Isla Vista Shootings

[Peter Lemkin]

To me, the oddest thing about both the video [I only saw part of the last one - couldn't bear to see it all the way through, nor his earlier ones] and the 'manifesto/autobiography' [again, skipped around through it] is the strange almost fake emotion/bad acting/over-acting in the video and the highly dramatic tone of the paper. Yes, both are misogynistic - but they are more, as well - they are a worship of Thanatos. In one way or another this person was deeply disturbed psychologically - and no one was apparently giving him any help with his problems. It isn't an 'Op' unless we find that someone was actually creating or exacerbating his problems. One thing is for sure, I don't think someone as disturbed as he should have guns and ammunition - although I'm aware that most of my fellow citizens disagree with me on that. Here in Europe, in most countries, very few people have guns - few use them; yet people feel that if they had to, they could overthrow their governments. I think the Cowboy 'thing' has been overblown in the USA as a rationale for unlimited gun ownership. That along with a deeply sick 'Government', Society, and many within it also deeply sick [plus false-flag ops and copycats] = the near epidemic of mass shootings; primarily of people one doesn't know or has no good rationale to kill [the only rationale in my book is last-resort self-defense] - but this is just as the Country does, in setting the example, through the Police and Military; though TV and Film, etc. America has a very long and sad history of the worship and aggressive practice of death and killing; of mass murder and even of genocide and other Crimes Against Humanity. I'd personally like to see the elimination of weapons by the Military, Police and Citizenry, Worldwide....dream on....

I don't yet have a feel for if the faux and overly dramatic quality of emotion in his video and paper is something really stemming from his personality, or induced/helped by outside forces. Those who knew him would be better able to judge and so far I've heard almost nothing from them on this.
