The guy obviously has some mental issues.
You can't approach an irrational mind with rational thought and expect to understand the motivation.

Nannystate much?
If the girl committed suicide, she did it. The boogieman of "helped" is completely crap.
Is it disgusting and deplorable? Yes. Did the helper "pull the trigger"? No.
And what in the flying hells does ANYTHING about mandatory military service like Israel have to do with a teen that committed suicide?
This is why I truly dislike much of society. It's all pass the buck and point the finger.
Pathetic.

My point precisely.
Half or more of these idiots are still riding their moral-masturbation high.
They have no clue they're acting with zero logic or rationality.
Killer because of his eyes... my fat ass.

I can only hope the USA brings mandatory 2 year military service to young men and women when they reach 18.
How about teaching kids ethics and morals in class ?
Being forced to do "military service" or being potential cannon fodder for the MIC does not somehow magically turn you into a compassionate human being. If there was any validity to your panacea the world would not be in the position it is now. There would have been no bail out for the crooked Bankers, after the Vietnam war generation.
"quick send every teenager off to boot camp, it will teach them human sanctity of life with a gun in their hand"
What a crock!
In court documents cited in the Washington Post, prosecutors say when Jchandra told Przybycien of her plans, the 18-year-old texted another friend to ask what he should do, and the friend told him he should persuade her otherwise.
Przybycien, however, reportedly had the reverse reaction. “It be awesome,” he texted back, noting he wanted to help her carry out her plan.
“Like getting away with murder.”
Przybycien was also charged with possessing child pornography after police found images of girls who appeared to be under age 5 as they searched his phone for evidence in the investigation of the girl's death. Skousen declined to comment on that case.

AND yet she was the one that did the "kiling".
Sorry, you lose.

Ok, look at it this way. So many of these kids have no leaders of any quality, have no 'rights of passage', they turn 18 and it's 'get kicked out of the house like it or not' (if they had a house/family at all). I would think the military would give them a sense of purpose a sense of 'tribe' along with a way to focus aggression and energy. Go with the thought and see where it takes you.
