3-5 minutes wouldn’t have been enough time to kill 25 people, with an average of 6 wounds per victim, in multiple locations, plus himself. That is 150 shots he would have gotten off, not including misses and survivors that were hit. Logic tells me to go with CNN on this one. Then again, who knows how long it was going on before police were notified, but that would also give enough time for a second shooter.

Wow. So you believe CNN over the local police??? Careful -- your true colors might be showing through.

Did you miss the timeline at #13??? I know CNN did.

Shooting started at about 9:35 and he shot himself at about 9:46. That's 11 minutes.

At 45 rounds a minute he had plenty of time to fire off 150 rounds.

“3-5 minutes wouldn’t have been enough time to kill 25 people, with an average of 6 wounds per victim, in multiple locations, plus himself.”

What is your expertise that qualifies you to make that assessment? Have you ever tried to kill 25 people in a confined space with a semiautomatic rifle to see how quickly it could be done? Are there other similar cases that you know of that show how this wouldn’t be possible? Have you attempted to construct a reenactment to see if the timing is feasible?
