise targeted were his very one countrymen, so the present meme does not hold up, and therfe is already a cover up in process.He was supposedly anti Islam, so why were his fellow countrymen killed? Because that is what his controllers wanted and preopared him to do, rather than attack Muslims.The same twist happened with McVeigh and company.
Soon we wil have our own school children taken by terrorists , this will happen in our schools in America.It may be by the tangos themselves or by their “home grown proxies”.Obamas policies invite that and assure it. And it will happen first in a red state.
Few in the Wst understand just how comprehensive the strataegy of taqqiya truly is.The goal is tio destroy and demoralize opposition to Islamification by using deluded proxies to kill their own.

He would need more than fertilizer. He would need diesel fuel oil,dynamite or some form of explosive in small quantity,and detonators, and a place to mix the matrix and barrels to make up the bomb corpus.Unlikely this could be done by just one person.

“The ammonium nitrate is like the engine behind the explosion, but the engine needs fuel,” Goodpaster told Life’s Little Mysteries. In fact, bombs need two components beside the fertilizer: a detonator and a fuel. The fertilizer must be mixed with a fuel in an exact ratio, and the detonator must be able to generate sufficient energy, he said.
How bombs explode
The first thing that happens during a fertilizer bomb blast is the explosion of the detonator. It contains a small amount of an explosive compound in it, and when it discharges, it creates what experts call a detonation wave. This detonation wave radiates outward from the detonator at a speed of about 2 to 3 miles per second through the mixture of ammonium nitrate and fuel, Goodpaster said.
The energy of the detonation wave causes the ammonium nitrate in the fertilizer to vaporize – the solid fertilizer becomes a gas in an instant. The ammonium and nitrate molecules break down, and a large amount of oxygen gas is suddenly formed.
The gas released from the decomposing fertilizer is what drives the explosion. The rapid release of oxygen, along with the energy from the detonation wave, ignites the fuel. When the liquid fuel ignites, it rapidly combusts, and even more gas is released.
“All that gas is generated in a very short amount of time,” Goodpaster said. “That’s what causes the pressure waves of the explosion.”
The pressure waves travel at the speed of sound, about 1,100 feet (343 meters) per second, and can damage nearby structures or even kill bystanders if the waves are strong enough, Goodpaster said. Heat is also released during the combustion, and it may be enough to set a car on fire, but most of the damage from such explosions is due to the pressure waves.
Perfect mix needed
The fertilizer and the fuel have to be combined in a just the right proportions, Goodpaster said, or else nothing will happen.
“If they’re not mixed the right way, the detonator could go off, but there will be no explosion. It would just burn,” he said.
Household fertilizer contains chemicals other than ammonium nitrate, said Steven Van Kauwenbergh, principal scientist with the International Fertilizer Development Center, a non-profit industry group. When other chemicals such as ammonium sulfate or urea are mixed in, the ammonium nitrate is no longer able to explode, he said.
Accidents involving fertilizer explosion are very rare, Van Kauwenbergh said. Perhaps the worst such accident was an explosion that occurred in Germany in 1921. Workers at a fertilizer plant were using dynamite to try to break up a large mass of solidified fertilizer that had formed and was clogging up the functioning of the plant, he said. In the ensuing explosion, at least 500 people were killed.
