They’ll brush it off, don’t worry
Is that Rip Torn?
Hell yeah. Only a unit could muster the ability to make that face in defiance after being shot in the head.
The shooter was ID'ed as a suspicious around an hour before the shooting. ABC News is reporting that he didn't even use a ladder to get up to the roof. He climbed up A/C units. Maybe the ladder seen in helicopter images was placed there after the shooting.
He was spotted on the roof by a sniper over twenty minutes prior to the shooting and again reported as suspicious. There is no mention of anyone making contact with him as a result.
It turns out the local cops were not in that building as reported by the head of SS (she got that wrong too). They were in the building right next to it, so despite the building being ID'ed as a threat, nobody secured it. Local cops had two or three sniper teams there. Beyond that, they claim they told SS they only had enough manpower to handle controlling gate access. They were using this building has their base.
Apparently, the gun he had was an AR-15 chambered in 5.56 that he brought in taken apart in a backpack, but all of the images I've seen of him don't include a backpack.
There is mention of a bicycle, but he drove a Hyundai Sonata there. There is an image floating around of a backpack sitting on the ground next to a bicycle, but the shooter isn't in the image. So who knows where that picture came from...
It has already been reported that there was an IED in the car that was hooked up to a remote control he had on the roof. He also stopped at Home Depot that morning and bought a five foot ladder which I assume was in there along with the backpack containing the rifle and likely the range finder he was seen using, and he was able to fit a bike in this Sonata??? He must be an efficient packer.

The development comes just hours after it was learned Crooks' parents contacted law enforcement on Saturday hours before the attempted assassination.
The would-be assassin's mother and father told local police that Crooks was missing and that they were concerned about his welfare, a source told Fox News.

Trump's attempted assassin posted message before shooting: 'July 13 will be my premiere, watch as it unfolds'
Donald Trump's would-be assassin apparently teased an attack online days before opened fire at a Pennsylvania campaign rally, killing one and injuring others.
wtf
Hmm, interesting he was communicating over Steam rather than texting or using social media which probably explains why they didn't really find anything interesting when they initially searched his phones/laptop. They probably didn't look at gaming apps at first.The development comes just hours after it was learned Crooks' parents contacted law enforcement on Saturday hours before the attempted assassination.
