Thats crazy, think how bad they must feel knowing they told him where to get his buckshot.
He made it out like he was gonna kill a gang that shot his dad but dunno where the girl and her dad came into things, shows why havin easy guns causes more hassle than it's worth.

He actually was, from the LA Times article:
"The messages paint a portrait of a troubled young man struggling with Asperger's syndrome, a neurological disorder described as a variant of autism that hampers people's ability to interact socially."
"On Oct. 15 he said he had tried suicide before. "Ive Tried Everythink from asphxia, To lethal gases, Inert Gases To full suspended hanging … my minds Sick With depression."
The next day, he said that if he made it to Halloween, he planned to equip himself with body armor, an airgun and a laser to "just scare any little kids that try to destroy my pumpkin … and guess what I have A real shotgun. It's gona be a fun Halloween," he wrote."

hmm,, i read into that alot...
just shows, what can happen if u pick on ppl for no reason (the AnandTech forums)
its weird at first... but then.. i realise, even on forums..or in emails, ect words are words. it doesent matter what u mean u say.... or if u think its just harmless cos its only the internet.
ppl feel things over the net. even if what they read was not intended to mean what it does to the person reading.
words are pure. they dont carry a quantity much excepts fot the lingo like lol, and smileys but even then.
if u put "STFU noob" it could be to someone.. an extreamly hatefull remark, yet only ment as a bit of sarcasm.
there is alot to learn from this.. but in time (unfortunately) most ppl will forget.. and the world will carry on down....
and some poor guy at the end.. on his last legs..gets that...ppl will think he is an idiot for taking down 2 other ppl with him. but u gota remember... what would u do if u felt for ur whole life no-one gave a s*** and u couldent talk to ppl, and were ALWAYS laughed at. ur mind gives up along with ur heart..
all ths makes me truly sorry for him, and anyone else who suffered. society needs to wake up and get a grip of its self.
even though this is from 2003.. i dont think things have got any better.
theres too much negativity about...
im gonna be ALOT more carefull what i say on any forum anywhere.

The walmarts that reside in the boondocks are the ones that mainly sell them. I think don't know better to not sell them in a city. Then this shite will become an endless shooting rampage.

Its not the general populaces fault.
If anyone, blame the corporations.
They market and push so hard that our yankee cousins aren't as bright as their Canadian neighbours.
Well no. Personally, I think its the media. I mean we could worry about a kid that shot some dudes OR what about all the violence in Haiti? Or freakin Sierra Leone? Seriously, there have been worse things that have happened to better people. We just don't hear about it.
Don't yankee bash. We wouldn't have all the healthy pr0n that we get from there.
