Here is the link to the 141 page auto biography he wrote, the funny thing was that he was a normal child till he hit 15 years of age. At least that is what he claims the kid was nuts. I am sure most people that knew him seen this coming from a mile away. http://mashable.com/2014/05/24/santa-barbara-manifesto
As men, we shouldn't be giving this ugly fuck any attention, even in death. He lived and died as a coward. Cowards don't get remembered.
yeah I read his manifesto that is what struck me as strange. I found it was actually an interesting read, but damn he was a hypocrite. I slightly felt sorry for him (still kinda do) until I read his plan. Especially when he decided he was going to kill his little brother.
That idiot lived about an hour away from me. I know a couple people in the area. That kid was rich and privileged. What a fucking piece of shit loser moron. Don't give that guy the attention in death he sought in life.
You know sure as fuck this dude is going to have a huge following of girls like those Boston marathon bombers.. even a hundred years from now, he's going to have some female "fans." Chicks dig crazy motherfuckers, but you have to let them know you're crazy. You can't just let them assume you are just by looking at you.
He was a pathetic coward. Its sad to see people now acting like he was a victim of mental illness and "just needed help."
While what he did is disgusting and him killing himself would have worked out better for everyone. It is clear that reading his manifesto he was mentally ill. Well adjusted people, virgins or not, dont do shit like that.
^ I agree he was highly mentally ill. It just makes me sad to see people playing the victim card with him.
He talks about not taking the meds he is subscribed in his manifesto so no one can use the victim card. He also talks about being suicidal and crying all the time to his parents on multiple occasions, how he wasn't institutionalized after that is beyond belief, especially when the police showed up. Let alone the fact he was able to get 3 pistols. For someone unfamiliar with U.S gun laws how easy/hard is it to legally obtain a pistol in Cali? Is there a state record as to who owns guns? after the police came about the Youtube videos, if there is a gun registration system, its terrible this kid wasn't further monitored.
Ok, I can answer a few of these as a CA cop. The cops did not see the youtube videos during the first response. And it is rather hard to put someone on a 72 hour hold under WIC 5150 unless the tell you they want to hurt themselves or someone else and have plans to do it. Someone saying they feel generally suicidal is not enough for a hold. Also anyone who is some what competent mentally, can talk their way out of a hold by answering a series of questions correctly unless the cops have solid proof they are suicidal or homicidal. The other section is "gravely disabled" which usually means someone is pissing and shitting themselves, not eating or living in an absolute heap. And even a 5150 doesn't usually get properly added to the system to prevent a gun purchase. CA has some of the strictest purchase laws on the books for guns. There is a mandatory 10 day waiting period and you can only purchase 1 handgun a month. You also have to get a Handgun Safety Certificate HSC, prior to purchasing a handgun. Its a 50 question test that is very easy. CA also has an Assault Weapons Ban and magazines are currently limited to 10rd capacity, which is why he had a ton of them in his vehicle. The NCIC check really only uncovers criminal arrests and convictions. The mental health reporting really isn't there. You can even be 5150'd and held for 72 hours and still be able to purchase a gun at a later date, which is pretty absurd. The only way you lose your guns is if you get 5150'd and the cops seize them during a search incident to the detention(something I usually try to do). Institutionalizing someone is ridiculously hard to do. Once he reaches adulthood, parents have no ability to force treatment. The mental health system is in shambles currently. Unfortunately dangerously mentally ill people are free to roam the streets and be as crazy as they want to. The real only way they get added to the prohibited buyer portion of NCIC is if they are found by a court as mentally defective/incompetent, which again, is rare.
