A New York morning radio talk show host, Joe Crummy (ABC 770AM, 10{AM to Noon) had this analogy about the stupidity of trying to find a rational basis and motivational cause for what this killer did:

(I can only paraphrase what he said)

“It’s like looking at someone standing in front of one of those fun house mirrors, and believing you can tell exactly what they would look like if they weren’t.”

There’s about as much rational basis to knowing what made this guy tick and what caused him to act (and thereby assign “blame”) as there is a stable personality to the guy in the first place. Which is exactly nil.

Exactly. Too many people are trying to “understand” this guy.
He was freaking nuts is about all that is needed to be understood.

And it's sick that some are trying to use to political advantage.
