This statement proves the guy was not out of his mind crazy but knew exactly how the world turned in Amerika
With that radio exchange specifically mentioning he was white, coupled with the news that he may have been a conservative, I think I’m beginning to understand.
I mean, look... The guy was stuck being a baggage handler at SeaTac Airport. It’s a hard job, coupled with little pay, and the guy possibly didn’t think there was any way forward for him. When you’re constantly bombarded with the opinion in the news media that white, Christian males are the cause of all the world’s problems... It’ll get to you.
Yes, I agree that what he did was stupid and dangerous and could have ended many other lives than his own. However, I also can see the reason for his despair, and wanting to just end it all.
There’s a lot of people here who think that those suffering from depression should toughen up and pull themselves up by their own bootstraps. Unfortunately, not everyone can do that.
