Bizarre video. I'm sure YouTube will censor it shortly.
I am still looking for the perfect apron, one with reinforced knee areas would be perfect.

The video in the original link was an hour old. I have a hard time believing he posted it after he did this and then went on a car ride and got caught. Or maybe posted it while he was driving?
Maybe there are more people involved.
What is the significance of that symbol circling in the middle the whole time? I am not keyed up on my symbology.
Also, listening to the video if the actual shooting, it sounds like a bump stock type of shooting. Very regular shots, too regular to be finger pulls but not fast enough for full auto like the haltom city shooting was. Could have been one of those trigger systems that shoots on the pull and release, but again, it was a little too regular for finger pulls.

Good job North Chicago PD. Fox reported a NCPD street cop spotted his vehicle, confirmed the plate and chased him down.

I've been out of pocket all afternoon/evening and come home to this. No way this wasn't planned. Too damn convenient just to be a nut job. Just watched the video and heard the shooting. That had to be an altered gun. Still a long ways to the mid-terms.

That was a slower rate of fire than an AR being bump fired with a rubber band.

Any bets that the MSM covers up the Antifa and Anarchist links? Is there any special meaning to the 47 tattoo?
for every stereotype there's a prototype don't be the prototype

So now they're showing him dressed as Waldo at a Trump rally and pics of him draped in Trump flags. Maybe Liz will invite him to the Jan 6 hearings. What a setup.

I haven’t hear any reports as of yet at to the type of weapon that was used just that it was supposedly high power. However, I did see an interview this morning with the mayor of Highland Park, IL and she stated that she was told that the weapon was bought legally. This was after she was asked about a ordnance that she signed outlawing “assault weapons” in 2013. She didn’t want to talk about that.

If it wasn't an AR, then what? Maybe a mini-ranch?

Reports are the ATF is urgently tracking the rifle’s history, given it wasn’t a ghost gun. How do you track a gun? I was told many times that they would have to go through paperwork once they figured out where the gun came from and dig up old purchases and that there was no digital record of serial numbers attached to a buyer. Maybe that isn't true but that is what a gun dealer told me and was in an article on line about gun purchases.

It will be interesting (I guess) to see what possible 'motives' this shooter had, if investigators are able to get him to talk.
No doubt there will be background info forthcoming.
But as soon as I heard of this incident and before seeing photos or hearing any other information, I told my wife, "you watch, this will be yet another....Misfit, Outcast, Freaky little Bastard".
I'd wager...no lack of warning signs.
Spartans ask not...how many, but where!

Maybe that isn't true but that is what a gun dealer told me and was in an article on line about gun purchases. I’m fairly certain a gun can be tracked from the manufacturer to the original purchaser. Serial # to manufacturer # shipped to FFL holder per manufacturer. This may include several dealers. Wholesale/retail FFL holder has to record all sales with # attached including purchasers ID. After that it’s anyones guess. You can’t reasonably track a person to a gun without auditing every FFL holders paperwork.
