Interesting to hear her describe his "uncontrollable urges" to hurt people. One doesn't need to be created by Greenbaum doctors in a psychiatric ward in order to have those kinds of feelings created within the susceptible ones IMO.

There's been a lot of divisive rhetoric on Twitter around these shootings. I keep hopping around and pointing out on posts about the shootings and mentioning the possibility that they aren't what they seem. Little jabs at the hydra of lies and misinfo on Twitter and elsewhere online feel meaningful to me.
Love referencing the history of the FBI handling terrorists. Just think of how hard they must work to keep things covered up and some nobody on Twitter comes along and pokes holes in their near-perfectly manufactured terror with allusions to what they're doing. The comments are getting handfuls of likes, so there's definitely folks out there thinking about these events skeptically.
Granted, it's likely not all of these events are being directly handled by human agencies. However, when the FBI takes over an investigation (like in El Paso) it's an indicator that adds weight to that hypothesis in that particular case.

That's one of the entrances to Dillard's. People ran there from the Walmart, and ABC reported that police directed them first to JC Penny, and then outside. Far as I can tell, there were no reports of injuries taking place in Dillard's. Guy on the right looks like SWAT, guy on the left looks like he's wearing what some of the cops on the scene were wearing (blue t-shirt, black bulletproof vest, khaki cargo pants). You can see them in this video:
So I'm guessing these were cops clearing the store after the shootings had taken place.

Man attempted to attack multiple people with a knife in busy Sydney streets. Reports from the scene claim he looked mentally ill and he was screaming "Allahu Akbar", although police later say they found a USB on his person with white supremacy material... He stabbed one woman in the back (and a man can be heard in one of the Twitter video's stating this). He was taken down by a number of citizens who held a milk crate over his face whilst waiting for police to arrive. Also that day a woman's body was found in an apartment which may or may not be related to the incident.
Warning: The Twitter videos contain strong language.

Knife attack by man screaming "Allahu akbar" in Sydney, Australia

Australian police and witnesses said a knife-wielding man yelling "Allahu akbar," or "God is great," attempted to stab several people in downtown Sydney on Tuesday before being arrested. At least one woman was brought to a hospital.
Police said later that "all the evidence points to" a man with mental health issues lashing out, but they would not rule out any potential motives as the investigation was still at an early stage. Given the information they had, however, they said the incident was not being classed as terrorism and that the suspect was believed to have acted alone.
Witnesses say the man, wielding a long knife, tried to stab multiple people near a busy intersection. New South Wales state police said in a statement that the man was caught and the woman was in stable condition.
Not far away, the body of a woman believed to have been an acquaintance of the detained suspect was found in a home.
A witness told reporters the man was screaming comments about religion before yelling to police that he wanted to be shot. Police said he used the Arabic phrase "Allahu akbar." However, police later said the man also had in his possession a thumbnail USB drive containing information related to white supremacy.
Asked by a reporter whether the conflicting religious references suggested to him a mental health problem at the root of the crime, New South Wales Police Commissioner Michael Fuller said, "certainly all the evidence points to that" at this stage of the investigation.
The incident brought the central business district of Australia's biggest city to an early afternoon standstill, the Reuters news service reports.
Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison praised members of the public who helped subdue the suspect during the attack.
Reuters quotes Police Superintendent Gavin Wood as telling reporters in Sydney the woman was stabbed in the back but her wounds weren't life-threatening and that the attack on her seemed to be unprovoked.

Contrary to popular opinion, mass shootings by right-wingers are not being driven by Donald Trump’s sometimes obnoxious political rhetoric. One of the principal drivers, if not the principal driver, of right-wing terrorism in recent years is, ironically, the political left itself. The left-wing...
