| In response to wondering which came first: Self-isolation or rejection. To me, this seems like an unavoidable death spiral for someone with very limited social and communication skills combined with severe mental problems like paranoia, schitzophrenia, and lack of self control. Seems to me he was born with problems. He probably barely made it through high school when he fried his brain with the alcohol poisoning incident in 2006 and screwed everything up beyond all hope. I wonder if that's when his psychiatric problems started to kick in. Why would his parents have paid for college unless they weren't aware of how severe his problems were? They were probably holding onto a thread of hope that he could learn to be self-sufficent and maybe his problems would diminish in the future, and now this. I wonder if there's anything left for his parents to even communicate with as they should be able to. I feel sad for this guy, but he can't be trusted in society ever. They may be able to lock him up until he dies, but I don't see him getting the death penalty. He'll probably spend the rest of his life being tortured by his own paranoia. |

| #9 *To be clear, that is not the traditional definition of ironic, or even the Morisette song definition, but the widely accepted current form meaning hip sarcasm. |

| #8 Collective sigh of brown relief? So Ms. Daisy thinks that because of a sur-name we know automatically the place of origin of an individual? Sounds like profiling and racism to me. Now I don't have my color wheel of progressive skin tones handy but who do you include in this sweeping statement of who is brown? Oh, Latino, then why not just say that - and what does she have against the Ramirez, Gonzalez, Garcias of the world? Glad it wasn't a drug runner hit, sure, but are there not people of many origins living in the area. Oh, a Gringo name, gotchya. Professional writer huh, I'll give the benefit the slurs were meant to be ironic, the point of the article comes back to a opportunistic event to press her me me me opinion; other than being a color common-tater. I was glad everything was brought under control rather quickly and casualties evac asap, then reflect on the losses. Personally, I was afraid after hearing the first name that everyone who ate sandwiches that day was going to flip out. |

| #6 Can you believe we are paying for prattle like this? Her first relief that it wasn't a Latino? My first relief was when I heard they had CAPTURED a LONE gunman. |

| #4 Daisy Hernandez fails to make any distinction between legal and illegal immigrants. Typical. |

| #3 I read the article by Daisy Hernandez and just thought it was another word merchant fanning the flames of victimization politics--kind of like a Latino Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton. |

| #2 Though it wouldn't help with his mental illness, you kind of wonder if meeting a friendly prostitute would have made him less violent. As weird as it sounds, there does seem to be some sociological truth in this. There is a biological theory that in human reproduction, males are problematic, as a larger pool of them helps provide better offspring, but means that the reproductive losers are a nuisance, interfering with breeding couples. The way around this might explain the existence of prostitutes. A single prostitute can "defuse" a lot of reproductive losers and no longer reproducing males, thus taking pressure off of breeding couples. The result is less violence by such males. An extrapolation of this theory even helps to explain morality, and the lack thereof. Reproducing couples should be monogamous and moral, but non-reproducing people should not. This gives the best result to both groups. |
