A grainy image of his face drew comparisons to Hollywood heartthrobs. A jacket similar to the one he’s wearing on wanted posters is reportedly flying off the shelves. And the words written on the bullets he used to kill a man in cold blood on a sidewalk on Wednesday have become, for some people, a rallying cry.
Four days after a gunman assassinated a top health insurance executive in Midtown Manhattan and vanished, the unidentified suspect has, in some quarters, been venerated as something approaching a folk hero.
Again, that makes no sense. We know what he looks like and surveillance cameras are everywhere. Are you suggesting the copycat would somehow do some sort of Face/Off thing with the killer?
We have no idea what he looks like. The pictures are of a guy with a different jacket. They’re the ones who claim that’s the guy, and handsome white dudes are a dime a dozen in the city. There’s still no reason to trust they showed us the right guy.
Dude, your conspiracy theory is going way too far here. Use some Occam’s Razor.
Dude. I’m not saying one way or the other. I’m just saying that the conspiracy machine is gonna churn up reasons why they might have lied, no matter who they pin it on.
You think they’ve finally let the jet fuel steel beams go after all these years? There’s no reason why the conspiracy machine is ever gonna accept that they got the right guy. Your insistence that it makes no sense is utterly irrelevant to conspiracy theorists.
Yes, people come up with stupid conspiracy theories all the time, but you were saying it was a conspiracy. I’m not sure why you’re claiming you didn’t:
That’s not what the “conspiracy machine” churned up. That’s what you churned up. You even said “we” multiple times. You are the one doing the “jet fuel can’t melt steel beams” here.
Yeah, I’m the only one saying this stuff.
They haven’t caught anybody yet. I gave you examples for why the public (we!) might have reasons to doubt whoever they put on display. I was explaining how he’s not unlikely to become an uncatchable folk hero. I used the word “myth” for chrissake.
I get that nuance does not always come across well in text online. May I suggest that you may not have fully understood what I was implying?
Whether you’re the only one or not, you just said in the previous comment that these were not your conspiracy theories, they were crazy ones like the 9/11 conspiracy theories that other people will come up with.
Now you’re back to promoting the conspiracy theories yourself.
So, again, you’re the one doing the “jet fuel can’t melt steel beams” thing in this case.

So are you saying it or are you not saying it? Make up your mind.
Sweet Jesus, you’re impossible.
Plenty of people already do not believe that the handsome guy was the shooter. It’s all over this place. The jackets don’t match.
Nobody wants him caught. It’s all over this place.
I was speculating on what might happen with all this in the near future, regardless of what you might think makes no sense.
I don’t know if they’ll really catch him. But I do think that plenty of people will not accept their claim.
No. You weren’t speculating. You were making claims. I guess I’ll have to quote you again:

Again, make up your mind. Do other people, not you, believe this or do you also believe it?
You are bizarrely inconsistent and are apparently very willing to pretend you didn’t say things you said.
