Dallas shooter Joshua Jahn’s gamer pals made ghoulish jokes about his attack on an ICE facility where he killed one person and critically wounded two others — including suggesting he “shoulda hit the range a lil more.”
The eight-member gaming group, formed in 2012 on the online gaming platform Steam, goes by the name “Fug bithces Get Money” with the tagline “we can uze da pew pew or not we are coollllll :-D.”
“[He] shoulda hit the range a lil more,” one member wrote in the gaming group chat on Thursday.
“He missed,” the user exclaimed.
The 29-year-old gunman played mostly first-person shooting games, logging over 17,405 hours of playing time, totaling approximately two years.
Hours before Wednesday’s fatal shooting Jahn logged onto Steam to play the first-person shooter games “Fortress 2” and “Left 4 Dead 2,” according to his profile created in September 2011.
Jahn also awarded the “mind blown” award on his Steam game account. The FBI said he killed himself with a self-inflicted gunshot after firing multiple rounds on an ICE bus at the Dallas field office on Wednesday.
Jahn used several nicknames on the site including “#impeachment,” “Hankiebob” and “Frank Hoenikker,” a reference to the character from Kurt Vonnegut’s satirical post-modern novel “Cat’s Cradle”
The 1963 story follows the narrator’s journey during the day the atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima, Japan.
A map depicting radioactive fallout in the US was also found plastered on Jahn’s car near the scene.
Text above the tattered printed out map stuck to the gunman’s blue Toyota Corolla read “Radioactive fallout from nuclear detonations have passed over these areas more than 2x since 1951.”
