The truly sad fact: IF this fool’s mental health record had been available to state law enforcement officials, his gun permit could have been denied. He may have still gotten guns but it would have been more difficult.
There is no logic to his rant against “rich kids”. His 9mm cost over $500. I don’t know many college kids with that kind of disposable income, particularly when they don’t have a job. He speaks of those “having to dig their own grave”? When did he ever have to dig his own grave? or any other of the maudlin, melodramatic stuff he rants about? His “manifesto” came off as being nothing more than moribund self pity.
When he kept saying 'you made me..', 'you made me..', I kept thinking, who the heck is he talking about ? It certainly was not us. We did not even know him from Adam. Clearly someone had done him some perceived terrible wrong, but who was that person ? The rich person who drove the 'Mercedes Benz' ? None of what he said really made any sense. It was just reactionary nonsense.
The juxtaposition of the selfishness to selflessness is truly bittersweet .
