Boulder mass shooting suspect identified

Sounds like a muslim person from what I have read so far. IF this is the case, and what sounds like a AR was used, lets hope the truth comes out how he got the AR and his background.

(CNN)[Breaking news update, published at 11:35 a.m. ET]

Ahmad Al Aliwi Alissa, the 21-year-old suspect in Monday's massacre at the King Soopers supermarket in the Colorado city of Boulder, faces 10 counts of murder in the first degree, Boulder Police Chief Maris Herold said Tuesday.
The 10 people who died ranged in age from 20 to 65.

The suspect is a resident of Arvada, Colorado, and has "lived most of his life in the United States," Boulder County District Attorney Michael Dougherty said. He sustained "a through-and-through" gunshot wound to his leg, and was taken into custody at 3:28 p.m. Monday, Herold said.

I agree, but it will make absolutely no difference. The politics of this are baked in and the Democrats already have their bills introduced.

Family is from Syria from latest news update. Your right about the Democrats and bills ready to go. They will hide the truth to push their agenda.

News headlines already talking about the judge that stopped the Boulder law of outlawing "assault weapons" and large cap mags. NOTHING about legalities of purchase etc.

At the same time as Bidet is saying he will stop the death penalty on federal level.
If you're having second thoughts you're two ahead of most Democrats

News states AR purchased 6 days prior. From all the reports I heard, this guy was dead accurate when he was shooting. Seems something doesn’t add up.

Ahmad Al Issa is his name and many people got screenshots of his social media before it was yanked. He was Syrian and was planning attacks on Trump Rallys but never went through with them. His social media is full of leftist propaganda but that's not surprising since every mass shooter in the US has been a leftist.

Do you have a source for that?

Read an article in the wapost that says it was an AR pistol that he used, bought six days before. Doesn't say where or how he bought it though. That info hasn't been released.

Thanks, I was most curious about the targeting Trump rallies part.

Seems this guy was on the FBI radar but did nothing when he comments about attacking a Trump rally. Another news report talked about he lost a wrestling match, quits on the spot, then threatens to kill everyone. Again, nothing done. I watched how they brought him out of the store. Bloody leg, blood on hands and arm. Supposedly shot in the leg. Yet he showed little signs of limping. Looked like a casual walk to the squad car. Seems weird.

The FBI knew of him of him because he was connected to someone else they had investigated.
Trouble with that is the connections don't always add up until after some nutcase acts on his threats.

Yet another reason to take ARs away from middle aged white guys.

What seems weird? Also curious as to your “something doesn’t add up” comment earlier on. What do you suspect is going on here?
