motive?

I've explained my opinion on sniper as a terrible killing tool, and the effect is creating a maximum amount of fear. the method of his killing, the route he picks and the victim he chose in itself is sending a message. the whole picture's message. as to exactly what it is, I have no idea but to wait for someone more versed on the details of the crime.

but one thing I know is, random killing instills fear, more so with sniper rifle. the terror disablizes the victims' ability to function socially. I dont want you to read as I believe this is a terrorist attack. it may not. it has to be examined through many ways.

first, whats the simplest way of killing and getting away? sniper rifle is a perfect choice. so that leads me to think, how did he get the sniper rifle in the first place? was he a soldier? if so, what rank? has he participated in any combat? whats his family background?

lets say the second case, he is an american hating terrorist. terrorist do not just kill, they send messages along the killing. I am sure a lot of things can be uncovered from a more learnt person, by examing (that leads me back to the above) the methods of the killing.
