There is no doubt, this was a terror attack and not "just" a criminal act. The timing on the ISIS tweets indicates the organization had foreknowledge of the attack.
FBI needs to get warrants and start visiting the Mosques that this turd and the Garland terrorists frequented and learn everything they can. Turn them inside out if they have to.

Early reporting indicates this kid spent a considerable time growing up here in the US. He went on to college and got a degree in engineering. The degree didn't help him find employment, or at least this is what I assume considering he was a 24 year old living at home. Other reporting has stated he received a DUI this past April, odd behavior from a would be jihadist. This is only initial reporting on the guy but I'm wondering what further reporting is going to reveal about the life he lived, and how he became vulnerable to recruitment by terrorist groups.

Unconfirmed report says he may have traveled to Jordan and Yemen.
Sorry, I did not note the source.

Fox's Catherine Herridge reported the same but noted the Yemen trip is unconfirmed at the moment. Given what we've seen when looking into other "home grown Jihadis" I can't say I'm surprised by the report. I must say I am disappointed the travel didn't trigger any alarm bells, but given the incompetence demonstrated by Homeland Security I'll also say I'm not shocked.
Kuwaiti born, Jordanian family origin, naturalized US citizen at a young age, 4 year degree in electrical engineering. Devout Muslim but with friends and neighbors saying they are shocked and surprised by this action.
