    22 y.o. assaults Federal courthouse in Dallas, dies

    Apparently no one injured, only the shooter is dead.

    22 years old, WTF?? What was his motivation? (as if we'll ever be accurately informed)

    White guy and he's dead. So, the media can make up any motivation they want to further the agenda? They will probably label him as a racist Trump supporter to start with.
    life is good.

    Apparently the US Army failed to train this kid how to successfully conduct an assault. I'm thinking they had other plans for him.

    block-head goon. This is what the army will do to any individual.

    Those who join the army need to have their head examined.

    This action is normal for military buffoons part of some mindless borg killing mass.

    Looks like he was surrounded before he even got near the door. Smoke or ricochet is seen flying of columns down the street here.

    He must've missed his target who was entering the courthouse that day and tried to get in to finish them.

    A buddy who was in the Army advised me that he was such a loser he likely missed deployment (because he was so fucking lame) and therefore got assigned to the lowly supply room duty. I've seen another selfie of him in the supply room so apparently that was his job. My friend also pointed out that he lacks all those little insignias/badges on his uniform indicating he was super lame and a numbskull (which got him assigned to the supply room and was not deployed).

    Is that a staple gun and utility knife slung to his ACUs? Maybe the courthouse needed new siding and he was there to hang the tar paper.
    I'm not saying forget what you lost.
    I suppose there's a purpose in pain.
    What we make of ourselves has a cost,
    and it's paid every time we take hold of the reins.

    That’s his ‘kit’ for his supply room duties.
