One comment regarding it’s authenticity as coming from the hand of the El Paso Walmart shooter: Does the so-called manifesto accurately identify the weapon and ammunition used?
If this really is from the shooter, he sure didnt make good on the “they’ll never take me alive” promise.
He mentions Democrats 8 times... Trump 2 times... So by that count, I guess it’s their fault.
Bmk
“If I m captured, it will be because I was subdued somehow.”
Sure he drove 2 blocks from the scene and surrendered to police PEACEFULLY. At least his wish of dying in the shooting did not happen because now he gets to go to the big house with all his multicultural friends. I am sure he will be a big hit in prison.
What an evil schmuck.

What I don’t get in these situations is how these shooters learn how to handle their weapons, apparently without practicing.
I’ve shot handguns a few times with friends at the range. I’m not really a gun person, but at least for handguns, you can’t just pick one up and start shooting it unless you’ve spent some time learning how to shoot it and practicing how to do it.
I would guess it’s the same for these AK47 type weapons.
The only thing I can think of is part of it is they learn how to handle these weapons by playing the computer simulation games like World of Warcraft.
Dont focus on the words.
Focus on his actions.
He drove over 600 miles.
He stopped at WalMart for some snacks.
He was wearing hearing protection in an extremely dangerous situation.
He meekly surrendered.
He looks Hispanic.
I dont think this was written by this guy. They have him in custody, so they should have some good psychiatrists on the case to untangle this.
The owner of 8chan just said twitter that the shooter did not upload that manifesto on 8chan.
re: “Alleged Text of the Alleged Manifesto of El Paso Walmart Shooter”
Awright ... I’m going to have to chalk this up to “y’all are retarded.”
Per https://heavy.com/news/2019/08/patrick-crusius-manifesto-el-paso-shooting/
Excerpt:
But CNN wrote, investigators are reviewing an online writing posted days before the shootings that may speak to a motive.
By evening, the FBI forensically confirmed that the document was created at 1 a.m. and uploaded less than half an hour before the shooting, it was reported.

The manifesto appeared on 4Chan and 8Chan, was reported to have been posted on Discord and other locations on the internet.
