This is actually a good point.

This whole thing is really weird. I'm sure as time moves forward, there will be some major details that are not being shared.
A small civil aviation plane wouldn't have been able to do as much damage.

Take it down. Not because we need to avoid the face of evil, but out of respect for the dead.

I would disagree. A twin engine plane descending straight into a tight crowd would be devastating.

Disappointing that the guy offed himself. At the very least he should have gone down with 20-30 rounds in him from the SWAT team. Far better (never happen, but would be nice) if they took him alive and gave him, along with skinning knives, iron bars, lit cigarettes, etc. to the families of the people he gunned down. Only problem would be making it last long enough for him to suffer at least 58 deaths in one.

why do people feel that they need to make this huge, over the top statements on what they wish would happen to the guy to prove how REALLY REALLY mad you are about it?
It's called venting. Or, blowing off steam, if you'd prefer. Obviously, doesn't make the actual situation even the tiniest bit better. Could always vent by breaking something - fewer repairs this way.

Or disassociation.

He was not up close seeing faces and forcing people on their knees like the Columbine, Pulse or San Bernadino (censored) shooters.

Sure he could have made it a giant Molotov cocktail and flown it right into the crowd.

We don't know if they are dead, but as a general rule Hearst Newspapers would not post of image of them if they were confirmed dead.

Seriously this. If you can get your NFA stamp, you have to be looking at north of what? $30k for something that is in good working order? And even then, how do you address the overheating situation in the barrel?
a legal m249 bagged and not fired is north of $80k, and it takes a lot of screening, time and red tape to end up with one... a citizen cannot just go buy one even if they have $80k to blow.

i expect if you take the time to make some shady connections you can get an illegal cheaper, but i dont know that.

if so,

All I've really seen so far are pics from younger days and then the one where his eyes are closed and he's about to do a shot. I'd like to see a more recent photo in order to make a comparison. That guy looks like an older, more effeminate version of the guy taking a shot.

I didn't conflate them...I simply mentioned it also. It stood out to me. Didn't say they were comparable...

If you are actually a sharpshooter, served in the military maybe, good for you. On most days I wouldn't even notice or think twice.

i was merely pointing out that you quoted it - meaning you should EDIT your post because you propagated it....then I noticed your username.....

Apologies if you thought I was comparing them.

Thank you. Your first point of quoting it was quite valid and I immediately edited it. Your second point is what bothered me so, but I accept your apology. By the way, Sharpshooter is a reference to a notorious insect that screws up wine grape vines.

How did those 4chan guys identify the bike lock assaulter from just his eyes? Surely if they can do that, they can match up these pics .

Humans can commit acts of unspeakable horror, but the good that we are capable of can be extremely moving. I get a bit misty eyed reading that. For every psychopathic killer, there are numerous people like this out there.

They had a lot more than just his eyes. They used several identifying features to compare him holding the bike lock to him without his face covered.

Ok let's move on..... although it was also in this quoted post you replied to and your original reply to me....my bad. But you should edit those too although it is buried in the nested quotes now thankfully.
Thanks for the heads up. Edited.
