Decent people all over this country are angry today.

Here’s another focus for your anger, amid this eerily similar replay of the Adam Lanza massacre eleven-years ago.

Both killers

1. were diagnosed mentally ill;

2. were former students at the shot-up school;

3. were in possession of large personal armories;

4. shot their way through the school’s doors;

5. expressed “resentment” of the school;

6. were in their twenties.

I’m waiting to hear whether the latest killer was, like Lanza, addicted to repulsively violent video games. She was by her own admission a video game addict; it’s not clear about the level of violence.

We’re sick – we should be sick – of the sweet quiet no criminal record bs we sometimes hear about the massacrist in the immediate aftermath. Oh, she was a lovely shy thing in high school! What a lovely quiet neighbor – I can’t believe all this time she was in there amassing an armory and writing her mad manifesto…

Lanza – who like the latest killer squirreled away in his house plotting his revenge – pumped four bullets directly into his mother’s head before going to the school. The bullets were in a gun his mother had gotten him as a gift. This woman got her head blown to bits because of her nutso denial — the same denial that got Kip Kinkel’s parents ripped to shreds by the guns they got Kip as gifts because they thought it would be therapeutic.

We’re sick – we should be sick – of an American culture so twisted that parents who know – must on some level know – that their kids are disturbed/dangerous either get them guns or don’t seem to make any effort to take their guns away. And certainly don’t seem to confide in anyone whatever they might know/suspect/fear about their kid’s murderous thoughts/intentions.

I’m just saying that I don’t intend to believe the bullshit we’re about to hear from this person’s parents.
