Will he still be labeled a right-wing Christian zealot?
I don’t think media will approach this story that way, as the Rodgers were not known to be particularly religious except for Christmas and Easter banquets. Those mansion based dinners were often more a matter of public relations vs any direct expression of faith.
What many will zero in on is how did he get all those guns. Who, if anyone helped him. It’s far easier to blame the faceless NRA monolith instead of naming other factors where individual would be cupable, like his ‘team’ of psychiatrists and social counselors. Why did none of them know of his potential danger.
I neglected to add in my article, that Elliot Rodgers had written that it was common for him to send OVER FOURTEEN HOURS a DAY playing WORLDS OF WAR ONLINE, and others such as Halo. Some boys can play these games, have fun, then walk back into the satisfying reality of their own lives, Elliot could not. His mother indulged him, and allowed him to spend almost every waking hour online playing war games. This surely served to stunt his emotional maturity.
