#1 Parents of Trump’s Would-Be Assassin Say He’s Lovesick and Autistic

Well, you can't buy love, but can rent it in Nevada. just not in the cities of Las Vegas or Reno.

#2 He left school when he was 15 because he couldn’t cope with it all so he’s got no qualifications or job experience

and autistic, unable to express himself emotionally. Can't imagine why the relationship didn't work out

#6 Story seems to be going down the "tug at heartstring" checklist. Not buying it. Working towards people being sympathetic and overlooking it while getting him off I think

#8 OK, what do Sandford and Mateen have in common? Nuts. Dangerous. Open to suggestion. FBI and other US authorities were warned but ignored the warnings. How many other cases have had these same similarities? It all stinks to high heaven.

#9 If he was having so many problems (Autism Spectrum, Asperger's syndrome, AD-HD, etc...) why weren't his parents keeping a little closer track of him? Why did they let him go, no encourage him to, live in ANOTHER COUNTRY across an entire ocean to begin with?

No. Of course not. They can't keep track of Mateen's wife either.

Well it's pretty thin on the ground in Truckee, too....

#13 Accidentally posted the below in the wrong thread an hour ago. My apologies for the confusion.

The Telegraph has more from the father:

Mr Davey, 50, his father, said: "He met an American girl. Later on she moved back to the US with her parents and he got quite down and depressed about it all so we all paid for him to move out to America for a year.

"This was to get his life sorted out and so he could be with this girl. So he got a flat in New Jersey and for all we know he's been with her.

"Since he's been out there it's difficult to get any information out of him. About three months ago the money ran out so we sent him some more and asked him to come back.

"He's been refusing to come back and we were worried about him, we were in contact with the American Embassy telling them we were worried about him. The American authorities said 'he's over 18 we can't do anything.'

My guess is either the girl and her family spoke often of how dangerous Mr. Trump is, in the usual way, and young Mr. Sandford decided to be helpful, or he ended up in the wrong internet/Twitter crowd, and took all the bluster seriously.

No doubt some reporter will find the girlfriend shortly, even if the FBI, et al have not. Mr. Sandford's parents clearly know who she and her family are, and where they live.

#14 Seems Trumps claims of illegals being dangerous is true despite religion or race. No wonder the MSM want to pretend this didn't happen.
