Great thoughts ~n/t ~ I've definitely wondered the same things; it would be so helpful to know the approximate number of cars parked behind the theatre either that night or on generally busy nights.
It seems that someone who planned for this so extensively to the point of making sure his car was perfectly located for preparation and a quick getaway and had his apartment wired with booby traps would at least make some effort to flee the scene and never tip off the intended target to the booby trapped apartment.
Like I said I'm pretty certain he committed these atrocities but I have questions...

Ok. Here are a few of my thoughts on the above.. I'll preface this by saying that IMO this individual absolutely is the sole responsible party for plotting, planning, ordering, organizing, and executing the murders.. However I will say that I also can understand why some have questions and have not ruled out the possibility of a second person involved(tho, I did want to ask about the above BBM.. Are you saying you believe it possible that he was not the assailant and somehow framed??.. As I wasn't certain due to the wording not expressing question about an accomplice but rather that possibly he's not the shooter??)
As far as his not fleeing.. I have several thoughts on this such as initially I found it a great possibility that his swat like attire was more for fleeing in plain sight amongst other swat members.. As in we know that initially upon LE making contact with the shooter that at first sight the shooter was thought to possibly be a swat team member due to his attire.. In fact it was only due to the fact that the shooter made the mistake of wearing the groin protection that set off the warning bells of the LE officers..otherwise IMO it's a possibility that he could have in the midst of chaos and high energy and adrenaline been allowed to easy blend in and thereby leave the premisis(SWAT members do not wear groin protectors as it greatly reduces their ability to move with ease.. The fact that the shooter made the mistake of having the groin piece on IMO is what led to further questioning).. Whereas had he not had the groin pIece on IMO there would not have been that alert to the officers which led them to further question the shooter.. Again had that alert not been present IMO I find it plausible that there wouldn't have been the further questioning which is what led to his being arrested..
So, you see in that scenario I find it likely that the shooter may have possibly intended to hide in plain sight as an officer, freely moving amidst the chaos and thereby even likely to have escaped amidst the initial chaos.. All because of his wearing that one piece of protection in the groin area is what led to his demise..
But here is where I begin to question did he really EVER INTEND TO GET AWAY WITH THIS?? As in did he really have any intention of freely leaving century 16 after his reign of terror.. Of course the largest issue that IMO points to NO, THE SHOOTER NEVER INTENDED TO GET AWAY AND FULLY EXPECTED TO BE CAUGHT AND ARRESTED is the obvious fact of his over kill booby trapped apt.. If the shooter intended to commit mass murder, and then as SWAT arrives immediately on the chaotic scene his intent was to hide amidst them in plain sight and thereby able to flee the scene..*
That stops deAd in its tracks when you get to the apt issue.. IT WAS THE SHOOTERS APT.. THEREFOR HE IMO HAD EVERY INTENTION ON EVERYONE KNOWING THAT HE WAS THE ASSAILANT.. He wanted.. He needed to be recognized for the hideous and heinous murders.. That was the plan all along.. If you step back and look at the big picture it becomes crystal clear that the shooter IMO NEVER EVER INTENDED, NOR PLANNED TO FLEE THE SCENE..
The shooters plan IMO went exactly according plan as far as the end result of his being arrested that night.. He IMO NEVER INTENDED OR PLANNED ANY DIFFERENT!!.. There was no he just got caught.. Or why did he screw up and allow himself to get caught that night??.. Questions of if he planned so well then how the hell did he end up IMMEDIATELY CAUGHT AND ARRESTED FOR THIS METHODICALLY PLANNED MURDER AND MAYHEM???
The answer to that is his being arrested absolutely was every bit a part of his entire plan.. There were no mistakes made by him(ATLEAST not as far as his being arrested) the plan was for him to be arrested and unharmed.. He planned it that way.. His apt IMO proves that point as well as proves that he absolutely wanted/needed the recognition.. A Main component of his plan..A main motive wAs recognition for his masterful planning and execution of that plan..
IMO his plan at this point is still going exactly as planned(except IMO for the fact that so very many of us have already figured out what the remainder of his plan is).. As in the way IMO he has plotted/planned to get away with it.. Yet at the exact same time STILL RECEIVE EVERY SINGLE OUNCE OF FULL NAMED RECOGNITION FOR HIS MASTERFUL PLAN.. The way he has planned it is to succeed in both areas..
Sure he couldve planned it whereas to slip away and get away with it.. But what Jimmy desperately needed and is *a main component and motive for the entire event IS NAMED RECOGNITION.. He needs his name to be Known that he is the one who brilliantly planned such(in his mind).. Planned it to a tee to where he could fulfill that most desperate need/want of having his name recognition as well as his "getting away with it".. In playing it all the way out thru the media and the court of law.. Both are nothing but pawns in Jimmys long thought out plan.. He full well expects to have achieved BOTH OF HIS DESPERATE NEEDS..
His full name known as this mass murderer to go down in history along with a long term plan to eventually get away with it by using the media/courts to his benefit along with his use of severe and debilitating MI to not end up with a needle in his arm..
For now Jimmys plan is still on course..Tho IMO no doubt he'd not at all counted on just how truly difficult life behind bars could be.. IMO that's one piece of his plan that he could have no real way of preparing himself for and it just may a piece that turns to work against Jimmy.. Only time will tell about that..
All jmo.*
