Jihadists are doing it with bombs.

Holmes was prepared to do it with bombs too.

Pretty clear Holmes was trapped in one of the video game industries most famous meme sets:

.

Narrator: In A.D. 2101, war was beginning.

Captain: What happen ?

Mechanic: Somebody set up us the bomb.

(spoken in the Flash animation as Someone set up us the bomb)

Operator: We get signal.

Captain: What !

Operator: Main screen turn on.

Captain: It's you !!

CATS: How are you gentlemen !!

CATS: All your base are belong to us.

CATS: You are on the way to destruction.

Captain: What you say !!

BTW, Holmes was actually a mad bomber. His bomb could have killed hundreds of people ~ mostly by fire.

We must never forget that, and don't give him credit for not succeeding in the full scope of his attempt. That'd be like letting the JIhadis off the hook because they only killed 3,000+ Rather than the 100,000+ they intended.

This guy is one bad dude.

I read somewhere that most of the casualties were from Holme’s shotgun and not the AR-15 which jammed. Cannot find the link now.
Certainly if this was true the media would love to suppress this information as it doesn’t fit into the “Assault Rifle” meme.

“The Shootout at the OK Corral” was pretty violent.
