And he's not "insane". He knew what he was doing. You don't just happen to walk up to a gov't building one day and oops, your backpack spontaneously exploded, which caused you to go to an island conveniently populated by a ton of unarmed kids and one guard....that takes planning. Lots thereof. Which requires forethought. Yup. He knew what he was doing, and is now trying to throw smokescreens and misdirection to either a) cop the insanity plea, or b) pass some of the blame off on someone else. I still say drag him off into a dark alley, ducttape him to something very large and heavy, and give every friend/family member of a victim a good, solid baseball bat. Sell tickets, and you can raise a lot of funds for a memorial or counseling for survivors, etc!RabidAlienhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07035887632706442114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-87085849383086876742012-04-19T19:47:22.394-04:002012-04-19T19:47:22.394-04:00I get the feeling that a good majority of people a...I get the feeling that a good majority of people are about to do a synchronized eye roll at this modern attempt at a "twinkie" defense.<br /><br />Blaming video gaming back during the late '80's- sure.<br /><br />Blaming gaming back in '98 or so when only geeks played games... plausable.<br /><br />Blaming video games when pretty much everyone and their Grandma is playing something... not gonna work, and will be seen as the despirate attempt at a Chewbacca defense that it is.<br /><br />Hell, even the Jack Thompsons of the world are shaking their heads and saying "LAME!"Joe in PNGnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-62125114039237557792012-04-19T19:19:17.017-04:002012-04-19T19:19:17.017-04:00That's a 50 DKP MINUSThat's a 50 DKP MINUSDanHnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-70353030251917400272012-04-19T19:19:07.553-04:002012-04-19T19:19:07.553-04:00JFP: I tank for The Horde, dammit.JFP: <a href="http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/steamwheedle-cartel/Sheela/simple" rel="nofollow">I tank for The Horde, dammit.</a>Kristophrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08370888276707569365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-75709627831774412962012-04-19T17:53:56.585-04:002012-04-19T17:53:56.585-04:00P.s.
