I'm pretty sure he killed his mother in the attack, Monica...
I'm not going to make any conclusive comments as to 'why?' until some time from now. The MSM is not going to give you a true or fair representation of things; looking at it from the aggregate will give much better perspective a couple weeks from now, imo.
It could have been depression or mental illness. It could have been the pharma prescriptions or a bad mix of drugs. It could have been parental neglect and emotional torture. He could have been a 'trigger', as he was in similar care as what most of the MK Ultra or Project Monarch subjects were in when they ran the program in the 50s to 70s. He could have also just been a guy who had a really, REALLY bad day and didn't see a way out so he went YOLO on it.
The reasons don't matter. All of those things should be addressed regardless of the circumstances. I love what Pickle has been saying because I think we all know from a Law of One philosophy that this was event was a sacrifice for a hopefully much bigger gain on behalf of experience. What events like this do more than anything else is galvanize action and force people on the fence to get off one way or another. Access to assault weaponry and tools of war should be regulated to high heaven for multiple obvious reasons. Keep them under secure measures at the ranges in which they can be used. Mental illness shouldn't be marginalized and should be treated the same as physical injury; however, we must get much much better at treatment as well with better approaches than pharmacological band-aids. Communities and families shouldn't be getting to the point of dysfunction where somebody will do something like this with no warning signs given or anybody caring beforehand. Often, these cases are things that would have never happened a long time ago like they do now (and with the frequency) in that we as a culture have plugged in and tuned out. Not everybody pays attention anymore. These are things all of us can bring light to and work on. We can be better communities to one another. If we see a friend who seems down, try to help them rather than 'giving them their space'. That's double talk for 'i'm scared of them getting mad at me for caring about them'. Even if it goes over poorly and they are not comfortable, they're not going to blame you if you show them respect and do it from a place of love. This is the inherent challenge - how do we respond to this with love?
