What is wrong with YOU to think a man driven to such extremes is normal and acceptable?


So, you’re putting the blame on his ex-wife? No one is “driven” to do such horrific things. The defect is with HIS soul; She is responsible for her own actions, but she is not responsible for his. Apparently, you are of the mind set of the average criminal, whose defense in his own mind, is, “Well, if they didn’t want me to commit (fill in the blank), they shouldn’t have (fill in the blank)”. No. Each person is responsible to keep his soul in check. Hate, anger, bitterness and the desire for revenge lead to this tragedy.

You are like his wife. You both lost your humanity and became HATEFUL before him.

No one is obligated to treat haters with respect. Once they discard humanity everything is possible -as his wife and him exemplify.

I’m sure both his wife and you have had abortions. After that EVERY degree of hatred and evil is acceptable.

Show no compassion and receive none in return

You could justify any evil act with that train of thought.

Maybe violent men should just put a bullet in their own head and save women the trouble.

Jail the judge who gave him unsupervised custody.

Maybe taking his kids from him, forcing him to live in his car and him making child support payments from his car created red flags? There’s only so much hate a man can take before it drives him completely mad. Stop hating on men. Misandry is killing families, starting with the men.

You have this so wrong. No one "forces" an able-bodied man to live out of his car. Nor did she take the kids from him, but obviously didn't object to sharing them unsupervised even after he did terrible things, like keeping little girls overnight in a homeless shelter.

He is a mentally ill combat-zone veteran, and somehow you think his wife protecting the kids in the here and now is "hate" that caused him to murder his own flesh and blood? No. His mental health and not taking his medications are where you should start thinking about it.

This isn't the Ozarks in the 1930s. Help is available. He didn't think he needed help.

Yes, they say that. But it isn’t the case. I have had several respected lawyers either I or my friends talked with, admit this very thing. Its a “technically no, unofficially yes” situation.

And I believe what these separate attorneys told us.
