For those who don't want to know the shooter's name, cover your eyes! It's being reported. It's a shame that it is a factor to the deranged mind of these men

It's confusing to me how he was shooting while driving. I've never shot a gun, but doesn't a gun of the type he used take two hands?
Those with some experience, please chime in with how you think he managed this.

Call me a "conspiracy nut", but I think that there is more to this situation.
They didn't specify what the background check was for.Odessa spokeswoman: Shooter is Seth Ator
U.S. Rep. Tom Craddick told the Reporter-Telegram he had previously failed a background check.
Thank you. Young adults, call your mom back when she calls you asking if you are safe from a gunman on a rampage!
I’m actually surprised he hasn’t called me, his nickname for me is safety mom. He knows how I worry. He once joked that I got him safety cones and flame retardant clothes for his birthday.
Thank you for sharing this......I saw all that earlier while sleuthing him.......At that time Ator was a divorced Father of 9, Democrat Socialist and a Pagan Wicca worshiper..............I found all that a little hard to believe. Hopefully his true history will eventually surface.....mooLest this adds to any possible conspiracy theories, I wanted to mention something. I don't think we're supposed to cite mylife here, because it's often inaccurate, but there was a page there for the gunman. Since his name was released today, people have been editing the page, apparently trying to connect the gunman with whatever groups they apparently hated (Jews, Hispanics, Native Americans, African Americans, Democrats, Republicans -- it kept changing) as well as adding weird or nonsensical things. People were also adding reviews whose goal was to connect the gunman to one of those groups. I called the company to complain.
It took a while to make myself understood -- the woman who answered was clearly in another country and hadn't heard about the shooting. (At one point she said I should tell the person whose bio it was to contact them. I explained that he had been shot dead by police.) Finally she consulted with her supervisor and removed the profile. I hope it stays gone -- there is no need to add insults (to others) to injury and death for too many. JMO

That's only somewhat of a relief, lol!I don't have a habit of shooting while driving, but I'm no stranger to steering with my leg.
My son has been working in Odessa for the last two months. But thank goodness he was with me here in Dallas area yesterday.I know how you feel. Our youngest daughter lives and works in the Virginia Beach area and when that shooting happened recently, I could not get in touch with her or her husband. I did not know about the mass shooting until later, so it was about 8pm when I started trying to phone them. She works for a company that has her at that facility sometimes and she could very well have been there. Fortunately she was not there and her hubby had taken her out for the evening. They are so cute, turning their phones off while on Date Night. Just, Please, Check The Phone once in a while.
Good grief!! What kind of website allows anyone to change some other person's profile info. SMHThe last time I checked I got Caucasian, Scientologist with 9 kids and drove a Tesla. I found it mildly amusing to refresh the page and see the changes.
Fwiw, the info posted here was apparently correct. Looks like he was from Lorena and attended high school there. He was most currently a resident local to the crimes.The last time I checked I got Caucasian, Scientologist with 9 kids and drove a Tesla.

I've never shot one while driving but to me it's much easier to handle than my 357. Lighter weight and not as much kick. I haven't shot one one handed but IMO it wouldn't be all that difficult.It's confusing to me how he was shooting while driving.

A job? Buying a gun?
