  1. Yeah, ok, sooo... your arms deal goes bad and the way you cover it up, is by shooting out the windows of your hotel room for 10 minutes and leave behind the guns. Do you 'people', ever think before posting?

  2. He had at least three different shirts, one of which he appears to have worn for the first two days. Green, white and blue shirts and possibly a grey shirt. At some point toward the last day, hes wearing the same or similar shirt from the first day. The psychology is curious; how many showers and clothes changes would you do, preparing for a suicide mission? Would you do laundry? Would you just pop into Walmart and pickup a couple clean shirts?

  4. How, is that he was wealthy enough to buy a bunch of guns and a high priced hotel room. Not much they couldve done, short of inspecting his bags. While that may impulsively seem like a viable solution, imagine that now everywhere you go, you have to go through TSA style security to get through the door. Some stuff cant be stopped, but mostly these are social issues, where either society created the conditions for these people to spawn, or disaffected individuals of the community that couldve done something, chose not to, because its 'not my problem'. Entitlement and no sense of civic duty are the common threads that run through all these things at some point. This guy seems to be an outlier though. One thing is sure, he was affluent enough to have obtained any weapons he wanted, so its highly unlikely that anything short of a comprehensive gun ban, would have kept him from legally getting the guns he needed to do the job.
