Does this whole scenario seem sus to anyone else? There was NOTHING about this on Wednesday and by the time I saw reporting on Thursday they'd already resolved thr situation, somehow captured the guy without killing him (he's got the wrong skin colour to be captured alive), and spun the whole thing into their typical escalation of anti-immigrant rhetoric.
Am I slow in hearing about this, or did they work with this formar governmental collaborator? Seems like a false flag?
Sadly everything that’s happening during this administration is highly questionable, even if it’s 100% legit it will always come with a shitload of questions.

This writer of this analysis seems more responsible than the people using this to "prove" their conspiracy theory. He outlines several possible explanations.
Lol, what the fuck? Literally nothing you said is hard to believe.
It's not "hard to believe" per se, it's just uncharacteristic for how law enforcement in this country tends to work. There are a lot of shootings here for data points, so it'd be interesting to see alive arrest rates for active shooters across all metrics/demographics.
Then maybe we should hold of on pushing conspiracies as facts then.
Not really. Several mass shooters have been taken alive, include the CO moviee theater psycho.
