Without a doubt the happenings in the Aurora movie theater was a horrific event. My heart and prayers go out to the families of the dead and to the survivors and their families that will relive the horror that they experienced. No one should ever have to go through what they did.
Does anyone else besides me marvel at the planning and preparation that maniac went through to accomplish what he did?
He must have been planning this action for some time. Lord knows it wasn't a knee jerk decision to go shoot up a movie theater.
He scoped out the theater.
He purchased the weapons from 3 different stores to minimize the arousal of suspicion.
He purchased level II tactical armor, not an easy feat in todays world of big brother watching every purchase.
He developed the munitions and explosive technology he deployed at his apartment in and effort (in my opinion) to maximize the secondary collateral damage of second wave responders at the investigative level. Lord know what destructive and deadly toxins a neuroscientist could concoct.
He chose a soft target with minimal, controlled escape.
He chose the target according to the venue at the theater so that his attire would not draw attention until it was too late to take action against him.
He choose the soft target with the "No Guns Allowed" mentality of the theater so the possibility of him running into opposition would be minimal.
He deployed flash bang/smoke grenades on either side of the theater to disorient the crowd and to ensure panic.
He was methodical and maniacal in the execution of the plan.
If it weren't for the fact that he is a criminal crazy, some would consider him a tactical genus. He had darned near every aspect worked out for his assault. I don't want to glorify this bastard in any way but you have to admire the planning and execution that went into this heinous assault.
I know, to some I'm a sick bastard for thinking so but get past the emotion and look at the reality of it all. There was some serious planning going on.
