Would not surprise me. With the start of the Muslim Ramadam, plus what took place a few days ago in Bulgeria against a number of Israelis youths, in other words, could this be Iran’s way of declaring war against the USA/Israel/the west.

The graphic of the news report also mentions something about “the other shooter” with no further identifying information. Sounds like there were two?

FBI, via CBS reporter, Pete Williams:

Perp had on him 2 long guns, hand gun
Tennessee license plates on his car, but he was living in the Aurora area

Not releasing name until the name perp gave if verified.

There’s something a little weird about the killed/wounded ratio: in any large-scale gun violence it’s usually about 1:4, not 1:1.4 as here. Could there be some factor in play that hasn’t been reported yet?

Theater was packed and only 1 exit. That is why.

They have information out the yen-yang on this situation and people out here are being kept in the dark. One has to wonder why. This information should be released. I call BS on lone wolf involved. This was too well planned for a lone wolf. Why does the media not release what is known?

Someone needs to look this guy up on facebook or twitter and get screenshots of his pages before they’re scrubbed.

Media now walking back the “Tennessee tags” thing, saying police were seen looking into such a car but it may not have been shooter’s

101st . ."Now saying ‘James Holmes”, age 24"
An earlier comment identifed the shooter thusly:
The captured shooter has been identified as Mohammad Alam, an Iranian immigrant. The identity of the other shooter is still unknown, Oates states. (KUSA-TV © 2012 Multimedia Holdings Corporation) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8t6mSSI3vxM
It's early and details aren't clear, yet I cannot dismiss the link to the start of Ramadan, the auto tags from TN, and the coincidence that the Bulgarian jihadi also carried a Michigan drivers license listing his identity as "Jacque Felipe Martin w/a Baton Rouge, LA address while several reports link him to Hezb'allah.
