TRANSCRIBED MANIFESTO (Images attached below)

I love you and truly appreciate the time I have spent with you. I have such an amazing family and it hurts me to throw this wrench into the works of you good people. I feel hope when with you, I cherish our time together. I appreciate all that you have taught me and I Felt inspired to be like you when I grew up. I hope You are able to Move on and continue your lives without being forever followed, forever haunted by my actions. Forget me and all that I am. Hold onto yourselves and your loved ones. I love you all.

And to my friends, I trust you all to give your memory of me however you see fit. I am sorry for the confusion and heartbreak this will bring. I truty appreciate all of you for showing me a good life and helping me through dark times. I have had so many good times that gave me hope, unfortunately this world has too much pain to deal out that I cant cover up with the good sides of life. I hope you all can move on and forget the pain l've caused.

I have wanted this for so long. I am not well. I am not right. I am a sad person, haunted by these thoughts that do not go away. I Know this is wrong but I can't seem to stop myself. I am severely depressed and have been suicidal for years. Only recently have I lost all hope and decided to perform my final action against this world. I don't want to kneel down for the injustices of this world. I want to die. I'd rather die on my feet than live on my Knees, constantly in pain.

I think I am dying of Cancer, Its a tragic end, as its entirely self inflicted. I did this to myself as I cannot control myself and have been destroying my body through vaping and other means. I think I have lung cancer. I have felt many pains that make me think I am past the point of recovery. I do not want to recover. I do not want to throw my life away by rotting in a hospital bed. I dont want the rest of my life to beas a carcer patient, in and out of hospitals, constantly being fretted about with people afraid to be too happy around me. Fuck That! I want to go out on my own means. Unfortunately, due to my depression, anger, and twisted mind, I want to Fulfill a final act that has been in the back of my head for years.

You all are what kept me going, I Find no more Interest in anything material. I have only an interest in my mission and love for my family, If I didn't have such an amazing group of people around me, I would have been gone much sooner, just want to escape from this world. Escape From the constant bills, shitty jobs, Shitty people, and injustice of America. I am done with this, I will not bow. I will be Selfish and leave you to pick up the pieces, Its my Fault. Blame me, but please move on.

Whether you accept my apologies or not, hope you all can move past this and continue your lives. Remember to be good people. Now more than ever the world needs more love, even if you don't get it in retun.

Please find hope, find love, and stand up to injustice.

love you all, I will remember you. Pray for the victims and their Families.

I Love You.

Dad, Mom, Jack, Martha, Theresa, Joe, Jared, Phil, Lian
