Aurora theater shooting: Five twisted theories about the attack

Juan_Leg topcommenter

Will Holmes have a shot at a FAIR trial

ANYWHERE in the state ?

( Much less in Arapahoe ! )

They could always bring in a jury from

out of state.....

I just dont know what to think. With all that is going on in the world, it could be anything.

How does a PHD student all of a sudden develop such a twisted direction when everything about him was top notch. Was he an average student who failed test's, was he a student who was arrested at an "Occupy " demonstration. The FBI has admitted to setting up situations such as these and at the last minute calling off... FACT !! In my experience a student of this caliber would have been noticed as to his change in behavior, did the people around him fail him? apparently so and for what reason? His whole demeanor has the markings of a past assassin Sirhan Sirhan (Robert Kennedys) assassin. How many in Aurora knew about this military operation in Aurora last Dec? It's not a game folks.. people are dying. This a video of "Operation Mountain Guardian"

Your paranoid schizophrenia will destroy your life if you don't seen professional treatment.

@DonkeyHotay

LOL, I think his treatment gave him schizophrenia. Unless of course the desired outcome of his psychiatric treatment was to shoot up a movie theater and rig his apartment with explosives. Then I guess it worked!

Star Trek? That is ridiculous. 1-4 are correct but the Star Trek one is way off.

@WhoCares I don't know whether to laugh or get really confused. Thanks for the post, WhoCares.

on a side note...I found it fascinating that the Star Trek crews had crock pots available....fascinating!

Here is the real lesson to take away from the tragedy in Aurora: We need, as a society, to be more proactive and less reactive, to think more profoundly about how to be a more loving and caring society so that those who are spiraling down into a hell they are intent on inflicting on the rest of us are surrounded by people who are there to stop that descent, or, if impossible, to restrain them before they can act on it. We need to move from a society of people who suddenly care deeply about one another when tragedy strikes, to a society that cares deeply enough about one another to help keep tragedy from striking in the first place. The benefits of moving in that direction are not just the reduction of the rate at which these senseless acts of violence occur, but also an improved quality of life for us all. It's time for all of us to reach down into the depths of our reason, the depths of our compassion, the depths of our commitment to one another, and work as courageously toward being that kind of society as the first responders a few days ago in Aurora worked toward mitigating the suffering inflicted by our failure to do so. http://www.facebook.com/?ref=tn_tnmn#!/photo.php?fbid=473956069290407&set=a.470753346277346.112232.151536731532344&type=1&theater

@michael.roberts Thanks, Michael.

@steve.harvey.hd28 Start by prosecuting the police who beat and murder people routinely and use the exact same tactics as the alleged shooter did daily around the country. This was a police pysop operation all the way.

@WhoCares That reminds me: The "insanity" that is implicated in this kind of event isn't just the insanity of the shooter himself, but also the insanity of people who live in their own bizarre realities that in various ways feed into the insanity of the people who end up actually doing the shooting. Being rational is really important, and people need to make a bit more effort to rise to the challenge.

@steve.harvey.hd28 Indeed we need to get "more proactive": We need to get involved, volunteer some of our time, and get to know these people. We need to know them as individuals, so we can single out the rabid, ill-raised, chronic fuck-ups, and get them alone and take them out.

@GetOffMyLawn

If that approach had been used with his psychiatrist the first time she was caught prescribing all kinds of psychiatric drugs and narctoics to herself, husband and employees, we wouldn't be reading this story right now. I agree with your approach but we need to look at the fuck-up's in the position to do the most harm to the most people - politicians, pharmaceutical companies, doctors, judges, the media, FBI, CIA etc. Once the bazillion "bad apples in these entities are effectively "weeded out" then we can worry about petty thugs who rob Seven Elevens.

WhoCares

@GetOffMyLawn @steve.harvey.hd28 seeing as how this was a police pysop you have to ask yourself why the alleged shooter allowed himself to be duped.

@GetOffMyLawn Hmm. Sounds like that's a policy that would shorten your life considerably, if implemented. You know, the ol' "nasty, brutish and short" approach has been doing wonders for Somalia (and other places which replace the rule of law with privately executed policing and dispensation of justice). Not my preference, though, so until you succeed in turning this country into another such Hobbesian paradise, you get to spout such nonsense without consequence.
