I hate starting new threads that overlap other ones but here we go. The shooter had a history of mental illness.
Mr. Brinsley had also suffered from mental problems. Relatives told the police he had taken medication at one point, and when he was asked during an August 2011 court hearing if he had ever been a patient in a mental institution or under the care of a psychiatrist or psychologist, he said yes. He had also tried to hang himself a year ago, the police said.

It's really a shame that the people who brought him into this world didn't realize he needed help a long time ago and could've gotten it. It's amazing how many people want to have babies but not raise them properly.

You should learn how to write a coherent sentence.
Is this some sort of pathetic attempt to justify his conduct and/or exonerate the protestors and politicians who incited him?
As I note above. The mentally ill do not think like us. We can not live our lives with the thought that the mentally ill might react in some way negatively. We need more information but as some of us noted very early on, it likely wasn't Sharpton, protests, DeBlasio or any of the boogeymen that did this but rather mental illness.
If wanting to address what is so often a common denominator in cases like this is pathetic, I'll take the label.
Do you know where he got his gun? Until then....what is your point?
Exactly how did you miss my point? It seems he had a history of mental illness.

ANd BTW...this guy was going to kill, no matter what...
From your link:
Yes, no matter what. Maybe we should start the conversation what we can do with those with a history of violence and mental illness before things become inevitable?

This is where fanning the fans during tense situations leads to, the most mentally unstable, and those who are normally of sound mind, but are already experiencing resentment and anger, they are pushed just a little bit more and they snap.

But it's society's fault for not treating his mental illness.
