Perhaps parallels to OKC Bomber Timothy McVeigh. Mind-altered to believe some purpose in mass murder. Tragic. Investigate his every move and contact.

Imagine there's no countries

It isn't hard to do

Nothing to kill or die for

And no religion too

This is playing out exactly like one of the books by Matt Bracken.

I admonish all free purse to buy and read them.

It could just be that he knew it was a target rich environment. Country music fans run the gamut these days. A lot of it isn’t even “country music”. It’s more like “pop music”, one level above boy bands. .

Full auto weapons cost in the 10s of thousands. Take a long time to get. Unless he stole it (them) or already had them, this was not a spur of the moment attack.

Is that a tat or perhaps a scar? Trach maybe?

This definitely showed some skill. I know everyone thinks automatic weapons are easy, but...

No, I know it happens. But it always strikes me as weird, because there’s no goal when a nut does this. No goal I understand, anyway. Political goals I understand. Just wanting to watch people scream and panic and die, I don’t understand.

I know, right? Just a mild-mannered, non-political, non-religious, non-violent, non...... anything. No social media, no voter records, no affiliation with anybody or anything what so ever. “Just a guy in the neighborhood” kinda guy.

I know TONS of people like that..... /sarc

Covering for him? Hell, his brother probably helped him plan the whole thing too. I wouldn’t be surprised if they’ve been at some of those Antifa riots. I’m scanning the video of Hillary’s aborted “victory” party on the night of the election right now to see if they were there along with the rest of the losers who were sobbing.

Pull quotes regarding the brother:

Eric said that he and Stephen, 64, lived on different coasts - Stephen's last address was in Mesquite, Nevada - and that they did not speak that often.

'He's my brother, we don't have a very close relationship but we talk occasionally. There's no rhyme or reason here, it makes no sense'.

Eric said that they were hoping that the police do not shoot dead his brother's girlfriend Marilou Danley, 62, who is wanted by the FBI and was living with Stephen in Mesquite.

And this quote, which I find interesting giving the previous ones: He said: 'She has nothing to do with this, at least from my perspective.

Hold on there, Eric, if you two lived on different coasts, you don't have a close relationship with your brother, you don't speak that often (when's the last time you spoke with him? Has it been months? Years?), what's with this "She has nothing to do with this, at least from my perspective"?

If I were in that guy's shoes I would not be saying jack.

Curious that he is saying something, honestly. Is he trying to cover for someone?

Daily Mail describes "companion" Marilou Danley as being "of Indonesian origin". Other news sources say she is no longer a person of interest.

If you want to kill a lot of trump supporters often your efforts would be stymied because there’s a secret service and cops all over the place.

what if you wanted to avoid all that security but hit people who are likely supporting Donald Trump..?

I submit it would be an event like this.

My guess is he’s an inveterate, seething hater of Donald Trump.

At a presser right now they said he wasn’t known to police so I don’t know what the place would be searched for.
