If no alcohol means Muslim,  he'd have to include himself in that group...

This guy is not a terrorist. He had a complete mental breakdown. There's no ideology behind this. He shot people strictly for sport. It was the ultimate high stakes game for him.

Yup. Not surprising considering a life of seemingly endless gambling.

High stakes game? What was the prize? What was there to win or lose?

Also, a very well planned breakdown. Not a snap situation.

I keep hearing over and over that no laws would have stopped this. How about laws to save lives?
1 - If he only had 20 round magazines would that have saved lives?
2 - What if he didn't have bump stocks and had to fire SA only, any lives saved there?
3 - What if he did get his hands on tracer bullets? How many more would have died?
I just found a new supply of forks!

You ever heard of him before last week? That's what he won.

Correct. Not a snap at all. A slow, steady descent into madness over decades.

With the amount of money and determination he had, there would probably be nothing stopping him from buying a legal automatic gun. He had no need to, so didn’t. Also, if 20+ round magazines were made illegal would it still be too hard to get? Heck, guns can be bought illegally in any city so a gun accessory should be even easier.

Edit: If HCM became illegal someone would make a free 3D printing file anyone can make at home.

Meh. Show me one sign of madness that he portrayed in the past few decades.
Everyone that knows him says he went 0 to 120 in 2.2 seconds.

It sounded like a once a month event, nor would I consider it crazy.
He made big money it became a job.

How many people stare at a computer screen for 14 hours straight for 6 days a week for less money?

If that was the case then why didn't he get tracer rounds? He would have killed many more. This is the problem with the discussions. The answer is always that would not have done anything.

He did get tracer rounds but didn’t use them.
Possibly because they would’ve found him quicker.

From what I heard he did get his hands on tracer rounds. And even without those huge guns he could’ve put some of the explosives in his plane & caused a lot more carnage.
