I don't think speculation is pointless and by definition it's something done before the full facts of any subject or event are known. We do it all the time about all sorts of things (the Eurozone problems for example) and forums like this will be pretty thin if we all stop (although that would of course reduce your workload a bit
). At this stage we're still speculating about the motives behind this guy's apparent actions. IMHO reasonable speculation is fine as long as it isn't presented as fact in spite of all the evidence to the contrary and/or deliberately used to promote hate.
