This guy confuses the f*** out of me — the guy on the left, not the other f***tard, whose evil is almost banal given this new America era. By all accounts, the kill shot was not for the amateur — not impossible, but certainly not for someone who just picked up the rifle the previous day. So, how does a guy who, clearly, did some planning and preparation get so sloppy as to leave palm prints and the murder weapon behind? Did this guy not think to wear gloves at the very least? I would also add that he should have worn a mask (or gaiter), given the ubiquity of cameras, but, then again, this is Utah, so a mask may have drawn more attention. Let’s assume the rifle is actually untraceable — purchased at a gun show or, better yet, a “missing” gun acquired years ago — essentially off the grid. Let’s also assume that he ditched the clothes in the photo quickly (and did not leave them somewhere to be carelessly discovered). I guess my point is this: If you go for the king and kill the king, then you must steel yourself to act accordingly afterwards. That is to say, not freaking out, starting to lose your cool, and making mistakes. Assume you’ll get caught and pay the price. It is only through calm and collected action that you’ll maintain freedom. Sumpreme insouciance is the name of the game.
