Dunno about numerology stuff... never paid much attention to it, but I'll tell you the numbers that appear strange to me...

I'm an avid target shooter... it stretches my imagination that the shooter shot over 100 times (as reported, but not verified) before being shot himself... that takes some time using a semi-auto handgun... esp. considering the shooter took the time and was such a good shot that he actually hit 41 people and some of them several times (that deputy alone was hit 4 times)... either he was/is an incredibly good/accurate shot and a well-trained special ops type person, or the numbers just don't add up IMO... it's one thing to shoot 100 times at a range at stationary targets, but it is a LOT different shooting while moving around at targets that are running, ducking, etc. and with a lot more distractions, etc. than shooting targets at a range.

Killing/wounding that many people with a handgun in a short time while moving around and the victims also running, etc.? And for some of that time also being shot at, too? I'd almost bet that at least some of the victims were hit by "friendly" fire rather than the shooter.
