I heard that theory. It leaves the ladder purchase unexplained.
They're now saying that there was no ladder at the scene and none of the footage of him wandering around has a ladder.
No ladder clears up how implausible it seemed that someone with a backpack, ladder, and range finder would just be allowed to wander around.

I don't think he had a particular plan.
I think he showed up prepared for several contingencies. That explains why he had a car full of explosives as well as a backpack full of body armor and hundreds of rounds, but then he ended up just taking a few shots on Trump.

No, but the set of explanations changes if he wasn't solely planning on shooting from that roof.
They have footage of him wandering around?
reply
Yeah, from like an hour before the shooting.

That is very suspicious....
Walking around a building and looking up?
reply
Not specifically looking up at the building, just wandering around sort of aimlessly. You probably have to watch some of the coverage to understand why it looks so suspicious.

It is weird. He had been flagged as suspicious 3 hours prior to the shooting and flagged as a threat an hour before.

I thought the ladder was already attached to the roof. Part of the structure. So he didn’t turn up with it at all from what I understood?
reply
I had heard that, but I haven't seen any confirmation that there is such a ladder. That should be easy enough for them to confirm or deny.
