Whether it was drugs, or political radicalism gone to an extreme, or long periods of depression and negative thinking until he finally blew up? I would like to know. |

I can't help but feel sorry for them! |

Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 1445528 United States 07/22/2012 04:20 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Makes me wonder. He didn't change until he went to school in Denver. There are all kinds of rumors about what goes on in that particular medical school..I wonder if the pressure to excel there led him into drugs or if he got involved with the wrong people??? Was he an innocent patsy for some organization? To many questions and not any answers. |

belay User ID: 16657351 United States 07/22/2012 04:57 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | A California woman who identified herself as the mother of James Holmes, the 24-year-old man federal authorities said is the suspect in a mass shooting in an Aurora, Colorado movie theater, told ABC News her son was likely the alleged culprit, saying, "You have the right person." Quoting: abcnewsThe woman, contacted at her home in San Diego, spoke briefly with ABC News and immediately expressed concern her son may be involved in the shooting death of at least 12 people overnight. "You have the right person," she said, apparently speaking on gut instinct. "I need to call the police... I need to fly out to Colorado." [link to abcnews.go.com] The mother knew something was going on so she had extensive recent contact with him or something has been going on with him for some time. Texas, born and raised! |

I think the snap started before but then but grew. I think he went off meds. and someone at the college noticed, reported him, the college did a health/mental review ( lesson learned from VT) and asked him to withdraw. That was @ a monthe before this happened. |

I would love to hear the MSM asking if he withdrew or he was asked to leave and if he was know in their health services. I am pretty sure someone there noticed him being "different". We already know that his mother knew. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 14181922 United States 07/22/2012 05:53 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I think it may have been those ideas of subjective experience and temporal allusion floating around in his head. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 14181922 Maybe he was too smart and maybe he began to know too much??? That sort of thing seems to intimidate those that seek to control.. That could very well be. Or perhaps he was not smart enough and the pressure got to him. |

Quoting: buggy Chimwit 7206780 It does seem like a different person. Will be interesting to see which one of the two shows up in court on Monday. It will be interesting to see if he has a hood covering his head. Based on that post from someone in the know on here, which said that he slit his mouth to look more like the Joker's, he might have a hood on. That also could explain why his face was covered in a towel when they took him in. |

Dr. Kaczynski serving a life sentence Born May 22, 1942 (age 70) Chicago, Illinois. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1243271 Alias(es) The Unabomber. Status Incarcerated at ADX Florence,[1] #04475–046 Occupation : Former assistant professor of mathematics. Theodore John "Ted" Kaczynski also known as the "Unabomber", is an American mathematician, social critic, and Neo-Luddite[2] who engaged in a mail bombing campaign that spanned nearly 20 years, killing three people and injuring 23 others. From 1978 to 1995, Kaczynski sent 16 bombs to targets including universities and airlines, [link to en.wikipedia.org] Smart people are sometimes CRAZY people I forgot the important part.. He also participated in a multiple-year personality study conducted by Dr. Henry Murray, an expert on stress interviews.[12] Students in Murray's study were told they would be debating personal philosophy with a fellow student.[13] Instead they were subjected to a "purposely brutalizing psychological experiment"[13] stress test, which was an extremely stressful, personal, and prolonged psychological attack. During the test, students were taken into a room, strapped into a chair and connected to electrodes that monitored their physiological reactions, while facing bright lights and a two-way mirror. Each student had previously written an essay detailing their personal beliefs and aspirations: the essays were turned over to an anonymous attorney, who would enter the room and individually belittle each strapped-down student based in part on the disclosures they had made. This was filmed, and students' expressions of impotent rage were played back to them several times later in the study. According to author Alston Chase, Kaczynski's records from that period suggest he was emotionally stable when the study began. Kaczynski's lawyers attributed some of his emotional instability and dislike of mind control to his participation in this study.[13][14] Indeed, some have suggested that this experience may have been instrumental in Kaczynski's future actions he was a sick puppy just like Ted Kazinski the unabomer |
