Jared Laughner

Hmmm

Jared Loughner is the alleged shooter.

This is the Facebook page of Jared Laughner.

Just sayin'

I can't make heads or tails of this man. Left leaning Facebook page but takes out an opponent of the right whose policies are probably more similar to his own than not.

Then again trying to make sense of the senseless is like trying to turn lead into gold.

Nuts is nuts no way to make sense of any of it

And the age old question?

+1 I read some of his stuff on another site and he is totally whacko. People will try and pin some kind of politics to this, but he is a total nut job, period.

 

[Riot]

Was it a crazy guy? Or a hit from the cartels?

This is one exerpt I got...

Authorities said they believed Loughner had sent out a video saying that he expected Saturday to be his last day and had written on his MySpace page several "final thoughts" that included rants on illiteracy and the failure of U.S. currency to be backed by gold.

Deffinatly not good for the Tea Party and Libertarian types...Loughner will probably be an icon for the next anti-gun bill to be written.

You gotta admit, him using a Glock with an extended magazine is going to give anti gun folks plenty of ammo. The average person is not going to see any need for anyone to own something like that. Just sayin'

I am very sorry this happened my deepest sympathy to the victims and their families.

Maybe this will help.

He sounds like a classic high-functioning schizophrenic to me, not unlike Ted Kaczynsky. These people tend to be intelligent and meticulous, but utterly absent any reason or conscience in their actions.

Interesting that in his YouTube vids he repeatedly writes "conscience" when he means "conscious."

I cannot believe someone out there lost their 9 year old little girl because of this lunatic. I can think of a $.35 solution that would be over relatively quickly.

KOS: My CongressWOMAN [Giffords] voted against Nancy Pelosi! And is now DEAD to me!

Maybe this will help.

It does not.

She's awake following surgery and recognizing and talking to family members. Wow. God bless her and her family.

For what it's worth I feel bad about posting here earlier. When I saw that he wasn't a conservative I was glad that this wasn't going to be used for an excuse to ban guns. I should have let all that go for today at least. People died today.

It was good of you to post the above - we all get caught up in things and it is easy for any one of us to express immediate opinions in the heat of the moment.

Sounds like it was a afghan war vet 22 yrs old seems like another guy that feared the govt and used it in the wrong way.

So sad one of the patients at the hospital that died was a 9 year old boy.

Just told on fox news one of the shooters favorite books, mein kompf

The Army has said this guy was not an Army veteran, in fact he was not allowed to enlist.

Believe I read he was rejected when he tried to enlist in 2008.

 

[OcelotZ3]

From the sounds of information so far I agree with the "high-functioning schizophrenic" guess.

How does a known nut case go out and legally buy a gun? Couldn't do it in WA
