In the liberal remake of Casablanca, the police captain comes upon the scene of the shooting and orders his men to

“deinstitutionalized” treatment for the mentally ill is a gift from Michael Dukakis is a gift that keeps on giving.
I would suggest...if you took apart every mass-shooting (FBI defined as three or more dead to include the shooter), and gazed over a twenty year period....counting guns, knives, and whatever...that the massive bulk (roughly ninety percent) fall within delusions, paranoid behavior or schizophrenia.
Cops and prosecutors really don’t want to get into this type of identification....nor do they want drug tests done on the shooters right after the event. That’s something that should be done, but it just messes up the whole police case.
So I will lay out a mass shooting in my home town of Bama...from four years ago as an example. I grew up with a family down the road....younger brother and older sister in high school. The two graduate and move on in life. The brother marries some girl at the end of college, and he displays a number of mental issues...establish authority and domination over the wife.
Years go by....he is successful in life....his wife is miserable, and they have a daughter.
The guy’s sister goes on to have a Air Force career, marry, and has a son.
One day....the guy’s wife who only has one friend that is allowed (the guy’s sister)....makes the decision to divorce him. He’s been nutty and paranoid for the past decade. He might have been seen by a doctor but that’s never been established by the cops.
Divorce going forward....the guy isn’t taking this in a nice way. Court meeting on Monday...the wife asks her sister-in-law to drive down and be with her.
Over that weekend....the paranoid guy shows up at the house....kills the wife, his daughter, the sister, and her son, then kills himself. Cops come to investigate....clean up the mess...and just write a record of the event.
No drug test on him. He’s one of the 2010 statistics of a mass-shooter....and he was absolutely paranoid in behavior (probably even going back to high school).
There’s a big story here, but I just don’t see investigative journalism going out to see paranoid behavior across the nation as a epidemic. Drugs helping them? Maybe, but on if they took them as they should. The sad truth? We were a safer society in 1939...because a couple of folks would petition the county judge to put paranoid folks in a state mental hospital. We live in a hostile and dangerous world.
And the shooter was an Obama-fan who had another webpage where he called himself Mohammed.
Time to incarcerate the whole democratic party in Gitmo.
Two men were executed in South Carolina a couple decades ago or so for murder. One was apparently semi-retarded and did what the other guy told him to do. The leader was ex-Army I think and was said to have gone to doctors at least twice and begged to be locked up because he was afraid of what he was going to do some day. He apparently was sent on his way with no further action taken because nothing could be done under the law until he committed a crime.
Take the guns away and the loons will use IED’s, gasoline, chemicals... and the good folks would have nothing to fight back with.
"Doctor, there's 27 people in the waiting room and they all claim that the president is an undocumented, illegal mulatto bastard and is out to kill them and the United States"
"What? .. O never mind, they're experiencing a functional delusion .... give them all a script for atavan ... and bring me another scotch"
Powerful stuff, a clear answer on what to do.
mass killers only target “gun free” targets.
Instead of rounding up guns, its time to “round up” the crazy politicans and gun grabbers who plainly will do anything to get rid of guns in this country.
They never look at the obvious reason for all the dead and wounded that were generated during these mass shootings, they see only one thing and that is the weapons used. When do you hear them cry foul when someone uses a knife or some other weapon? Simple answer to that is NEVER. They only want guns removed so they can become dictators for life.
Anyone know WHY they told the swat team to “stand down”?
Another gubmint coverup?
We keep hearing that Alexis was able to buy a shotgun but not a rifle because of background checks. Something is wrong with the narrative. Both rifle and shotgun require a background check. If he couldn’t buy a rifle the law says he couldn’t buy a shotgun.
Rational ones, yes. This guy was not rational. So that does not appear to have been a factor in this case.
They're probably doing a desperate CYA on that.
Another gubmint coverup?
Yes.

Let Freedom Ring,
maybe not consciously, but surely sub-consciously.
There an inborn human tendency for self-preservation that would keep one from walking into an armed camp and start shooting.
who know if Alexis had thought through to the end game, but at some point he must have realized, “Oops, this is not how I wanted to end it all.”
