I don't feel that way (regarding your journal entry). There have been some lies, but there have also been some of the most amazing truths.

As far as your comment... er, um... I'm mixed. First, I've stayed up all at and after parties both without the use of drugs (meaning only alcohol), and completely sober. Unless you meant that comment sarcastically, that's just a bizarre and uninformed thing to say.

According to police reports, the only things found in the house were alcohol and some marijuana (no idea on how much). I don't really know Seattle at all, but from what I'm told the after-hours serves a dual-purpose - not only the post-event chillout/keep the party going, but also a place to kick back until the buses start running again.

People actually are talking to the police. The sad truth of this is that the shooter didn't know anyone in the electronic music scene. Didn't appear to have come with friends, didn't appear to have been to other events previously. The only theory that's starting to take any shape right now is that his original intentions were to have gone batshit insane at the party, taking out many many more people. But there was both visible security at the door, and there were metal detectors in play. So he waited and bided his time.

No girlfriends or local friends have surfaced - he was a loner pizza delivery dude, a transplant in a big city who didn't seem to connect to anyone. I'm concerned about the spray-painting, on the off chance it's connected to some nutjob movement to cause harm to the underground music/art scene, or to burners, or to any other group for that matter. I'm concerned that this guy may have hung out with other friends who are equally disturbed, and that they may be out there getting ready for their chance to wreak havoc.
