Thanks, hennie pennie.

I just posted a thread from a statement at Hillbuzz which asks folks to pray for Jared’s parents, Amy and Randy Loughner.

And he drank coffee out of Rush’s coffee mug and he wore a T-shirt with the flag “Don’t tread on me”???

Neighbors and former classmates from nearby Mountain View High School described Loughner and his parents as loners who rarely spoke even to their immediate neighbors.
 
“You try to say something, they’d just ignore you and turn around and walk back into the house,” said Ron Johnson, 60, a retiree who lives directly opposite the Loughner’s tan, one-storey home. “The kid - I never talked to him. He acted just like his parents and ignored you.”

When I did a search on the phrase, “Loughner’s parents” -— there were many results from many websites asking people to pray for them.

Isaiah Martinez, 23, who lives with his parents across from the Loughners, graduated from high school a year ahead of the suspect and remembers a quiet boy who wore mostly black clothing, favored metal music and had one or two friends. Martinez, a student at the nearby University of Arizona, most recently saw Loughner walking through the neighborhood Friday night wearing a black hooded sweatshirt and listening to his mp3 player.

The Pima Community College wouldn't let him back on campus until he had a mental health clearance. He had quite a history of disruptive behavior there. It would be interesting to know when this banning from the college occurred.

Your theory about early adult schizoid, could be well founded.

And it’s an incurable disease as well. My 92 yrs M-i-L is one of them and otherwise a very very nice person, regardless our numerous political “discussions”(?) still loves me very much, which is a plus!!!

Stephen Woods 46, and his son Anthony, 19, live next door to the Loughners and said they saw the parents or the son walking their dog, but rarely spoke to them. Stephen Woods said he clashed with the suspect’s father after leaving some trash at the curb that did not get picked up. He said he doesn’t know what the parents do for a living, and the most he sees of the family is early each morning when the father waters his garden.

See how easy it is to make up fairly tales like a liberal or progressive.

Change, you say? Like what occurred with Cho at Virginia Tech, who was fairly obviously islamically prepped before the shooting (had accomplice, islamic connections, shaved head immediately before action, was shown in car not his own and photographed by an unknown and so on).

And in fact, if you look at the supposed suspect #2, and particularly if you blow the pic up a bit, lo and behold, he looks like a very traditional Turk. Oh, and Fetullah Gulen has his compounds/network focussed in Tucson.

Just dots. May mean nothing or everything.

And how does the timeline of his obtaining a firearm mesh with his dismissal from college?

Sorry to say, “Never let your guard down.” You never know when they will stop taking their medications and / or some voice will tell them you are the enemy and that you must be cut into little pieces because the gold fish are hungry.

Or something like that. I know of what I speak and it is spooky. Sad but spooky and I don’t want to become a victim of it.

You’re probably right. I was just responding to the question of whether someone has to do actual harm in order to get committed.

Plenty of papers on it available all over the net. What seems to be the deal is that SOME folks with a schizophrenic genetic structure develop full blown schizophrenia almost instantaneously with the use of marijuana.

Which is one of the reasons you can "miss" the onset.

The pro-MJ crowd want to make more MJ available so that all these schizophrenia susceptible individuals can wig out now rather than later.

There also are suggestions that people may be self-medicating — smoking pot because of mental illness, rather than becoming mentally ill because of drug use.
