No all the laziness is coming from you, the second you start holding anything but the shooter even slightly responsible you are removing ultimate culpability from him.

Not sidetracked at all. The details are what matters, the details show that you’re wrong. The details show he was NOT imitating the Joker, the details show he was a nut self inspired.

The crux of the issue is that for 30+ years whenever a stupid nut goes off and does some stupid nut things people like you have sought to put the blame on his entertainment. And for 30+ years people like you have been wrong.

The mom apparently knew her kid was nuts well enough to be able to tell the cops with scant information that they got the right guy. Nothing lame about pointing that out.

We’ve ALREADY learned that all attempts to blame the nuts’ entertainment are misplaced. We’ve played this game over and over again. Loughner, Columbine, Hinkley, the Judas Priest kid, the D&D kids, the narrative is the same over and over again. People like you ignore the millions of not insane people with the same hobby and blame the hobby. And you’re wrong, every single time.

It’s the majority of the blame that lies with the killer. It’s EVERY SINGLE IOTA. Putting even a drop of blame anywhere else is excuse monger BS that’s shameful and stupid. And frankly a conservative on FR doing a mere 18 months after WE were the ones being blamed is pathetic, you should have learned. I learned 30 years ago being a D&D player when that dipstick killed himself. It’s deeply unfortunate you couldn’t be bothered to learn the lesson.

False. There are nearly always contributory factors/causes rather than a single one. No one, not named Obama, lives in a vacuum. And my contention, again, is that there were manifestly traceable external influences, while he remains accountable for his actions. This concept is not hard or normally controversial.

For whatever reason you're not following me; I know this from this quoted response and others I'm not bothering with that inform me you've missed my points. So we're just waisting our time.
