I posted this Sunday but it’s worth a short excerpt.
Loughner posted on a board called abovetopsecret.com. Last July another member TOLD Loughner he was a schizophrenic and to seek help before hurting himself or others.
I’ve since gone back to see if this user posted any follow-ups and could find none. But it’s amazing to me that this one guy who never met Loughner and only “diagnosed” him via Loughner’s posts, was dead-on.
Below I have just one post of Loughner’s to give you a taste of the guy’s mental ability and then the exchange between the other (sane) member and Loughner:
Loughner Post -
Though shall wish the alien zombie away!
If this is a nightmare situation then hope that the alarm is set.
This is a nightmare situation.
Hope the alarm is set.
This next one is a statement by another user, mordant1, to erad3 (erad3=Loughner), telling him to seek help. Then a response from erad3 (date is July 11, 2010):
(mordant1) I have maybe made a mistake is my assessment of your avatar, because for that to be the case, you’d have to be at least somewhat rational, but I think youre frankly schizophrenic, and no that’s not an amateur opinion and not intended as an uninformed or insulting remark, you clearly make no sense and are unable to communicate. I really do care. Seek help before you hurt yourself or others or start taking your medications again, please. Maybe, it’d be better for some there be an infinite source of haldol or cogentin then fiat currency.

reply by erad3 I can occasionally change the avatar into other stick figures for humor. I didn’t say anything about an amateur opinion from anyone. I enjoy the concern because of the misspellings of words that occur.
There’s trouble with misspelling of words in all posters. This is fine because of the Edit button. Don’t stereotype the misspellings of words ! The inductive argument is frightening for scholarly research. Ill get to the location of the currency in the next post. Thank you for the concern.
Very interesting, thanks for posting.
Wow. Just reading that exchange makes my stomach twist into a knot. Everything that Loughner wrote has that crazed “logic.” Creepy, but also sad.
