The cops responded to a call saying "Yeah I think he's here," believed it and arrived in force within the time a person spends at a MacDonald (was the suspect playing in the ball pit?) and arrested him, finding the incriminating gun and silencer he had no reason to keep, along with a "manifesto"" which is a rarity among sane people but shooters have to have one according to cops?
Sounds reasonable.
Jfc I am so tired of conspiracies asserted so confidently anytime anything interesting happens. Can y’all just wait for like two goddamn seconds for information to come out instead of letting XXpatriotXx or whoever on YouTube and tiktok whip y’all up into a frenzy? Or are we all just going to start acting like tinfoil hat rightwingers desperately trying to make their lives sound more interesting?
Firstly, I haven't been whipped up by anyone, I came up with that myself, before I read anything else.
Secondly, yeah, I was somewhat hasty.
Lemmites are the perfect demographic for brain rot conspiracies like this. The perfect combination of ego and below average intelligence.
Me to a T.
Yup, and you fit right in with the rest of us!
Theory I heard is that he wanted to be arrested, because he has a plan, maybe using court as a stage for making a public statement.
And that he may even tell the mcDonald worker to rat him out and collect the money.
Probably far from truth, but it would be cool if all that was true.
I'm not normally one for conspiracy theories, but there's a massive motivation for the US government to find anyone who looks about right and is disgruntled and then frame them, or plant evidence on someone they found through an illegal means. The US surveillance state uses parallel construction all the time to hide the actual (often illegal) ways they find someone.
Plus, if you don't have a suspect, the message to all the proles out there is that you can kill CEOs and get away with it. The internet just showed that the only reason the working class aren't doing The Purge on CEOs is fear of consequences. That's a critical threat to the ruling class, and they will 100% frame, pay to take the fall or blackmail someone into it rather than not convict somebody.
It doesn't line up at all that he brought a handwritten copy of his manifesto plus his fake IDs and his recently used murder weapon to a Macdonalds. Especially after being careful about escaping the city, and the amount of practice he had to smoothly clear the jams when he shot Thompson shows this was premeditated.
Unless he takes the jury stand and uses it to verbally blast the ruling class and try to incite more violence, this ain't the shooter IMO.
