I understand that the lady did carry a weapon, so while she was a
Democrat..she was a smart one. Unfortunately no one else in the crowd
apparently was as smart.

There are too many loose ends, and the timing of this
incident is far too convenient in the political/budget
cycle, as if it was intended to diver attention away from
the ongoing U.S. socio-economic crisis by creating another
2nd amendment uproar.

One of the many things about this that is red flag is that
only the Congresswoman was a head shot, and it appears
everyone else was a center of mass body hit or collateral
[unaimed] damage. This appears to indicate that the perp
assumed she might be wearing bullet resistant clothing.
Does anyone know if in fact she was wearing or has worn
police grade body armor?

If so, this goes far beyond the level of impulsive
spontaneous outburst and indicates a level of research and
planning not consistent with his apparent mental
capacity/smarts -- IOW he appears to have been one of the
dullest knifes in the drawer, and apparently had/has
extremely limited social/planning skills. Other questions
include how was he earning a living and how did he afford a
high capacity pistol? Anyone know what weapon he used and
what these retail for? Where did he bought it and if he
paid cash?
