That’s got to be the only credible piece of information any one will get out of this for a while.... it was put out there quick as a flash too.

I know that. Someone suggested he was Iranian or a foreigner. I just said the name “James Holmes” doesn’t sound foreign. My speculation is he is American military. We’ll see.

Googled jamesholmes154 9gag right after I saw your post, and all I came up with was an identical post on Tiggerdroppings, now it’s all over the place. Need to see the Youtube video, but haven’t found a link yet

Costumes. Let’s see, the premise of the movie is that some nut job wearing some kind of mask over his nose and mouth wants to terrorize Gotham and take over the town. Sounds like this guys was acting out the part of the bad guy (you know, Romney) in the movie. Just a thought. But adverising for folks to come in costume gave this clown the cover he needed to do the job. Of course he epitomizes the domestic terrorist watch list/lone wolf bad guy. And of course nobody in the theater was carrying right? Do they have a no firearms policy at this complex?

Helping keep mankind warm for 65 years.

Yeah- I’m unable to find the original youtube posting either..but we’ll find out soon enough I’m sure.

When I see PTSD I think military- BUT I’m also thinking IF he is/was military the media would be ALL over it..

the suspect is James Holmes, who was born December 13, 1987.

A 24-year-old suspect was arrested in the parking lot of theater, police said. They have not officially identified the gunman.

He was found with four weapons in his possession NBC said. They were a rifle and a shotgun and two handguns, police said. The rifle was reportedly a semi-automatic ‘AK type.’

The suspect alluded to bombs at his house. Police are at that apartment at Paris Street and 17th Avenue in North Aurora and have evacuated the building and the nearby area.

Well now that he is not Muslim, FR will attempt to sweep this under the rug

I’m guessing it’s a 4chan troll blaming it on 9gag with a random id. I searched JamesHolmes154 and nothing.

“Well now that he is not Muslim, FR will attempt to sweep this under the rug”

MadIsh32, you’re right if you’re trying to say that the blame game is inevitable.

But you’re wrong in your implication that FR is hypocritical. FR stands for traditional American patriotism. The greatest threats to these principles are islamicism and cultural marxism. Both of these threats are the result of large numbers of people turning away from the one true God.

Interesting. Either scrubbed almost immediately or as you said- some kind of troll.

Normally by now in this kind of incident we have the perp’s facebook page and all sorts of background info on him- so far all we know is his mom isn’t shocked and he got a traffic ticket in 2001. Odd.

How could he get a traffic ticket in 2001?

2012 = 24 years old
2001 = 13?

In a few hours it will be July 20. I take note of this because I have noticed that the date of July 20 is a date in which some very unusual events have taken place.

July 20, 70 AD-—Siege of Jerusalem by the Romans.

July 20, 1944-—Operation Valkyrie. Assassination attempt on Hitler at his East Prussia HQ.

July 20, 1969-—Man lands on the Moon.

July 20, 1973-—Bruce Lee dies at age 32.

July 20, 1976-—Viking I lander lands on Mars.

July 20, 1993-—Vince Foster “commits suicide” in Ft. Marcy Park

Of course.
TSA and body scanners at the front entrance and never mind the fact that he came in through the back (fire) door.

That's about how those people think, along with their confidence in the efficacy of gun bans.

The reports of him “breaking” in the fire door perplex me. Fire doors open out from the theatre. Some one on another thread thought that some one had opened the fire door for him. I know rumors are flying but just things that make you go hmmm.
