Obviously they left secret codes so the Conspiracy theorists could figure it out...jeez.
Do you people really not see how ridiculous you sound?

Hello ATS.. My girlfriend and I were in the mall when the shooting happend. As she works in the mall, I met her durring her lunch break and we went into the food court to sit down and eat. A few minutes later he started shooting. He was on the second floor just outside of the Macy's store entrance and shot nearly 4-5 times in fairly rapid succession followed by a short break, and then more gunshots. From where we were seated, he was no more than 15 feet away. We managed to make it outside through the food court doors and into the crowd of people crying, shaking, some faint and managed to talk to several people immediately after the first shots were fired.
We spoke to a lady who said she was on the same bus he was on. She could describe him, in detail, as wearing all black and wearing some kind of mask with a skull pattern on it. I read today that investigators found his vehicle in the mall parking lot. However, I think it would be a bit of a stretch for the lady I talked to to imagine seeing this guy on the bus and tell a blatant lie in her panicked state. Maybe his car was already at the mall with the weapons, prior to him arriving; who knows.
I talked to another group of people that stated they saw him walking into the mall with two other people. One in standard army camouflage, and two wearing all black. Talking and listening to people outside, you heard that they saw someone shooting wearing either camouflage or dressed all in black leading me to believe there was more than one person involved. I don't know about you, but I think it would be very difficult to confuse "all in black" with "army camouflage"
The response time of local law enforcement was incredibly fast. We managed to exit the building in under 5 minutes and as we were leaving multiple armed law enforcement officers were already arriving and securing the scene. Within about 20-25 minutes the roads were blocked and various agencies were on site assisting.

They confirmed that his fingerprints matched prints in a law enforcement database, though they did not find any crimes he was convicted of.
Can someone explain to me how someone, without a record, has their fingerprints in a crime database?????

I have been saying for months that they were going to step it up with these mall shootings. The reason being, malls are supposed to be a safe and secure place for the public to enjoy themselves, once mall shopping starts to become a danger, followed by more shootings in other various public places, then Obama and Hills can step in and say it's time to do something about guns. I have predicted that this is coming, and it will be. How fast did that swat team show up? About as fast as they did the theater shooting.

The lady we spoke to said she was on the bus sitting near a man dressed in all black and wearing a mask. I wasn't actually on that bus, I can't confirm her story.. but I did speak to her about 10 minutes after the first shots were fired in the parking lot outside of the theater. Not being able to clearly see or misinterpreting your environment durring a chaotic situation is understandable. It's hard to misinterpret what you saw while sitting calmly on the bus. I'm not trying to mislead, falsify fact or otherwise. It's simply one of the many conversations I personally had with people minutes after the shooting started. For all I know, one person drove a car, another took the bus, and they met at the mall. Who knows. Just relaying the information i've been given.

So, every time a disgruntled employee shoots his co-workers....every time a lonely geek with no girlfriend who was teased in high school shoots up a mall/movie theater....every time an ex-husband in the middle of a custody battle shoots his ex and her family and husband.....that's Obama trying to take away your guns?
What happened to free will? Are you saying these people don't think for themselves? Let's think about that for a minute. Just because you do not like the President, doesn't mean he sends subliminal messages telling you what breakfast cereal to eat or orders you to shoot up public places. Get a grip, people!edit on 12-12-2012 by Unidentified_Objective because: (no reason given)

Is there a difference between a crime data base and a regular fingerprint database? I worked for Edward D. Jones a long time ago and had to get fingerprinted before I could start work. Maybe the guy once had a job requiring this.
