claree -> RE: Arizona Democrat Congresswoman and 11 others shot (1/9/2011 12:19:24 AM)

My sister is in Tucson and I've been hearing about this all day. People who went to high school with the shooter described him back then as "crazy" "odd" "a loner," and although his family hasn't been mentioned on the news yet, an ex-neighbor did say that they'd had to move "because of his family"--whatever that means. He was described more recently as very liberal in his views, but from what students at the college he attended said, he had even more emotional and mental problems. It sounds like there were a lot of red flags over the past 5 or so years that he had some serious problems. I feel very bad for all those killed and injured, but I'm sad that so many need to force this to be a political issue. From his writings, he had real problems or illusions about the government, and the Congresswoman represented the government. And it may be no deeper than that.
