I was pointing out the blood to casing relationship. At first I thought it was strange they were clean then I had to think about it.

Also, if you're going to start calling me out for posting things after someone else posted them, I could have called you out already but I don't.

I'm aware not everyone browses /pol/ daily like I do :snooty:

I think it definitely has positive aspects. The internet free-for-all has a better chance at getting us the truth than waiting days for media gatekeepers to control what we can see and hear. People will post jokes or hoaxes but the edited photos can be identified as fakes eventually even if they fool people at first glance.

This guy had some reason for what he did and I hope we'll find out what it is but the more time that passes the less believable the story will be.
Like I said its not mostly positive and I think a lot of folks think it is or don't think about the intentional or unintentional consequences of not every having context about anything really. This is the Post Truth Era. Are there good qualities to the internet? Of course. However, we haven't even scratched the surface of all the effects of the so called Age of Information. Also there is no reason to not believe there will be software or that there already is that can distort images and voice recording to edit whatever message you want and to alleged that is from whomever you want it to be. That's the "wild west" for you. Brave New World indeed.
That software already exists. It's impressive. The sky hasn't fallen.

Keep telling your self that when it does. And to think there are not going to be unknown (to you or I or anyone) consequences to this new media we interface with constantly and to the ability for the rabble to "express" themselves is the epitome of hubris.

I picked up and he asked me, " How did you like the Reformation, Thirty Years War, and the those wonderful "revolutions"? I said in retrospect they seem god fucking awful.

Been away, catching up. Some of this may have been posted.

Shooter was put on Diazapam a couple months ago ....can cause suicidal actions
Room service records show 2 people in the room.
Eye witnesses say definitely shooters on the ground, keeping people in the kill zone......some video seems to show that.
Room appears to be set up to broadcast.
