So it's about an hour of the shooter making his way around this small slice of midtown Manhattan. He goes to a Starbucks and gets a snack and a bottle of water. He walks west a block. He then walks east a block. He's clearly passing time as he waits for Brian Thompson to make his appearance.

People were cheering the demise of this person they'd never met, who was a father of two and a husband and had a life and was just doing a job, no matter how distasteful that job might be to a certain segment of the population.
