EDIT: According to this, the dude in the meme is not the actual shooter. I haven't seen any legit sources one way or another. It's just a meme, please leave this guy alone.
Or get him in touch with Hawk T'ua Girl. Either way, he deserves it.
It's been pointed in several places already, but: That's not the guy. The one in the surveillance camera footage had a jacket without these high front pockets.
Agreed. Hopefully the dude gets a FAT payout for being publicly harassed by the police.
I'm sure the police will apologize and pay him handsomely. Also pretty confident tonight is the night I will be fellated by a super model.
I told you I cancelled our date, I have a toothache.
Pics or it didn't happen
Not the most accurate thing, but at least the backpack is correctly identified. The hoodie, shoes, etc unsure of. 
I suspect the backpack is the only correct one because it's so obvious, and then the others are just the meme riffing on it not being a cheap backpack.
If I had money to burn I'd be buying that backpack tbh
All of those items except for the suppressor are incredibly overpriced crap.
From what I know of suppressor prices (with legal suppressors requiring literally all of the paperwork and the filing fees to go with it), that suppressor seems like the best deal in the meme
Edit: Well, the second best deal.
Are there really shoes that cost that much? And people buy them?
There are shoes that cost 10x that much and people buy them. Hell, Kanye West sold plain white T-shirts ten years ago for $300 each and he sold out in 5 minutes.
It's kind of a shit post, except the backpack. The brown jacket he layered over I think might be a Barbour jacket or trucker jacket.
Those clearly aren't the same shoes. Those identified ones have black lines from the print design literally on the side section we can see the clearest in the security video where his are solid white.
Some are saying it's the Adidas XPLR Path Sneakers in Black/Gray. 
At those prices.... I wonder if the cops are looking at the victim's kids?
I'm fairly confident all of those are wrong. The backpack of the shooter doesn't have the black bits.
Shooter's bag looks like 100% fabric (so he can swap it later or ditch/destroy it). If I were him, it'd be a fairly cheap large fabric bag, with a few changes if clothes and extra backpacks inside. Get on a long-distance bus, change in the bathroom, get off before your stop and do this a few more times.
Also, buy everything from a thrift store. It'd save money and cover your tracks.
Those two pictures don't match. The lower guy is much thinner, and probably taller, than the upper guy. And... we have no proof either of them are the shooter. Spoiler alert, it could be a masked woman who did it. What proof it was a man?
That's exactly what everyone should say to make search more troublesome
His nose doesn't look the same to me. The smiling one has a thinner nose with an uptick and the end. The other one looks wider and has a button nose at the end. I'm no expert though. I'm just looking at two photos.
I think these are two pictures of the guy that it isn't. From a coffee shop or hostel or something. It's just a shitty camera at an awkward angle takes pictures of a guy (actor Timothée Chamalet) with and without his backpack on.
Wear Lycra under it and keep a gas mask handy for the crowd control attacks.
Remember to leave your phone at home
Why the Lycra?
Skin protection. Check out the Hong Kong protestors’ methods. They optimized against crowd control. You can neutralize teargas with heavy gloves and a sealable container with water in it IIRC.
That jacket with "deny,” “defend”, and “depose" stamped subtly somewhere onto it... I'd wear the hell out of that!
Some Etsy seamstress is about to make a killing (metaphorically).
Maybe it's just because I've been playing Stalker 2 but I keep thinking he has the same drip as Strelok from the first Stalker.
First thing I thought of also. With the face of Desmond Miles from Assassins Creed
He could crash at my house. I'd even take the futon
I've had a black neck gaiter for years and a black hoodie for years and I have worn them in my neighborhood for years.
I wore them the other day and waved at a neighbor that drove by and they slammed on their brakes and then sped off. I guess they took my Xmas cheer as a threat. Anyways they had an off duty cop standing in front of their house last night.
mission accomplished ?
Funny thing is, anyone willing to do an extremely targeted killing like this, and get away for so long, must be at least moderately intelligent. If they spent the time being able to figure out when and where he would be most vulnerable, who's to say they didn't spend a similar amount of time learning makeup techniques to cover their true skin tone, or stuffing gauze into their cheeks to change their facial structure, or small tubes in their nose to widen it out, or glue-on eyelashes and color contacts, or putting a rock in their shoe to change their gate (especially good in this case for establishing a false motive and sending the cops in the wrong direction), or learning how to sew and making that jacket out of a trench coat that successfully converts back to a trench at the pull of a string, or making a realistic silicone mask with embedded ultra-bright infrared LEDs that blind cameras (especially night vision) from being able to get an accurate picture.... With a little work, you can find step-by-step instructionals, or entire communities, for all of that.
For all we know, the real killer might be a one-legged dwarf from Zimbabwe with incredible stagecraft skills.
Don't forget to stick duct tape to the bottom of your shoes for a disposable and easy to replace way of hiding your tread prints if working in a muddy or sandy area
Who told you about lil Wayaida??!
All I know is I'm glad to already have next year's Halloween costume sorted
I'm still waiting to see one of those "steal his look" memes lol
What will they call this costume at the Halloween Store?
CEO Killer? 🤔
"The Adjuster" or "Robin Hood (2024)"
The solution
lemmy users remind me of my dog when he growls at someone because they changed their clothes and are therefore a different person
I think there's a healthy dose of remembering all the times it's been reported how police have railroaded innocent people for the sake of a conviction and closing the case, mixed with seeing this person as a modern-day Robin Hood and not wanting him to be identified. The dude could have been wearing a Beetlejuice suit with a face like Sloth from the Goonies and people would still say "that's not him" because he put on a tiny pink cowboy hat.
This man will be an American folk hero in time. And if that thought seems disgusting, I'll invite you to read up on American history.
I have a confession to make.
It was me, Barry.
The smile? That would be great :)
I do like that coat
