I'm just wondering how many on this thread have indeed read his manifesto & considered it (without 1st indicating there was a ghost-writer, or planted, etc...). I know it is a LONG read but still, *If* it is genuinely Rodger's account, no reasonable person can discount the disturbed/mentally & emotionally damaged (psych/socio.) individual who emerged early on in life...
I only zipped thru this thread & scanned over " his" manifesto, & while I'm not a clinical psychologist, I do have an advanced degree in the field of psychology & am familiar with DSM criteria...
Based on this, for me, there is over a 75% chance that he did commit said murderous acts due to his state of mind...
Reasons being, for those who are interested include:
- at the least, autistic tendencies, OCD demonstrations, personality disordered ( including grandiosity/histrionic components), major depressive disorder, victim of/ or perceived victim of bullying & abuse, Peter Pan syndrome...
&
- at the worst, delusional, paranoid, psychotic, suicidal tendencies with components of schizophrenia...
I suppose time will reveal more, as allowed, & certain events (such as businesses/victims' families filing lawsuits) will shed more light as well...
RIP to all for being the victim of most likely, one very ill young man...

I tired pretty hard to ignore this one but then I came across a story of a young man that's been arrested and charged with stealing memorial signs of Sandy Hook victims and taunting the families. This particular vein of CT does harm to real people that have suffered real tragedies and it's time for those of you that support it to wake up to reality. Even if you can't wake up to the reality that these things do happen, that just because some people jump on them (on all sides) doesn't mean they were set ups to begin with... at least wake up to the reality that you might be fostering extremism (there's no other word for it but extremism) in others.

A bit of a problem. That is not CT, that is theft and harassment plain and simple. Nice try lumping us in with a criminal, real classy. Big difference between discussing things on ATS, and committing criminal acts. Shame on you.

The conspiracy is that deep? Theyre sending people to steal signs? Ive seen the attitude of some of the sandy hookers. Youre trying to tell me that someone that will go so far as to call an innocent old man a child molester because he helped some kids would be above harrassing the families?
Please.

And after coming to your own conclusion do you have a problem with others discussing openly their own conclusions?

And you need to wake-up to the reality of this situation.
The person who stole the sign is a STOOGE working to discredit legitimate Sandy Hook Investigators.
