Very interesting.
Could be a connection... but why theaters and malls?

I would have thought it was because that is the best area to get a group of American civilians together in one place.
If you are going after the 'public' at large, your going to go where the public congregate.

Oh? Why did people leave their purses and strollers and even more inconceivable men's wallets and car keys also?
I say that because it was a male "witness" who said that he and his gf left their wallets there and ran to a nearby apartment complex ( where they did not live).
Weird phenomena going by the sheer number of cars left after the incident in the parking lots.
Were they ordered on buses and driven away in some cases by LE?
So, I heard he posted on FB that he was going to Hawaii??
Jacob Tyler Roberts, 22, told co-workers he recently inherited money from a relative and he was going to use that money for his move to Hawaii.
Arianna Johnson, an acquaintance of Roberts, told The Oregonian that he was supposed to fly out last Friday or Saturday but missed his flight.
Sansburn said the pair had dated for nearly a year but had broke up over the summer. Throughout their relationship, she had never seen him act violently or get angry.
The last time she saw him, which was last week, he "seemed numb," and she didn't understand why, she said.

Even those 2 reports conflict each other. First article, he's a fairly happy guy, wants to be a fire fighter, going to a comm college, loves his job per FB, friends describe him as normal and likeable
Then the video has him as homeless more or less, sold everything, moving to Hawii (how could he afford a ticket even, if he quit his job a month ago??) and friends said he was acting strange as of late, possible drug use.
Thanks for the post. Just goes to show how not only is this scenario so sloppily covered, but more importantly the army of disinformation is working overtime.

It wasn't just posted on FB, apparently he told several people, including a bar tender at the Space Room bar...

Several people mentioned earlier in this thread that he had just gone through a break up with his girlfriend. I don't know about everyone else, but I interpreted that as it happened within the last couple of days, which could have led to a breakdown. Well, it wasn't as recent as I thought. They broke up months ago, over the summer.

Anyone notice the ends of the shooter's hair look photoshopped in the one picture that's being shown a lot? May not be anything. Maybe they took a picture of him with family or friends and cropped them out but anyone who has experience with photoshop or any kind of photo doctoring knows the hair is one of the hardest things to get right.
