Someone on twitter posted a photo of what could be him with a Trump flag follow by posts of "that explains it!".
Looks to me he's fooling around with a Trump flag but I suppose that won't matter to the libs and MSM.

I'd really like to see a blood chemistry workup immediately post booking, but that won't happen...

As happens so often, the shooter is being reported as having been known to law enforcement, with mental health issues going back to middle school, and very troubling social media postings.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

One of these days that may well be sufficient for incarceration.

And it won't be an improvement.

Bet more are shot in Chicago this evening and they will say nothing.

Meanwhile

So who else finds it suspicious that the same .gov personnel who can’t do their jobs of investigation in the first place can ID, announce they know who did it, and catch them quickly after such an incident? Just like wrapping up an investigation in a police procedural show?

Very thin line between where red flag laws can be a good thing and where they can be bad a thing.

Are you not entertained?

Enjoy the show.
For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

Agreed.  There is often much information available that points to an individual being a potentially violent nutjob, before said individual ever acts.  I just wish something worthwhile could be done when folks like this pop up on the LE radar.  What that something would or could be that does not infringe on basic civil liberties, I haven't a clue.

Therein lies the problem. What appears in hindsight as proof of one nutjob's intent might be another's innocent personal quirk. Short of a fundamental change to presumption of guilt in all cases, there's no way to know until the action occurs.

Photos floating around purporting to show a ANTIFA tattoo on his neck. I've not seen it in any photos I've seen of him and it is been reported the photos are of someone else's neck.

So I will be interested to see if he has an actual psych history.

StyxHex's take on it. Seems a pretty solidly logical analysis.

Fox News reporting that shooter wasn't necessarily known to the police, but the family certainly was. Known history of dysfunction, including multiple instances of police cars at their house because parents were fighting. Mentions of constantly being late to pick up kids after-school sports, so much that calls had to be made to remind them.

Nothing much specific to Dad other than one mention of seeming benevolence towards local yutes. Mom is a piece of work, a complete flake. Known for her temper, for her home being an eyesore, and for being an "energy healer".

Quote
Trilogy Energy Systems is committed to the wellbeing of ALL energy systems. A FULL SPECTRUM HEALING cooperative.

One person has the ability to influence innumerous lives.

Beginning with your healing, you have the ability to emit higher vibrational frequencies affecting all of those around you.

These vibrational frequencies are filled with healing energy affecting patterns of lower vibrations, thus changing thought patterns and cell consistency. The universal frequencies accessed through healing will reach a broader spectrum of space and time, opening up new levels of abilities and resources. These new levels of abundance will not only be accessible in your life, but in the lives of all of those you love, reaching ever so farther than you can imagine.

Imagine intertwining these frequencies with others on a healing path, creating a web of transformation across the universe, healing all of those who cannot heal themselves.
