The guy didn't understand how bombs work apparently. It would be like us tossing a pile of gunpowder on the concrete and a bullet then expecting it to hit a deer. Amateurish doesn't even begin to describe it.

Supposedly the guy was trying to draw attention the his whistle blowing rather than cause a mass casualty event, and chose a Trump property because he knew the media attention would be widespread.

I think even an unhinged Green Beret would know more about explosives.  That he was NOT trying to kill people makes sense in light of the lack of damage he could have caused, the use of fireworks, etc.

The Texas Tower shooter Charles Whitman went of his rocker back in the 60's, but he still knew how to use his rifle.

I'm not claiming to know what the truth is, but I am open to alternative theories that contradict the mainstream narrative.

Which is a rather convenient excuse for ineptitude . Ever notice how conspiracy theories have a lot of those? Everything is always explained in one and always part of the plan.

Picture of New Orleans shooter placing IEDs about an hour before the drive thru.
He then changed clothes and shoes, put on 'mil' outfit, and got into his pickup and drove to Canal/Bourbon.

Anyone buy this time line?

Well if the guy was in special operations as any kind of operator, he did know how they work, at least to know what won't if he intended harm.  But there is a whole lot of ifs attached to this story.

I do agree that conspiracy theories can't tolerate any coincidence or simple dumb luck or they tend to fall apart.

As far as the NOLA guy, seems pretty complex for one guy to handle alone. 

That is how several attacks over seas have happened when not using suicide bombers, they infiltrate place IEDs, then attack, and set the IEDs off when responders come. But that usually takes someone somewhere to be setting them off besides attackers who usually are dead or too occupied to be on watch for them. 
Experience is the hardest kind of teacher, it gives the test 1st and the lesson after.

Courage is knowing it may hurt and doing it anyway.

From my understanding they get info on how IED and VBEDs are made and work, but they're not nearly trained to demo MOS levels. I'd assume it's more of a "Here's what to look out for and here's some very basic disarming/building info" for the theater they're in. Dude was intel, not a sapper. Some intel helps with kicking doors, some hide behind a desk.

This guy had a CIB, and bronze star for action under fire, was apparently on one of those reality shows for operator competition, I don't think he was a Pogue, But we know just about nothing about what he knew and didn't, or what his intent was or wasn't either.  Certainly it looks more than a straight forward tip over point that they are claiming to me.  The NOLA attack guy, they could track his rising radicalism post event, this guy not so much.

According to my Q-anon source ( my wifey) both actors spent time at fort Bragg which is where the MK Ultra program is running.... :banghead:
