A message saying, “I am not a killer, I just want to get into the caves,” was written on a wall of the women’s bathroom where the man was found lying on the floor, according to Garfield County Sheriff Lou Vallario. Nearby, officers found a handgun and explosive devices, some real and some fake, he added.

Geez :(

There are some special caves as park of the amusement park that you can take tours. The caves reference makes sense.

I mean, sort of makes sense? I assume with the overkill in firepower, he expected to meet armed resistance. Way more than a security guard would actually pose irl. So that I can at least get my head around.

But if he wanted to sneak into the actual caves like the phrasing would suggest, why die in the bathroom?

And a bathroom for women. There's an inappropriate comparison here, somewhere.

(Speculation) Probably some pedo pizza parlor basement shit

Maybe it's a woosh, but cave == vagina association is easier to incorrectly assume there.

Why was he hanging out in a womens bathroom?

I think that's the least concerning part of this story
