If I can't fly neither will any of you

Is that any different than the other mass murderer/read terrorist who slaughtered those innocent school children in Connecticut.

And aren't they and the rest of them all twisted entitled narcissistic scumbags throwing tantrums with whatever weapon was available to them at a given moment. And weren't they all rational enough to plan out their cruel and senseless slaughters to make their statement?

I don't want to hear one effin' word about mental health or lone wolf.

1. I agree, this was an act of rage born from a sense of entitlement.

Not unlike the domestic abuse mass murderers.

2. Life is always a balance of freedom and risks - we have such a tangled web of laws,

suspicions that come from quick internet memes, overabundance and numbing by the news media. There are always going to be tragedies, and some of them are preventable, some only in retrospect. Life itself is always potentially dangerous, but the percentages vary widely.

What cannot happen is overreaction to events that continue to chip away at those very things that make us free, make all people able to enjoy some sort of life....and it is worrying that as stigmas get added, the possibility of a free and happy life gets whittled away more and more, and suspicions about anyone not exactly like we are grow.

Me - I will continue to live the life that I relish - and someday, my ticket will be punched. That's life...and death.

but because some parent/parents refuse to set any boundaries for their 'my darling beloved perfect child', we're seeing more and more types of rage from these self absorbed narcissists.

"Look, I know you're sociopath asshole and have no feelings or empathy for anybody and I understand you can't help it BUT I still hate your fucking guts anyway)

The thing is I know enough persons with mental health problems who have no intention of killing anyone.
