I haven't seen any information whatsoever that points to any sort of motive or the race/religion of the attackers. It might end up that this is ISIS linked, but honestly, saying that it is now is beyond ridiculous.

Yeah, not sure why everyone is suddenly jumping to ISIS. I'm not saying it's not ISIS-related, but we have literally no information about the identity or description of the shooters other than they're wearing "some type of military-style gear."

Doesn't seem like an act to create maximum carnage.  Nobody blew themselves up.  It sounds like the one to three gunman (reports are getting vaguer) ran in and out in a short period, like under three minutes.

Doubt it. ISIS chooses symbolic targets. There is nothing symbolic about a random office building, no matter if it's a service center for people with mental health issues. ISIS wouldn't use wrong door either.

Unless the disabled were into publishing biting satire, I don't see the motive.

The attack itself (in/out shooting), not the target. Still don't understand the motive, but the physical attack is not unlike the Charlie Hedbo attack.

A bunch of French people at a concert is symbolic? A Russian plane? ISIS is engaging in psychological warfare, and targeting a random office building is a good way to do it.

Targeting youth in a very touristic city, listening to "evil" music, trying to destroy the innocence of the youth.

Targeting air travel and tourists to the Arabic World.

Here, it's less obvious (for now).

We have so many mass shootings that we've stopped giving them names. Sad state of affairs.

I don't even feel like making some big anti-gun post because I know this won't be the straw that finally breaks the camels back.

I've been in many a music venue that I've thought was a death trap, though I've thought more fire than terrorism.  Planes are obvious choices, especially after Russia joined in on the bombing of ISIS.  Could be that the shooter(s) were terrorists or wannabees, just not very sophisticated ones (not that the ISIS ones are all that skilled either).

Good TV, certainly. I haven't seen a police chase on TV since my freshman year of High School.

Very troubling and disturbing stuff :/
