The poll is missing the "Piece of Shit" option.

I noticed that the bench in the video posted here...

This one is hard to count shots on, the echo of prior shots is loud enough to blend into successive shots.
...is the same model as the one in the image shared in this post:
I see at least four.
I can only pray that the blood doesn't belong to anyone in the video, but it had to have come from someone. Hopefully they were only injured and-if that is indeed the case-that they recover without complications.

Journalists have been known to mess up, so take this tweet with a grain of salt, but one from CBS is claiming that the family of one of the deceased (named Nicolas Toledo) reached out to them to share a statement along with photos of the victim:

police/coroner press conference: 5 dead adults on scene, 1 died at the hospital, families being notified. at least one critically-injured child was transported to a hospital. "high-powered rifle" is the most the police are willing to say about the gun.
seems like there was an "unsecured" ladder in the alley here that the shooter got up and down from the rooftops by:

So, why do we think that was his twitter? I must have missed it.
 
The sad truth is is that law enforcement, even federal law enforcement are poorly equipped for dealing with sophisticated attacks. Most of the guys they manage to catch are the spergs that post disturbed shit online for years and then publically announce their attacks before they happen. The guys that never post anything in advance and have no prior criminal records or pattern of disturbed behavior are rarely caught, or if they are it's often luck.

The clear, sensible solution to all this is to abolish the second amendment and outsource our personal safety entirely to organizations that can't find the person who shot 30 people in broad daylight during a parade.
 
That has been the only shocking part of this.
He was on a rooftop. Highland Park is a nice suburb and many businesses were closed meaning that it’s not covered in surveillance cameras the way downtown Chicago is. Sure people were filming but it’s not like they stuck around to try to get the gunman on camera.

It might turn out that there is film of the guy in the background, perhaps carrying a large box or guitar case or something.
