3. He was verbal, and expressing concepts. |
|
On the day of the shooting, his father reported him as sub-verbal.

This is what happens when crazy conspiracy theories combine with a slow decent into mental illness. This poor kid obviously needed help and instead of getting what he needed, he seems to have become consumed with some outlandish anti-government, anti-authority conspiracy theories.
As a country we need to address what happened to this guy, because I have met sane individuals who spout crazy shit similar to what he was saying and if they were to happen to become mentally ill it is simple to figure out where they might direct their confusion. We need to acknowledge that there are a lot of people in this country who believe in insane anti-government shit, we cant just say that they are just the fringe of our society and they dont matter because they obviously do.

that they are capable of holding down a job and communicating with most people without seeming like they are psychos, its just when they start talking about politics and conspiracy theories that they show how crazy they are.
