Psychotic UC Santa Barbara Shooter

By Douglas V. Gibbs

Hope and Change has turned out to be the same old liberal failed policies, that offer no change, and no hope.  As the doom and gloom of the Divider in Chief works its way into society, and his liberal left minions do what they can to kill America, the teachings of liberalism over the last few generations has revealed itself in the madness of today's youth.  The insanity is surfacing.  When there is no hope, and a generation lives in a fantasy world because they have been taught that a participation trophy is what they deserve, they are special without any accomplishments, and government will always take care of them, and then they realize the world is not the utopia they were taught, something is bound to snap.  Snap.  Snap like a prisoner seeking a way out of a hopeless situation.

Reality has escaped today's youth.  They have been told lies their entire life, and now that the liars have control of government, the truth is that it was all a bunch of crap.  Some people even believe this is the end. There is no way out.  Collapse is inevitable.

For some, hope is lost.

A life of make-believe, it turns out, is often preferable.  In a world where intolerance is called tolerance, the racists call their opposition racists, and right has become wrong, the confusion is expected.

The bad guys have become the heroes.  Taking matters into your own hands seems to be the order of the day.  Psychotic is good.

Elliot Rodger killed six people in Isla Vista near the University of California at Santa Barbara, and it is surfacing that he was trying to act out the role of a film star when he went on his killing spree.  Life had caught up to him.  Despite the coddling of his generation, he felt like a failure in life, and he was trying to make up for it, going out as a star.

A YouTube video revealed his manifesto, where he exposes wanting to be like the main character in the film American Psycho.  Was the anti-hero from the film, a character that mutilates and kills prostitutes after having sex with them, the young man's role model?

A little Dexterish.

The UC Santa Barbara killer, Elliot Rodger, shares commonalities with the Columbine High School killers Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, who fantasized about the idea that Steven Spielberg would make a movie about their lives.

In the case of Elliot, his father worked as an assistant director on The Hunger Games, which involves teens killing teens.

Is it the fault of Hollywood?  Hardly.  Elliot made his choices.  He decided to act out.  But psychologists say that children are a product of their environment.  Elliot was a person determined to act out of feelings of inadequacy, and he was a person that is a mirror image of the classic rampage killer: young, male, isolated and sexually frustrated. . . and he considered himself to be a victim.

Racial division, entitlements, and a government that passes blame at every opportunity while catering to groups as if they are victims makes it easy for these kids to see themselves as victims.  In his video, Elliot said, "You forced me to suffer all my life and now I’ll make you all suffer."

He blamed his suffering on others, and therefore felt his violence was righteous. It was a disturbed reality.

Elliot's manifesto revealed he felt he was a victim of all of humanity.  If you feel as if the whole world is against you, it makes it easier to start attacking random individuals – and then kill yourself.

The finger pointing didn't stop there.  While Elliot pointed his finger at everyone else but himself, the father of one of the victims blames guns for the killing, targeting "irresponsible politicians" and the NRA for the death of his child.

The National Rifle Association responded by saying that responsible gun owners should not be punished for the actions of mass shooters.

Rodger began his killing spree by stabbing his three male roommates.  No blame has been directed at the knives, and the stabbing instruments could not be reached for comment.
