    I was thinking there’s no proof he didn’t do this to impress Jodie Foster. We may never completely understand

      He did it… for Johnny. This is like that movie Citizen Kane where you later find out Rosemary was a sled, but we’ll never find out who Johnny is, cause, like, he’s dead.

      Context It’s quite prescient because he did indeed catch the bullet right in the ear.

      Hopefully he wrote something down somewhere that gives us an idea to his motivation, but you’re absolutely right. We may never know. From the little bit that has come out about the shooter, it sure seems likely to be a typical case of a young man feeling isolated and angry at society. I’m certainly not convinced that politics had anything to do with it at this point.
