Micah Johnson's mother, Delphine Johnson, told TheBlaze website in an interview that her son wanted to be a police officer as a child.

Oh, now I get it.

The Evil American Military turned him into a rabid, crazed killer.

No racism here, citizens.

It was America's fault!

(sarcasm tag really needed?)

Military service usually doesn’t build character. It reveals it.

He expected to be promoted to one star General right after boot camp?

Oh yeah, it usually works that way; wonder why they didn't recognize his sterling qualities.

He changed after military service, or changed after the military asked him to leave because he was caught stealing women’s panties?

Because he was asked to leave the military after being caught stealing women’s panties.

Yeah, he became MORE RACIST due to the US Armed forces. Wow. Can anything be more original? I think this excuse is on page 198 of Stalin’s commie handbook.
