Murder article emphasizes AS in perpetrator

Post Reply New Topic

its strange,have read a few different articles on this as well as his life story AKA his manifesto,and instead of focusing on the unstable life he has led;constantly moving around different countries/areas/schools , seeing his parents divorce and going back and forth between both,the parents both fighting for his attention by plying him with expensive gifts and exclusive treats....they have instead focused on aspergers, when he supposedly has pyschosis,depression and social anxiety as well-why blame a label? since when are human being behavior and personalities that simple?

where is the focus on his severe inferiority complex and narcisism which both seem to be at the core of his troubles,from a very young age he saw himself as inferior to everyone which then made him resent the people.

where is the focus on the way his parents had always plyed gifts on him to make up for lousy;often abscent parenting?
his dysfunctional understanding of what having parents means has caused him to feel deep self entitlement and a belief that he is better than other people and to view everyone as a threat on his entitlement.

he doesnt deserve sympathy like some people on WP have incredibly given him; its those he killed who need the sympathy of the autistic community.
however,it is good to get to know why he did what he did as it might help make people aware of anyone around them who is highly vulnerable to the beliefs of 'going postal' or to help improve the mental health system for people with multiple conditions, illnesses and dysfunctional upbringings.

Lot of us here are dealing with frustrations

Not able to hold a job no matter trying to do what
Not able to be accepted by society

Teased, mocked, ignored and avoided.

Frustration can lead to dangerous consequeces
My mom used to vent her frustration by hitting me

some would vent it by playing online voilent video game
and actually implementing that game in real life

but instead of doing that we need to channelise that energy
into constructive manner
meditation, boxing, creating some craft

focusing our mind on some other activity will help to deviate the frustration

The killer says his parents divorce was the most devastating thing that happened to him. This had more of an influence on the killing spree than his Aspergers did. Or it could have been the two combined so which one do you blame? The divorce could have been avoided, the Aspergers could not. If people have kids they should vow to stick together at least until the kids are 18. The divorce rate is waay to high and it REALLY effects kids. Especially with a kid with AS who is more sensitive than other kids.

[quote="BornThisWay"But don't deny that in every recent AS shooter case, violent video games was a behavior they indulged in before they went out and shot people in real life. There is an obvious link with that and their fundamental mental illness .... that should be enough for parents to be very careful about carefully monitoring any AS child's media and gaming exposure.

My main point is that kids on the spectrum might do well to avoid these games, and that these violent video games might not be healthy or conducive to their general mental health. AS kids have enough issues just figuring out how to function in the a world that does very little to accommodate their natural developmental curve in a positive way without providing them with violent social fantasies.

In "every recent AS shooter case" (as far as I'm aware, this is the only one where the shooter was diagnosed), the shooter ate carrots before they went out and shot people. There is an obvious link between that and their fundamental mental illness... that should be enough for parents to be very careful about carefully monitoring any AS child's root vegetable exposure.

My main point is that kids on the spectrum might do well to avoid carrots, and that carrots might not be healthy or conductive to their general mental health. AS kids have enough issues just figuring out how to function in the a world that does very little to accommodate their natural developmental curve in a positive way without providing them with orangey goodness.

its better to kill oneself then go on a killing spree and have blood of innocent on the hands

and AS is a condition
which will ultimately consume the person having it just like cancer or AIDS would
but AS will consume the mind

Initially it will start with social confusion, bullying, victimisation, not getting a job, then not getting a partner
poverty, isolation, despair

either it will lead to revolt or withdrawal
