How the fuck does someone in their 20s get like this?
Guy Edward Bartkus, 25, is accused of setting off the blast just before 11am Saturday at the American Reproductive Centers in Palm Springs inside a silver Ford Fusion sedan, the FBI said.
Bartkus is the only person who died in the incident, which authorities are calling an 'intentional act of terrorism.' Four others were injured but none of them are employees of the clinic, according to city officials.
In his writings, Bartkus allegedly said he was 'pro-moralist', something he described as someone who intends to bring on their own death as soon as possible 'to prevent your future suffering, and, more importantly, the suffering your existence will cause to all the other sentient beings'.
On his website, where a file allegedly failed to upload a video he recorded of the terror attack, Bartkus said his best friend Sophie shared similar views as him, BNO News reported.
He also mentioned that Sophie recently died after she allegedly convinced her boyfriend to shoot her in her sleep.
His account appeared to line up with the murder of Sophie Tinney, 27, who died on April 20 of multiple gunshot wounds to the head in a home in Fox Island, Washington.
Bartkus also recorded a 30-minute-long audio clip explaining why he 'decided to bomb an IVF building, or clinic' on Saturday.
'I figured I would just make a recording explaining why I’ve decided to bomb an IVF building, or clinic. Basically, it just comes down to I’m angry that I exist and that, you know, nobody got my consent to bring me here,' he said.
Bartkus also said he was 'angry' that IVF clinics exist, adding: 'These are people who are having kids after they’ve sat there and thought about it. How much more stupid can it get?'
