he'd tried to buy tracer bullets at a gun show in Arizona
Ok, imagine this. He wants to cause massive loss of life and slip away to live on the run, just like dear old papa.
He has several guns, loaded with regular bullets and tracers, which he fires into the crowd on the left side of the area. The tracers especially cause people to go running towards the right. Towards the giant jet fuel tanks.
He walks over to the other window, the one facing the jet fuel tanks, and fires at them, not using tracers in this case, with the intent of causing a massive explosion for all the people he herded to that direction.
Once one tank explodes, the others follow. Boom! Boom! Boom! Like a true warzone.
The resulting explosion would have blown out windows everywhere.
People would have sprinted non-stop in their underwear out of the hotel. Security wouldn't be able to contain them. The shooter slips out in the chaos.
With the windows all blown out the shooter is confident it will be days before his room is even identified.
By then, he's in a cabin somewhere perfecting his enchiladas.
