I spoke with someone today, who suggested that it would be almost impossible for someone to buy 1,500 rounds of ammo in one lot these days, and also that it was likely no less than about $3,000 spent on the weapons, ammo, and flak vest. I don’t really know about these things, but have no reason to doubt these claims.

So, where would this unemployed high school dropout come up with that kind of money? Has anyone asked/said how he paid for the weapons and ammo, etc.? He doesn’t seem like the type to have a high-line credit card.

Also I have seen varying info as to whether he purchased the gun/s in MARCH or in MAY?

How many reasons would this appear to help the dems?
* Gun control
* NRA convention
* It is TX and Greg Abbott
* Try to generate sympathy for illegals?
* Retaliation for abortion legislation in TX?

Timing related to primaries, end of school year?

How can it possibly be explained that NONE of the LEO dared to go in, to try to save children?

He had a job. The banks give anyone a credit card.

His grandmother had a nice truck and must have had some cash and she gave cash to Ramos.

Stole Grandma and Grandpa’s credit cards or cash, maybe. My Gran had cash stored in the house; she didn’t trust banks.

Hell, I don’t know anybody who doesn’t have a rainy day fund of some sort.

Plus, there are those refillable credit cards you can buy at WalMart for online purchases. It’s an easy way to protect your bank account from fraud.

How does this shooting generate sympathy for illegals?

I seriously doubt that he was wearing a flack vest. Maybe Kevlar (sometimes also called body armor) though...

A Flack vest or Flack jacket is used to protect against fragments from explosives (or anti-air), and is very heavy.

He made the purchases with a debit card drawing money from an account, not a cred card.

Are the 'authorities' investigating the contacts in these discussion sessions? If the FBI are doing that I am very sceptical that a handler will surface.

The rifles were apparently AR platform built by Daniel Defense.
Their “Bare Bones” ARs sell for about $2,000 each.
1,500 rounds of 5.56 is $1,000 minimum.

Why a conspiracy aimed at primaries?
