Well, we have the Beltway Snipers, two evil, murderous minds that think alike, but this just strikes me as not the same at all.

That was my thought when I heard about another shooter and he was supposedly in his 50's. Brain washed to carry out this.

Do any of you remember a few months ago when this guy took hostages at the headquarters of the Discovery channel? I remeber all the left wing hate blogs were trying so hard to find someway to tie the guy to the Tea Party or prove he was a right winger. It turned out in the end that he was a far left environmentalist nut job. I have a feeling this situation is going to turn out the same way. When the police dig into this guy's history, a clearer picture of his extreme left wing beliefs will be revealed.

Being that he was a far left nut job, notice how the media did not play it up the way they would have and they way they are trying to do here if the guy had been a RWer.

Nope, I didn't notice that... but I'm sure the right-wingers here were quick to jump on that bandwagon!! You can bet if the tables were turned, we'd be hearing the same exact arguments (just flipped around) about today's tragedy. So get off the high horse, because I imagine you too would be shouting "crazy lefties!!" if a Republican were shot. So silly, all of it.

After seeing his youtube posts, I really think this guy was disturbed. Did anyone even understand that whole BCE/ADE nonsense? The way he jumped around, that he thought the gov't was employed in mind control, the sleepwalking bit. Would be curious to see what someone trained in abnormal psychiatry thought of these ramblings.

I read the turd's writings on You Tube. He must of been a big pot smoker, not just a little one because he sounded way confused. He was messed up.
He thought he could do mind control, thought everyone else was illiterate, yet he dropped out of college with his drug.
He didn't have an excuse, he made one up. He was a nut job.

Yeah, his thinking was really disorganized. It's sad.

He was kicked out. Nobody wanted to sit near him. He was scary & too erratic with odd outbursts. He made a disturbing video for a class project that the teacher passed on to the campus police & principal. His parents were called in and he wasn't allowed back until he had a psych evaluation. He didn't get one.
