I wonder why he did it?

#2 Her brother, Dustin, told the Kansas City Star that Bono was "mad more than anything."

She's in good company. Mindless government inclusion, diversity, affirmative action, and denial home to roost once again. Could it possibly be a ........"hate crime." No one mentioning that of course. The 9/11 experience has taught our leaders very, very little. Western society appears to be on 'life support.'

#3 Some aspects of the story that still don't 'fit' to me:
1) How is a guy who supposedly didn't even like to go the the range for his minimal qualifying manage to become so proficient as to be able to fire so effectively?
2) How did a guy manage to fire two handguns until empty, reload both, and continue firing while in a room full of trained and fit soldiers? I'm not even talking about who was armed and shooting back - it had to be close range where people could just charge him and tackle him (like those kids did at that school in Oregon a few years back.) Was his target group a unit of mental health professionals and not regular soldiers?
3) How did the flagrant warning signs get ignored?
4) Some of the wounded may have been cross-fire casualties, and MPs and SWAT people were among the victims - meaning the episode took a considerable length of time, and he could not have been catching later victims by surprise, nor should he have been more heavily armed than the counterattackers by then. Did he have human shield hostage(s)?
5) The 'cousin' who was interviewed by phone on Fox last night ended his call very abruptly - was he real or fake?
