We now know two important facts regarding motive:
1. He was going through a divorce
2. He was fed up with Trump supporters (picture of him at an anti-Trump rally).
Obviously, this man was angry. But he was also embarrassed to be living in a country under Trump presidency. In the end, he decided to show those gun-toting Trump supporters (= country music festival) that their stupid handguns is no match for a fully automatic machine gun mounted in a tower. That their small puny firearms won't protect them. And that maybe they should focus more on making it harder to obtain military-style weapons (like he did himself out of spite) instead of clinging to an ignis fatuus; that their lame six-shooter will make a difference when push comes to shove. Yes, this particular weapon was outlawed, but it didn't matter. USA is flooded with illicit weapons. Time to clean up.
This is irresponsible.
1. He had no political affiliation; nothing shows him at an anti-trump rally at all
2. He was fiercely pro-gun, per his brother, and had multiple guns and a hunting license. Not exactly an anti-gun SJW.
