Dallas Shooter
Brian Clyde, a 22-year-old Texas man who posted about guns and ammunition on Facebook, was named as the Dallas active shooting suspect who was shot and killed by officers with the Federal Protective Service after he opened fire outside the downtown courthouse.
Clyde’s cover photo on his now-deleted Facebook page showed Civil War uniforms, and he demonstrated a fascination with medieval military gear. He wrote on social media about loving gun shows and made negative references to the government, mentioning Waco and Ruby Ridge. Clyde posted photos of himself in an Army uniform, writing with one in 2016, “I think i deserve some M&Ms after digging a trench all day.”
“Private 1st Class Clyde served as an infantryman in the Army from August 2015 to February 2017,” William J. Sharp, public affairs officer for the U.S. Army, confirmed to Heavy.
Clyde also shared “don’t tread on me” signs and a meme showing a green swastika. In 2013, he shared a drawing of Adolf Hitler as Colonel Sanders. The cover read “HFC: Hitler Fried Citizens.”
Brian Clyde’s Facebook page shows a fascination with memes, guns, medieval outfits, and the military, among other things. Here’s his post showing the swastika.
He also posted memes that reference the so-called incel movement, which stands for involuntary celibate. Another post was a meme showing Alex Jones and referencing pedophiles in Hollywood. The Alex Jones photo showed a picture of a naked Jones giving a thumbs up, and the meme caption, “When everyone calls you crazy for saying Hollywood is ran (sic) by sex abusers and pedophiles but it turns out you were right from the beginning.” Clyde wrote with the meme, “They had grown men lusting over Shirley Temple when she first started out.”
His last post was bizarre.
“Behold, my paste,” Clyde wrote on Facebook the day before the shooting. The caption was accompanied by a photo of his bare legs. In May, he wrote, “General Patton and General McArthur could have ended communism but one was assassinated via car wreck and the other was sent into obscurity.”
