In a disturbing display of modern media, a number of people on Twitter, Facebook, and internet forums have lamented the fact that Elliot Rodger went on a killing spree. This is not because of the people he killed, but because he was "hot."
Instead of focusing on the victims, these users talk about the attractiveness of a killer. Here is a brief compilation:

” his old man should have just bought him a hooker”
Agreed. Or he should have just bought himself a hooker. How the heck difficult is it to figure this one out? You’re hungry, you order Chinese, or a pizza. Gimme a break.
And you prudes here who want to quote Bible verses to me over these practical sentiments, please just quote verses to each other, will ya’, and leave me alone.
“Psycho females are not a turn on.”
Never go to bed with anyone crazier than yourself (kinda rules out women in general, IMO).
Guess it would not have same result as headline "A Few Idiots have a weird opinion"

I wonder is the female side sees the same thing from their perspective. :)
IMO he was barking up the wrong gender.
If he wasn’t gay he was missing his calling.
With his money he could have bought/rented a woman if he was so concerned about being virgin.
This is why I don’t Twitter...there is no sign of intelligent life there. Just and outpouring of four letter words and Rasta stuff. If I wanted that kind of an experience, I’d go walk around the local dump.
These are the same ones who appear on Watters’ World interviews.
Same here. The only pics I've seen of him have been on FR.
That wouldn't have worked. He hated and feared women; being around women was pure agony for him. So he fantasized about women constantly, hated them for never looking at him and always going out with other guys, and avoided them as much as possible.
This was all in his manifesto (fascinating read). To borrow from The Doors, his brain was squirming like a toad.
50% of the people out there are below average intelligence. It shows!
On her Wikipedia page, I was revulsed to learn that she had caught Mineo in bed with Bobby Sherman
Ewwwww.
That is common in Hollyweird - to the point where it’s almost a requirement
Well, everyone except Elliot Rodgers.
This is what happens when you name your kid Elliott.
Where can I find the manifesto? I would like to read it as well, but all the copies seem to have been scrubbed from online.
Here it is, I just verified that it is there:
It is a pdf file, but not quite searchable. If you search a specific phrase, it will show an excerpt containing the phrase, but it won’t jump to that section in the document. Perhaps it would be searchable if it were downloaded... but I don’t want that on my computer, so did not try it.
What strikes me is that this kid grew up very privileged, never lacked for anything, seemed to have a close family, etc., but was also very disturbed from the start. That just shows that mental illness comes from within.
I tried to watch his last video, but could not. He had a melodramatic method of speaking, like an overacted B movie, that I find unbearable after a few seconds.
Here, try this link instead:
It is a rather lengthy article, full of pictures, but at the end of the article, above the comments, the manifesto appears in a navigable reading window. It is still not searchable, but is a little more user-friendly (IMO) than the one at the other link.
I wouldn't worry about the state of the union based on their attempts to figure him out. Surely, this crime is going to make them assess their own judgment about people they meet, date or have sex with -- one hopes they will be more careful to mind that inner voice that says, "Don't go out with this one, even though his [hair/clothes/car/facial features] are attractive."
