I can see multiple hand guns being brought up and positioned around the room. I'm sure he was paranoid that the authorities might have been on to him and he probably wanted to be prepared for the door being bashed in at any moment. If there are say 4 or more rifles up there, I'd have serious questions as to why because the plan of another person or persons taking part would make as much sense, if not more, as anything else.

Dude planned this out and reserved a sniper's nest of a room with a perfect view of an outdoor concert event where he could deal maximum damage. This "he snapped" narrative doesn't sound right to me. He had to have had a rationale for what he did. People that snap don't plan something out like this. People that snap get fired from their job and go home and come right back with a gun and start shooting. Sure he was crazy as is anyone who decides to become a mass shooter/murderer, but he was sane enough to plan all this out (I'm guessing months in advance) and implement it perfectly. I'll be very interested in the details that surface in the coming days as I'm sure most are.
