I think this killer was a highly trained soldier.

You know, If I didn't hear of the types and numbers of weapons, I would have withheld judgement.

However, with that being said, having a nearly 50 percent kill/casualty rate is darn near unprecidented!

I couldn't believe that the 'lil ole 9mm and .22 cal. pistols in the hand of a maniac could have killed that many and critically wounded so many. I would suggest that he had so many students in such a small, confined area, that he was able to get alot of head shots.

I would also suggest that this guy had alot of training with IRDs (Immediate reaction drills) with stovepipes, hangfires, and ammo despensing discipline.

I am very, very good with my SIG pistols, however, I can't envision having such a horrific ratio of fatalities to casualties. Had this jerk used an AR 15, not withcounting head shots, my supplication would be that there would be the normal 20 percent KIA/80 percent WIA.

Also, look at the Amish shooting recently, They guy KIA/WIA 50/50 of those amish girls with shotguns with headshots at close range. 5 of those girls are still alive and on respirators. I think one passed recently though.

Exactly; if this guy was a novice he’d have used a shot gun.... he used the most bang for his buck... and did it with precision and cool.... I do not me that in any way out of respect but to make clear that he is/was a terrorist.

My impression as well. This guy had some training. Shooting is one thing. Killing is another. This guy was very effective.
