He is a narcissist, above any sense of self preservation. He has bragged about things he shouldn't, said things he shouldn't, done things he shouldn't. All to brag.

Wrestling doesn't make bullet sized holes on ears, doesn't make bullets appear flying on new York times video footage, doesn't make shots happen, doesn't kill a spectator.

There was a collateral death. Allegedly one spectator. Shooter was a bad shot, that's all.

When I wrote the other comment, I did not have any info on collateral damage and the reactions of the crowd in the clip I saw didn't seem to suggest evidence of any. If there is indeed a death as a result, then certainly that point doesn't hold.
