Maine resident: People knew to 'stay away' from Robert Card
Liam Kent, a Maine resident who is familiar with Robert Card, the person of interest in the Lewiston shootings, said that Card and his family are "gun fanatics." He also went on to claim that people around town knew to "stay away" from the family.
Robert Card is now officially a suspect.

At this stage I doubt he'll be taken in alive but I really hope he gets a chance to publicly profess his support for trump and Q.
I reckon 50/50 he says trump appeared to him in a dream and told him to do it.
I also hope he ties himself to the rest of his fellow lunatics, but they'll simply say he's a Democrat plant or some shit. "Lone wolf" at the very least. It's all so tiresome
Yeah what the hell is up with all these packs of lone wolves?
He already did. His Twitter was public and he followed all those righty terrorist morons.
Canadian Border Patrol is on the lookout for him as well. Here's hoping somebody finds him soon.
I've heard that he'd recently lost a job and a girlfriend. The two locations were places they would go together. He may have been looking for her, just lashing out, or both. So it's entirely possible that his primary motivations were not political.
Clearly, being mentally unstable can cause you to believe very weird things. When those weird things are even tacitly approved of by people, it's a lot easier to start believing them, and slide down that rabbit hole. Extremist politics is one of those kind of things.
He'll continue describing the dream and how Trump told him the next time/place where JFK will appear. And a bunch of people will show up
Nah he will keep himself safe before he sees a camera.
From the video - Card and his associates (family, too?) are described as "right-wing militia." Local law enforcement had to have already been aware of them. That police were all "We have no idea who did this" is absolute bullshit. The moment the first call came in, they had to know immediately who they needed to go find and talk to.
Maybe they knew who to ask first, but I think it would be inappropriate for government officials to publicly point fingers at the "crazy guy" without first asking some questions. Like, for instance, was the crazy guy somewhere else at the time? Nobody wants a repeat of the Richard Jewell fiasco.
If that were the case, they would have said that there were identified persons of interest that they needed to talk to, without releasing those identities publicly.
No, they knew who these well-known local armed right-wing militia people were, and decided to slow walk it for
at least 24 hoursseveral hours.Some of those who work forces are the ones who burn crosses.
Devil's advocate: it's likely there are other militia members in the area, and that many of them are also middle-aged white guys.
And law enforcement officers.
Yeah, dude may have been over of several people who could've gone postal. Kinda like when a sex crime is committed the cops might know likely persons in the area (those with priors) but they still have to check into them to figure out which one or if there's a new PoS they hadn't come across yet
Meal Team Six.
Maine police has done what they always do. He has been hearing voices, he is mentally ill so it’s obviously that and nothing else! but his family and colleagues say his mental health only started to decline this summer, he even had an inpatient stay, and they didn’t take his guns. Let’s ignore the mass exodus of mental health professionals in this state, how Maine police won’t take guns away from clearly unstable people, or how they bully people with known diagnosed mental illness.
Our state has a lot of holes in the system. It feels like it’s on purpose at this point. It’s really hard to have a mental illness here and not be afraid for your safety.
The right wing fully intends to drive this country into the fucking ground and it starts with the types of cops who refuse to enforce legitimate regulations.
That police were all "We have no idea who did this" is absolute bullshit.
If there is an active incident in progress, do you really think it's a good idea for the police to show all their cards immediately?
They have to assume the shooter has access to the same news we do, and if the police can give him a false sense of security during the initial hunt, maybe he'll get overconfident and be easier to find quicker?
As I mentioned elsewhere, when there is an active shooter at large, and a shelter in place order, your immediate duty is to address the concerns of the public. Communicating that you have person(s) of interest that you are seeking to talk to - without identifying those persons - serves that purpose.
Hope they've got sharpshooters around Liam's house.
