His behavior doesn't add up
His behavior already reveals stark inconsistencies that question the mainstream explanation of events. For example, he opened fire on innocent people but then calmly surrendered to police without resistance. This is not consistent with the idea of "killing everyone."
Furthermore, he then admitted to police that his apartment was booby-trapped with explosives. If you were really an evil-minded Joker trying to kill people (including cops), why would you warn them about the booby trap in advance? It doesn't add up.
"Holmes was taken into custody shortly after the shooting, police said, adding he didn't resist when he was arrested," reports a local CBS news affiliate.
"After his arrest, Holmes told police about 'possible explosives in his residence,' Oates said. When police searched his apartment, they discovered it was booby-trapped and evacuated surrounding buildings, police said. Oates said bomb technicians are determining how to disarm flammable or explosive material in the third-floor apartment. He said police could be there some time."
None of this checks out. If you're a killer bent on causing mayhem, why tell the police about your surprise bomb waiting for them back at your apartment?
Holmes was clearly provided with exotic gear...

For one well known example, look at Albert Einstein, a strange man, forgetting to dress in the morning and sh owing up in pajamas with no shoes. Nikolai Tesla. John Nash. The famous artists who had bouts of mental illness are too numerous to attempt mentioning.
Combine creativity and intellectual pursuits, as in the instance of a burgeoning and relatively new field such as neuroscience, and I'd suspect eccentricity at a minimum was more the norm than normal behavior. Crazy wouldn't preclude success and employment so long as he continued to produce and didn't kill anybody.
I think that if he was with any group, it would be the occupoopers’ anarchy division. He was raised in a liberal city in our most socialist state. His church is liberal. He attended marxist universities and his major - neuroscience is populated with Marxist idealists out to create the perfect socialist man through science. At the time he was around his socialist peers in college, Bush Derangement Syndrome was all the frothing California rage.
He could learn anything he wanted to know from the Internet and he’s smart enough to find the information and materials and apply it all by himself.
It sounds to me, from what I have read about the material he had for the operation, like someone pulled the $20,000 number out of their hinney for this article. I read he was taxpayer funded-living on unemployment checks. He may have inherited money or saved it up. He did not come from a poor family.
Maybe he had some credit cards. I've heard stories of people having those things in the past.
One problem I have with that theory is that if this guy is so smart why assume someone would walk. He was basically going on some crazy hope that someone from the apartment building would get pissed off that there was loud music, come knock on his front door, come on in and the whole place blows up. If this guy was hell bent on murdering people why not just have a remote control bomb go off..
If he wanted to kill police officers he had his chance when he was waiting by his car for them, he didnt even put up a fight(For obvious reason, he wants to be infamous now, forever connected to this movie) He must have known when the police arrived that his detonation didnt go off as planned
The communist DemocRATS are desperate right now so nothing they did would surprise me. Their useful idiots are like muzzie suicide bombers and are always willing to sacrifice themselves for “the cause”. Especially when they know their “leaders” will make sure they get off. They’ve already started on “the guy is crazy and was on drugs” routine. The cops are staying busy trying to find out where the guns and ammo came from. They’re not really interested in Holmes. The ‘RAT politicians have another election year rubber chicken to beat the GOPers over the head with. We’re going to see a couple “polls” this week where “americans” say that gun control is their number one issue. JMO.
So basically you are asking why a person acting irrational wasn’t rational?
Okay - I am more than a bit dense and sometimes it takes awhile, but I think I get it now. The Police chief was reacting to the first point that Holmes was trying to divert the police to his apt. before the massacre at the theater. That didn’t work, so Holmes just plain chickened out and didn’t want to die, so he gave up. That does make sense.
Sure it does, it's what crazy people do. They want to be the big shot, tell the cops all about it, be center of attention....He had all the answers....He told them what's up... Talk big about how he set up his apartment for the big boom...Crazy people do and say crazy irrational things.
Some crazies admit to murders they never committed, wanting attention....All kinds of nutbars out here.
that someone would walk into his apartment I meant to say
No, his mother stayed home and “holed up” per neighbor and it is his father that went to Colorado.
I suspect they had words after the winter semester when they found out his grades. Much change and upheaval happened in his life then.
In the past his mother called him a “very good son”, that’s an actual quote.
Now, since Colorado, she had no doubt they had the right person. I suspect nasty phone calls or emails with threats of carnage promised by her son. because he had failed at the one place he always fit—the smart, quiet, no problem, perfect and studious student.
“could have hurt first responders going to his pad. Huh?”

I was commenting on the comment that this would never go federal because it was solely a state issue. My point was never think this administration would be above doing anything. Would you have imagined any President using executive orders to wipe away current laws, especially popular ones?
Bingo!
See 68.
I read about that and it was fairly well organized but I don't see much about equipment. Got more info?
.
Time will tell. We are just speculating at this point but it is not speculation that the neighbor downstairs had gone up to his door and turned the knob to discover the door was not locked and she said something inside of her said this was not a good thing to do so she went back downstairs and called 911.
The music had been going for some time (hour?) according to one of the other threads.
My guess is the plan was for the IED in the apartment to detonate and draw LE/FD/EOD there and give him a few extra minutes.
He was not unemployed the whole time in Colorado. he worked for the school. "As a grad student you have an opportunity to work for the university in the research program for the programs that you're studying," university spokeswoman Jacque Montgomery said. "He worked in the neurosciences program. It is a paid position." http://www.cnn.com/2012/07/20/us/colorado-theater-suspect-profile/ He also worked the part time at McDonalds the year prior to Colorado, saving money for his PhD because he couldn't find work after he received his bachelors degree, he was said to be depressed over that and that is why he went for even more school at that time.
Question: Where does an unemployed, introverted medical school student get the training to deploy sophisticated booby traps, tactical body armor, weapons systems and more? Certainly not in graduate school!
The internets...
Thank God that woman did not open the door..if she had she would have been killed instantly
