Mom and Dad divorced. Dad remarried. My own thoughts which dont count for sh*t held grudge over divorce. And that started it all. Dad is high up in a company i saw. Most likely not leaving a lot of time for son. And possibly chose women (maybe many or maybe just new wife) over him. New wife makes Dad so happy something mom could never do. Thus planting the seed mom is at fault for divorce. Or mom initiated the divorce by catching dad in bed with new wife. Thus planting seed its all moms fault. Just my thoughts. Broken young. Never repaired. Mom was too busy probably fixing all the kids at school to realize she may have one damaged at home. Or she could have been the best mother ever and son was born with a bad chip in the brain.
When it comes right down to it, who really gives a crap what personal circumstances influenced this person ?
His brother and Father lived through exactly the same circumstances and seem to be fairly successful and well adjusted.
So the whole BS liberal spiel of "blaming his environment" holds no water.
He was just messed up in the head, his own relatives described him as "obviously disturbed" .
Let's take a look at the incidents I can list off the top of my head.
University of Alabama Huntsville, as a teen the shooter had murdered her brother, it was covered up as an "accident"
Va. Tech shooter was deemed "dangerously unstable" was not supposed to return to school with out treatment. papers were removed from his file.
Aurora Colo, shooter was receiving psychiatric care
Now this guy in Conn "obviously disturbed".
This is not an issue the shooting community or politicians are equipped to address .
This is not about guns, it is about the mental health industry failing the community, and it is about media reminding the disturbed that no matter how meaningless their existence if they go shoot up a mall or school, or movie theater the media will spend days making their name a house hold word .
