What type of sick narcissistic mental deficient thinks that he's entitled to blow other people away because he's not happy with his life?

Sick, sad.

WTF? If it is to come that she knew this guy was unstable and didn't report it, they need to lock her ass up as well!

Now stories that his apartment is booby-trapped, cops can't get into it.

Glad the police caught him alive, because at least there is some small hope for the victims and their families to try and get an answer to, "why"?

it's not easy to be a parent. i know, i've got three grown kids of my own. my youngest, 20, just sent me a pic of the crotch rocket he bought. lovely...

at any rate, i really wish that parents or others who are aware that someone is 'way out there' would do the right thing. parents especially. it's not easy to recognize your child has issues. everyone wants their kids to be normal (whatever that means) and don't want them to be less than perfect. it can be hard to face...but sometimes not facing it leads to worse problems than those that you don't wish to confront, that you hope will just go away. but serious issues don't just go away.
a friend of mine lost her son to a doped out shooter, a son from a broken home. they knew he had issues, and did nothing.
anyone here ever go to a funeral for a 17 year old who was just in the wrong place at the wrong time? he was with a buddy who owed the dope head $30. yeah, that's worth shooting two kids, killing one. he was her baby, and a wonderful kid. full of life, no one was a stranger.
