Maybe they wanted to be shielded from the noise and wanted to concentrate. We may never know. It is true they are easily led, that I agree with but unfortunately the path they are going down is one with no rational end for them or for the society if they were to be successful.

Conner betts ?
All the first reports but here’s this.
It was school assignment. Field work. Will get good grades for ear muffs, eye protection, handling the weapon. Not a gamer cause you never wear ear muffs in virtual land.

Nancy Pelosi pledges Dems will own August

That is the second thought/idea that went through my old mind.
My first thought was Gibb’s Rule #39, there are no coincidences at this level.
Two separate attackers in separate places using ear protection devices in the same time period.
