Wow — this was a year before Sandy Hook.
He sounds absolutely rational and intellectually proficient.
Can someone provide a direct link to an mp3 audio file for the bandwidth challenged?
I have no doubt this guy felt very isolated and hurt in life, but no way in hell do you do something as totally insane as he did. That’s where the sympathy ends and the f-him starts.
ALERT - it can bring on aggression in animals.
Luckily, Travis the chimp wasn’t trained in the use of firearms.
Yes very bright and well spoken.
There is no question in my mind that the spoiled child knew well what he was doing and that he just let go and did it. He was obviously able to reason at the time of the radio interview. He was as guilty as hell.
Just another nihilist from the ivory tower set.
He also sounds like he identifies with the chimp’s random act of violence to such an extent that he knows his own random act of violence will be similar and inevitable. It was just a matter of time.
Could this revelation be an attempt to decrease media attention to the investigation of the 26.4.26 Foundation and Robbie Bruce, the Sandy Hook fundraiser gone missing?
This is a thinly veiled threat at people who participate (call in to) in talk radio. Since Lanza can’t be prosecuted at this point, what does it matter what he said in the past? Well, I guess we’d better listen to all that stuff too, it’s public enough.......
Yep — he really identified with how and what that chimp felt.
...and is being mercilessly tortured there.
Almost too articulate. Robotic.
He sounded like he wanted to marry Travis the Chimp, but society puts living beans into little boxes and wouldn’t let him gay marry a chimp so he shot a bunch of little kids.
Wow — this was a year before Sandy Hook.
He sounds absolutely rational and intellectually proficient.

It’s funny the misconceptions folks have about mental illness and the those who have it.
It appears to surprise you that Adam, as a mentally ill individual, can flash intellect and speak rationally.
Mentally ill people are NOT made stupid by the illness. It crosses wires and makes some of the unreal real.
A simple anecdote, my off-her-meds mom, at age 68, very soon to be committed in a deeply psychotic state, convinced a gentleman who was selling a sailboat that she was gonna buy it, sail to her slip 60 miles away by water, and live on the boat. She knew all the lingo (we all sailed a bit back in the day), so she very convincing, and frankly, she had the ability to be quite charming. And uber rational.
Oh, she had no slip 60 miles away.
Mental illness does not erase one’s intellect, and as long as you don’t tell her that her delusions were just that, she could speak quite rationally.
The problem is that these articles keep posting that 16 year old picture of his where he looks like a scrawny loon, but there are pictures of him on the internet where he appears to be a perfectly normal mature 20 year old young man.
It was that mature 20 year old not the scrawny 16 year old who entered Sandy Hook.
I find it interesting that he pronounces each and every syllable and consonant in each and every word: “He haD To resorT To aCTiviTies...”
Sounds robotic. Doesn’t elide any words.
Is this a common symptom of some mental disorders? Extreme compulsiveness? Is this a form of “pressured speech”?
