    I guarantee that no motive will be found with this motherfucker
    either. He apparently has kids yet he's just murdered kids.
    Unfathomable.

    He's dead too. Looks like he capped himself.

    yep, he may have a had some help
    with a couple of dudes who went
    after him. I think they scored
    a hit. Maybe ran him off the road.
    tomorrow we won't remember his name.
    another piece of shit bites the dust.

    ### - leaving 'terrorists' out of it, don't you think it odd though that's
    it a fairly common phenomenon among us humans to go nuts this way? people crack-up all the time popping-off like roman candles, but there's always
    some who wanna take it out on their fellow man (or society) in the process?

    who ya gonna blame!

    mind-busters?

    Posted May 30, 2014 (so 'not' including many of the more recent ones...)

    excert:

    In 2013, the Congressional Research Service (CRS) issued a report on
    public mass shootings. The CRS used as its working definition incidents “occurring in relatively public places, involving four or more deaths.”
    The CRS identified 78 public mass shootings in the U.S. since 1983 that
    had resulted in 547 deaths and 1, 023 casualties.

    He also notes that most perpetrators are young males who act alone after carefully planning the event. They often have a longstanding fascination
    with weapons and have collected large stores of them. The shootings
    usually occur in a public place and during the daytime.

    Individual case studies involving psychological autopsy and a careful
    analysis of the often copious communications left behind suggest common psychological themes. The mass murderer is an injustice collector who
    spends a great deal of time feeling resentful about real or imagined
    rejections and ruminating on past humiliations. He has a paranoid
    worldview with chronic feelings of social persecution, envy, and grudge-holding. He is tormented by beliefs that privileged others are
    enjoying life’s all-you-can-eat buffet, while he must peer through the window, an outside loner always looking in.

    Aggrieved and entitled, he longs for power and revenge to obliterate what
    he cannot have. Since satisfaction is unobtainable lawfully and
    realistically, the mass murderer is reduced to violent fantasy and pseudo-power. He creates and enacts an odious screenplay of grandiose and public retribution. Like the child who upends the checkerboard when he
    does not like the way the game is going, he seeks to destroy others for apparent failures to recognize and meet his needs. Fury, deep despair, and callous selfishness eventually crystalize into fantasies of violent
    revenge on a scale that will draw attention. The mass murderer typically expects to die and frequently does in what amounts to a mass
    homicide-personal suicide. He may kill himself or script matters so that
    he will be killed by the police.

    The frequency of mental disorders in mass murderers is controversial
    because it is not clear where to draw the line between "bad" and "mad."
    The paranoia exists on a spectrum of severity. Some clearly do not meet criteria for any mental disorder and often may justify their acts on
    political or religious grounds. Others have the frank psychotic delusions
    of schizophrenia. Many perpetrators are in the middle, gray zone where psychiatrists will disagree about the relative contributions of moral
    failure versus mental affliction.

    ### - in the 'vegas' event he wasn't poor and/or 'a loner looking-in' on
    what he couldn't have, or was he? there are different ways of being poor
    ya know?

    i.e., 'wealth' can also operate/act as an impermeable barrier to what many consider a more meaningful life & living, in the sense that their riches typically 'isolates' them from (what they consider to be) the
    mainstream/real world experience everyone else is enjoying, and thus such
    peeps are often to be seen going out and 'slumming' it just to get some?

    iow: live all your life in an 'ivory tower' and the perception can quickly become one of being isolated from the rest of humanity and the simple
    pleasures 'they' all erroneously appear to avail themselves of 24/7 but
    which you can't personally reach?

    vegas dude was VERY wealthy! and as such, money became 'nothing' to him!
    what most peeps struggle for their whole lives, often their main
    motivation in life just to make ende meet, was never his problem! even
    risking losing it all, and all this in a pitiful effort to actually 'feel' something? some thrill? he could afford prostitutes and drugs (and
    whatever else) no problemo! no challenge there! so becomes boring after a while, gambling big-time and dangerously; no challenge there either! the
    fucker could virtually 'have' anything he wanted! which is fine until
    you've 'had it' several times over? then what??

    running out of normal challenges here boss?

    life becomes... unsatisfying!

    lacking the appropriate 'education' (read: preparation...) to HANDLE such 'freedom' could easily drive ordinary people quite nuts! they dunno what
    to do with themselves! and often top themselves eventually in deep despair
    and loneliness/estrangement from the rest of the world, sometimes spectacularly...

    via circumstances they 'became' outsiders, but without ever really wanting
    to do so nor ever having that aspiration?

    the 'richard brandsons' of this world are thus held up as models (to poor people among those 80%) to emulate and become, to struggle and to aim for
    as a goal in life, only they're NOT really supposed to actually succeed
    beyond a point? vegas-dude ended-up OUT of his social class! no longer fitted-in... anywhere!

    isolated & alone, many of them often just go slowly mad...

    they don't warn ya about THAT in school though eh?

    just collateral damage folks! acceptable expenditures!

    the 'cost' of putting animals in cages?

    some of 'em just can't take it anymore! and die!

    but then there's always plenty more where 'they' came from innit?

    riiiight...

    clean-up squad on isle 39! many casualties!

    one of our packages just reached/went critical & exploded!

    just all in a days work son! overheads! ya know? :)

    ### - know whatcha mean, although in some ways a trial might be better, in
    that at least it fully comes out 'why' they popped?

    plus that way it *can't* just be then all conveniently be swept under the carpet...

    manson really is/was insane! so at least we know that, how & why he
    'became' insane is more interesting unless he was always a nutcase
    anyway...

    if 'social' circumstances 'caused' his insanity (mothers are often to
    blame for example apparently) then we really need to know? and certain
    aspects of nurturing duly amended to obviate the problem (sentenced to 56 hundred episodes of supernanny or whatever heh...)

    perforce people are very expensive to 'look after' once caught/identified,
    but that really doesn't justify killing them? and because, after all, if
    they weren't actually mad to begin with then it's our society that
    probably drove them nuts?

    apparently 1 in 4 of us (25%!) are born mentally challenged in one way or another anyway!

    another 25% probably being 'driven' mad?

    and as for the rest of 'em; well who can tell?? lol :)))

    (might just come down to you & me bud! the last 2 sane ones left?)

    Excellent description.


    The frequency of mental disorders in mass murderers is controversial
    because it is not clear where to draw the line between "bad" and "mad."
    The paranoia exists on a spectrum of severity. Some clearly do not meet >criteria for any mental disorder and often may justify their acts on >political or religious grounds. Others have the frank psychotic delusions

    That's a good article, right on the button actually.



    ### - in the 'vegas' event he wasn't poor and/or 'a loner looking-in' on
    what he couldn't have, or was he? there are different ways of being poor
    ya know?

    You wouldn't know. His motive, if any, could be as alien to you as
    the thoughts of a spider when hunting its insect prey.



    i.e., 'wealth' can also operate/act as an impermeable barrier to what many >consider a more meaningful life & living, in the sense that their riches >typically 'isolates' them from (what they consider to be) the
    mainstream/real world experience everyone else is enjoying, and thus such >peeps are often to be seen going out and 'slumming' it just to get some?

    It isolates them from poverty, starvation, malnutrition, inept
    healthcare, ignorance, low grade education, lack of travel and
    inexperience of foreign cultures, frustration, envy, boredom, low
    level genetic partnership and low level offspring, poor housing
    options and a plethora of other negatives which any sane person would
    wish to avoid.

    Methinks there is a little self justification in your pontifications.


    iow: live all your life in an 'ivory tower' and the perception can quickly >become one of being isolated from the rest of humanity and the simple >pleasures 'they' all erroneously appear to avail themselves of 24/7 but
    which you can't personally reach?

    What makes you think that people who amass a little lucre and hence
    security as a consequence must live in an "ivory tower"? That's
    fallactious thinking and again a projection of your own self
    justification. Get over that way of thinking, be more objective and
    you'll be a more acceptable person.

    For instance - I have what the majority of people would consider some
    forms of wealth, a nice house freeheld in green title, cash and gold,
    nice collections of this and that worth reasonable prices on the open
    market, no debt to any person whatsoever and so on. Yet, I prefer
    home cooked simple meals, walking and running, old cars well
    maintained, simple (but fairly colourful) clothes, connection with
    anyone who has a reasonable and interesting mind regardless of social
    standing and so on. No isolation or ivory tower here Slider.

    what most peeps struggle for their whole lives, often their main
    motivation in life just to make ende meet, was never his problem! even >risking losing it all, and all this in a pitiful effort to actually 'feel' >something? some thrill? he could afford prostitutes and drugs (and

    you've 'had it' several times over? then what??

    He was worth a few million, nothing spectacular. He may not even have
    been aware of the cause of his outburst - it could have been very much
    buried in his subconscious. So how can you surmise the above?
    Ridiculous, Slider.



    running out of normal challenges here boss?

    life becomes... unsatisfying!

    You wouldn't know. You're not being objective. You're projecting
    your own issues onto this matter.


    lacking the appropriate 'education' (read: preparation...) to HANDLE such >'freedom' could easily drive ordinary people quite nuts! they dunno what
    to do with themselves! and often top themselves eventually in deep despair >and loneliness/estrangement from the rest of the world, sometimes >spectacularly...

    Rubbish Slider. People are more reslient than you think, alienation
    or not.


    via circumstances they 'became' outsiders, but without ever really wanting
    to do so nor ever having that aspiration?

    Nope.


    the 'richard brandsons' of this world are thus held up as models (to poor >people among those 80%) to emulate and become, to struggle and to aim for
    as a goal in life, only they're NOT really supposed to actually succeed >beyond a point? vegas-dude ended-up OUT of his social class! no longer >fitted-in... anywhere!

    No they're not. Richard Branson is just another individual trying to
    achieve happiness (filling the void within) through acquisition. We
    all try to do that in one way or the other, it's part of being human.
    As for being a model, rubbish. Many poor people don't aspire to
    selling their souls for a life style of the rich and famous. A quiet unremarkable life is preferable by most.


    isolated & alone, many of them often just go slowly mad...

    Nonsense.

    they don't warn ya about THAT in school though eh?

    Schools are for education. Experience and parents do *that* job.


    just collateral damage folks! acceptable expenditures!

    the 'cost' of putting animals in cages?

    some of 'em just can't take it anymore! and die!

    but then there's always plenty more where 'they' came from innit?

    You're off on a rant. Do you take any medication Slider? Seriously.
    You seem to have a lot of resentment built up and it needs release or something. Try running or hard exercise.

    Wrong. You would only get lies, evasion or more likely dead fucking
    silence from mass murderers. As for predatory killers like Bundy,
    look at his final interview hours before he sat in Old Sparky. He
    just lies and lies about the reasons for his stalking and murdering
    over 50 girls by blaming it on pornography. I mean, give me a fucking
    break.

    You think they'll explain in a trial why they killed? Think again. If
    they're prepared to kill themselves they're prepared to tell you a
    little white lie ;)

    Or the absence of mothers, or the tampering uncles, or the abusive and philandering fathers, or the abusive brothers and sisters, or the

    the son of a bitch is still sitting
    in life sentence without a chance
    of any parole. (Lucky us) It's
    even better when they shoot themselves.
    Thanx chickenshit, you just saved us
    about 10 million bucks.

    ### - know whatcha mean, although in some ways a trial might be better,
    in
    that at least it fully comes out 'why' they popped?

    Wrong. You would only get lies, evasion or more likely dead fucking
    silence from mass murderers. As for predatory killers like Bundy,
    look at his final interview hours before he sat in Old Sparky. He
    just lies and lies about the reasons for his stalking and murdering
    over 50 girls by blaming it on pornography. I mean, give me a fucking
    break.

    You think they'll explain in a trial why they killed? Think again. If they're prepared to kill themselves they're prepared to tell you a
    little white lie ;)

    ### - oh they really poke ya with sticks once they get-hold of someone
    like 'that' heh! an experimental lab-rat forever!

    'more' info 'may' come out in a trail though as to motive, at least
    there's the chance compared to just dead...






    plus that way it *can't* just be then all conveniently be swept under
    the
    carpet...

    manson really is/was insane! so at least we know that, how & why he
    'became' insane is more interesting unless he was always a nutcase
    anyway...

    As we say here, as crazy as a shithouse rat.


    if 'social' circumstances 'caused' his insanity (mothers are often to
    blame for example apparently) then we really need to know? and certain
    aspects of nurturing duly amended to obviate the problem (sentenced to
    56
    hundred episodes of supernanny or whatever heh...)

    Or the absence of mothers, or the tampering uncles, or the abusive and philandering fathers, or the abusive brothers and sisters, or the
    tampering school teachers, or the tampering priests ... etc etc etc.

    Fuck excuses.

    ### - it's not about excuses, 'excuses' imply sweeping shit under the
    carpet and forgetting about it like there's nothing that could have ever
    been done about it anyway so everyone just carry-on going slowly mad...





    perforce people are very expensive to 'look after' once
    caught/identified,
    but that really doesn't justify killing them? and because, after all, if
    they weren't actually mad to begin with then it's our society that
    probably drove them nuts?

    Just kill them. I agree with Chris.

    ### - well coincidentally; hitler came up with that very exact same idea?
    too costly to look-after so just kill 'em!

    ditto: the handicapped, all mental patients, anyone with brown eyes,
    gypsys, jews and probably australians too! (hehehe...) :D

    fyi: we went to WORLD WAR with that CUNT to STOP crazy shit like that???

    (iow LOL: we tried to KILL all the idiots who even 'thought' like THAT?? go-figure!) :)))





    apparently 1 in 4 of us (25%!) are born mentally challenged in one way
    or
    another anyway!

    Citation please.

    ### - piss-off and go-do your 'own' homework lazy bones!

    this is common/standard info!

    don'tcha know anything?! (grinz...)






    another 25% probably being 'driven' mad?

    and as for the rest of 'em; well who can tell?? lol :)))

    (might just come down to you & me bud! the last 2 sane ones left?)

    heh! - may be! ;)

    Posted May 30, 2014 (so 'not' including many of the more recent ones...)

    excert:

    In 2013, the Congressional Research Service (CRS) issued a report on
    public mass shootings. The CRS used as its working definition incidents
    “occurring in relatively public places, involving four or more deaths.” >> The CRS identified 78 public mass shootings in the U.S. since 1983 that
    had resulted in 547 deaths and 1, 023 casualties.

    He also notes that most perpetrators are young males who act alone after
    carefully planning the event. They often have a longstanding fascination
    with weapons and have collected large stores of them. The shootings
    usually occur in a public place and during the daytime.

    Individual case studies involving psychological autopsy and a careful
    analysis of the often copious communications left behind suggest common
    psychological themes. The mass murderer is an injustice collector who
    spends a great deal of time feeling resentful about real or imagined
    rejections and ruminating on past humiliations. He has a paranoid
    worldview with chronic feelings of social persecution, envy, and
    grudge-holding. He is tormented by beliefs that privileged others are
    enjoying life’s all-you-can-eat buffet, while he must peer through the
    window, an outside loner always looking in.

    Aggrieved and entitled, he longs for power and revenge to obliterate
    what
    he cannot have. Since satisfaction is unobtainable lawfully and
    realistically, the mass murderer is reduced to violent fantasy and
    pseudo-power. He creates and enacts an odious screenplay of grandiose
    and
    public retribution. Like the child who upends the checkerboard when he
    does not like the way the game is going, he seeks to destroy others for
    apparent failures to recognize and meet his needs. Fury, deep despair,
    and
    callous selfishness eventually crystalize into fantasies of violent
    revenge on a scale that will draw attention. The mass murderer typically
    expects to die and frequently does in what amounts to a mass
    homicide-personal suicide. He may kill himself or script matters so that
    he will be killed by the police.

    Excellent description.


    The frequency of mental disorders in mass murderers is controversial
    because it is not clear where to draw the line between "bad" and "mad."
    The paranoia exists on a spectrum of severity. Some clearly do not meet
    criteria for any mental disorder and often may justify their acts on
    political or religious grounds. Others have the frank psychotic
    delusions
    of schizophrenia. Many perpetrators are in the middle, gray zone where
    psychiatrists will disagree about the relative contributions of moral
    failure versus mental affliction.

    That's a good article, right on the button actually.



    ### - in the 'vegas' event he wasn't poor and/or 'a loner looking-in' on
    what he couldn't have, or was he? there are different ways of being poor
    ya know?

    You wouldn't know. His motive, if any, could be as alien to you as
    the thoughts of a spider when hunting its insect prey.

    ### - which is exactly what am saying/suggesting + also positing the
    theory that money isn't the only way to be 'poor' and thus 'looking-in'
    (don't jump the gun just yet, at least let me get going first lol:)





    i.e., 'wealth' can also operate/act as an impermeable barrier to what
    many
    consider a more meaningful life & living, in the sense that their riches
    typically 'isolates' them from (what they consider to be) the
    mainstream/real world experience everyone else is enjoying, and thus
    such
    peeps are often to be seen going out and 'slumming' it just to get some?

    It isolates them from poverty, starvation, malnutrition, inept
    healthcare, ignorance, low grade education, lack of travel and
    inexperience of foreign cultures, frustration, envy, boredom, low
    level genetic partnership and low level offspring, poor housing
    options and a plethora of other negatives which any sane person would
    wish to avoid.

    Methinks there is a little self justification in your pontifications.

    ### - now you're not listening? (i.e., this is constructed particularly
    for chris in an attempt to 'impart' something not more easily conveyed in
    the usual descriptive manner... if your read somewhat between the lines
    you might just catch it...)





    iow: live all your life in an 'ivory tower' and the perception can
    quickly
    become one of being isolated from the rest of humanity and the simple
    pleasures 'they' all erroneously appear to avail themselves of 24/7 but
    which you can't personally reach?

    What makes you think that people who amass a little lucre and hence
    security as a consequence must live in an "ivory tower"? That's
    fallactious thinking and again a projection of your own self
    justification. Get over that way of thinking, be more objective and
    you'll be a more acceptable person.

    ### - it's a truism that when quite plain and ordinary peeps suddenly
    amass large wealth that problems can often begin, someone winning the
    lotto (or whatever for example) and never having had the training to be
    enabled to think in such amounts; gets them into trouble! (it happens!),
    and/or perhaps more appropriately: those 'born' into large wealth and
    who've never known anything else + the isolation (from the rest of
    society) which is KNOWN to create an 'ivory-tower' effect, thus even the
    term: 'slumming it'




    For instance - I have what the majority of people would consider some
    forms of wealth, a nice house freeheld in green title, cash and gold,
    nice collections of this and that worth reasonable prices on the open
    market, no debt to any person whatsoever and so on. Yet, I prefer
    home cooked simple meals, walking and running, old cars well
    maintained, simple (but fairly colourful) clothes, connection with
    anyone who has a reasonable and interesting mind regardless of social standing and so on. No isolation or ivory tower here Slider.

    ### - sorry heh, but you don't count as a 'common' example of average
    effects :)

    for starters you're 'different' anyhow? a born-outsider, who suddenly
    decided (for whatever reason, maybe to support a family or suchlike) to
    execute a well-thought-out 'plan' to secure himself financially and goes
    ahead and does so! simples! your inherent detachment automatically
    enabling you to not only conceive & execute such a plan, but also to
    handle the resulting change in status 'and' enjoy the change! (sounds like nothing maybe to you, but never appears quite so simple & straightforward
    to non-outsider types who always sweat all the small stuff...)






    vegas dude was VERY wealthy! and as such, money became 'nothing' to him!
    what most peeps struggle for their whole lives, often their main
    motivation in life just to make ende meet, was never his problem! even
    risking losing it all, and all this in a pitiful effort to actually
    'feel'
    something? some thrill? he could afford prostitutes and drugs (and
    whatever else) no problemo! no challenge there! so becomes boring after
    a
    while, gambling big-time and dangerously; no challenge there either! the
    fucker could virtually 'have' anything he wanted! which is fine until
    you've 'had it' several times over? then what??

    He was worth a few million, nothing spectacular. He may not even have
    been aware of the cause of his outburst - it could have been very much
    buried in his subconscious. So how can you surmise the above?
    Ridiculous, Slider.

    ### - in the context of the above, easy!: he was just a quite ordinary
    person who just so happened to have WON the game! he didn't COME from
    wealth, he 'attained' it suddenly! - but 'unlike' you obviously didn't
    have the detachment to handle it all, nor apparently the consequences of suddenly finding himself completely outside his social class/milieu...
    (iow: completely alone! - 'you' were estranged 'wherever' you found
    yourself anyway; rich/poor was all the same to you, it just involved a different game! not so for matie though...)







    running out of normal challenges here boss?

    life becomes... unsatisfying!

    You wouldn't know. You're not being objective. You're projecting
    your own issues onto this matter.

    ### - am not personally IN this at all thang! (am an outsider remember?;)
    so is 'totally' objective based on previous observations...






    lacking the appropriate 'education' (read: preparation...) to HANDLE
    such
    'freedom' could easily drive ordinary people quite nuts! they dunno what
    to do with themselves! and often top themselves eventually in deep
    despair
    and loneliness/estrangement from the rest of the world, sometimes
    spectacularly...

    Rubbish Slider. People are more reslient than you think, alienation
    or not.

    ### - i beg to differ there... 'some' peeps are more resilient, inherently
    so, but that's not what am talking about here? more often than not a
    change of social milieu can be disastrous going in both directions; a poor person moving up OR a wealthy person moving down...






    via circumstances they 'became' outsiders, but without ever really
    wanting
    to do so nor ever having that aspiration?

    Nope.

    ### - people get booted 'out' all the time thang! mostly resulting in
    madness due to an inability to just cope! the more resilient ones survive
    & evolve, but among more average peeps it usually just fucks them up!






    the 'richard brandsons' of this world are thus held up as models (to
    poor
    people among those 80%) to emulate and become, to struggle and to aim
    for
    as a goal in life, only they're NOT really supposed to actually succeed
    beyond a point? vegas-dude ended-up OUT of his social class! no longer
    fitted-in... anywhere!

    No they're not. Richard Branson is just another individual trying to
    achieve happiness (filling the void within) through acquisition. We
    all try to do that in one way or the other, it's part of being human.
    As for being a model, rubbish. Many poor people don't aspire to
    selling their souls for a life style of the rich and famous. A quiet unremarkable life is preferable by most.

    ### - again, you're just not listening? this IS constructed for chris, for
    him to try and get-hold of something more about the 'outsider', so here i
    am 'alluding' to things that are very difficult to actually
    define/describe! (am painting a picture here for him piecemeal! step back
    a little and maybe you'll see it too?;)




    isolated & alone, many of them often just go slowly mad...

    Nonsense.

    they don't warn ya about THAT in school though eh?

    Schools are for education. Experience and parents do *that* job.

    ### - hahaha oh stop it! lol :) - ya can't BE factual (like this) about... poetry!?

    POETRY! ;)






    just collateral damage folks! acceptable expenditures!

    the 'cost' of putting animals in cages?

    some of 'em just can't take it anymore! and die!

    but then there's always plenty more where 'they' came from innit?

    riiiight...

    clean-up squad on isle 39! many casualties!

    one of our packages just reached/went critical & exploded!

    just all in a days work son! overheads! ya know? :)

    bonkersville indeed! :D

    You're off on a rant. Do you take any medication Slider? Seriously.
    You seem to have a lot of resentment built up and it needs release or something. Try running or hard exercise.

    ### - ahahaha... there IS a bit of a rant in there too, granted hehehe,
    but that's NOT what THIS is about! have merely painted a picture for chris
    to contemplate at his leisure, and these are just the last brush-strokes
    going in that completes it...

    (fyi, the only meds i use/take is weed sport, have prolly tried nearly everything in my time but that's all i ever like/have any interest-in
    anymore ok?)

    look at the 'whole' picture again ok? i carefully build it up bit by bit
    until it's completed? until it presents an image of something that hard to define otherwise... chris, am sure, caught that ball no problemo! (would
    be very surprised if he hadn't)

    check it out before just dismissing out of hand ok?

    i had to do some 'work' here but consider him worthy of it ;)
