Placing bets now. Suspect is:

• White

• Male

• Under 35

• Some form of 'extremist' the liberal media doesn't like

• On anti-depressants

• Described as a loner

For bonus points:

• Has a manifesto

• ...On the internet

• ...Regarding either freedom, surveillance, or some other 'extremist' topic (racism, antisemitism, so on)

(edit, 11/5, 830am CST) So far, proven wrong on only one point: race. Proven right on: male, under 35. Waiting to see on the rest.

In an afternoon briefing, Wahl said that police are trying to "de-escalate" the situation and have been communicating with the man, who was described as black, 32 years old, 5 feet 11 inches tall and about 290 pounds with black hair.

The phrase "liberal media" has started showing up again lately like a herpetic blast from the past. No one of any sound mind, minimal education, or awareness over the last thirty years could ever earnestly classify today's media as anything other than jingoistic nonsense devoid of facts and replete with emotional rhetoric.

Its been like this for the 30 years that I glance at it. They really just cater government educated people that have no clue what life is about. Media is really like a babysitter to the mind.

Don't forget veteran!

Im not a betting man but damnit if I was I would bet on your horse.

I bet by the end of this trip I can get you to be... 10 to 1 odds your favor.

Don't forget odd pictures of himself holding a gun that look photoshopped.

When was the last time that an active shooter drill was done? If this was the first time they ran the drill, I'd be suspicious. If this is a monthly training drill, its not.

They shut down the airport too. Maybe they're flying in some Captagon?

Every major city in America has active shooter drills on a regular basis, and most large towns do them periodically, too. Even many small towns will do them from time to time.

It's training. It's preparing. It's what emergency responders and law enforcement agencies do.

So yes, any time there is a shooting in a large town or city, you're all but guaranteed to find that there was an active shooter drill some time in the recent past.

You'll also find that any time there is a major fire, firefighters had been training on how to fight fires some time in the recent past, too. Or when someone has a medical emergency, the paramedics will have recently trained to respond to medical emergencies, too.

It's what emergency responders do. They train so they can be better prepared to respond to emergency events.

Hah.

We also had war games on 9/11 simulating the crash of a passenger plane into the pentagon.

[Citation needed]

Because that's an entirely new one on me.

That's because its false. There were wargames going on, beginning two days prior. Each day had a hijacking exercise. On 9/10 (irc), they had a scenario with a hijacked aircraft being blown up over NYC, and on 9/11 the scenario was political radicals hijacking a plane and fleeing to a Cuba like island for asylum.

Disregard, it's not important what war games they were simulating on the same day. Afterall, they didn't simulate a missile hitting the pentagon. /joke

There was a shooting near Pacific Beach a couple hours ago. I heard helicopters, pretty crazy since it's close to home. San Diego is going up today...goddamn
