Go away -- -- soon enough for you today new concerns this morning that members of the military.

Where indeed the target by the -- -- and I shooting spree in Nevada the suspect was -- and AK 47 He apparently marching to a restaurant.

And I hop in Carson City, Nevada and opened fire.

On a group of uniform National Guard members all having breakfast at that time mark fuhrman's former homicide -- We have Skype then.

Standpoint -- -- could see you again why.

Have they said.

This is not appear to be a case.

Of terrorism.

Well -- who will win this the shooting took place you have you have National Guard members that seemed to be the nucleus of the targets of a gunman.

So it immediately you are going to try to see if there is a connection to any kind of greater message or terrorist act or groups so.

When they go in there and they also have to be aware that there is a secondary attack once emergency people get to the scene.

So once that's eliminated.

They -- go to the location of the suspect the suspect killed himself.

And you find you try to find electronic communications connection with terrorist groups.

Any kind of statement manifesto or anything because terrorism can't love and -- -- creates terror.

And if it only lives in the mind of the suspect then bit terrorism aspect is lost because that it is in the -- of only one man I.

To mention the killers did too we took his own life after shooting -- national Guardsmen were sitting at the same table we're working frankly on a lot of theories right now mark.

As we try and pieces together and trying figured out.

-- why do you believe this gunman.

Had had had worked this out in advance and knew exactly the pacing of the steps of the place for this attack would take place.

What -- what's interesting if he's not taking a handgun he's taking an assault rifle which is very obvious and you have to actually.

Planned this to bring the assault weapon and enough magazines to carry out the act that you intended to do.

Just a couple miles from the National Guard headquarters there in Carson City I suspect that this was a habit a usual breakfast spot for some -- nation on guards.

Guardsmen in in -- in uniform so it's quite obvious I would suspect that they're gonna find it.

This man had been in that restaurant before or had been observing the -- Guardsmen or if that is the target.

But it seems that that was his focus the national Guardsmen and I suspect that He would have to plan this some time.

Before the act in other words before enough two more quite.

Since here and again this goes through your theory you're thinking -- -- on your own experience in law enforcement.

Why do you think He knew the victims.

Well it.

You know well when we see a suspect commit a senseless act like this when I say no the victims I mean it could've been a fantasy created all together in his own head I mean it could have been a female.

It could've been a stalking situation which the female knew nothing about it could've been symbolic.

Of a change in his attitude towards the war in Iraq or Afghanistan it could've been somebody that He knew.

That had been killed it could've been up fixation.

That.

Only lived inside of his head.

And I think that's the big mystery sometimes where people -- have mental disorders it makes sense to them it just doesn't make sense to us -- when they kill themselves it's lost forever.

-- and one more thing here what why do you believe they were indeed the target sitting there in their uniforms.

At a breakfast place where they may have gone perhaps five days a week for -- we now.

Well you know there there's and they do it an interesting segment of this and of course not being on the scene and not seen a diagram but from the descriptions.

The national Guardsmen were somewhat in the back of the restaurant.

He He goes and He sees.

A girl on a motorcycle He eliminates.

The threat of -- notifying anybody he's got an assault rifle that was.

Quite obvious right there.

But then He goes direct and one of the victims.

At that at the table where the national Guardsmen she was shot in the head in Iraq I would.

Really operate from that center of the Guardsmen and that woman.

That was shot in the head so specific and so deadly it's almost like.

Was that the first shot -- did everything out kind of radiate out from there and once you get the answers about -- you can continue on to the other.

-- we might get some more answers in just about an hour 45 minutes when police spree that's at noon eastern time.

At a Carson city Nevada mark -- thank you for your time sand point Idaho with us thanks bill.
