re: #186 calochortus

If whatever makes a man willing to kill like that is not a mental illness in the books, psychology has some important work to do. IMHO.

Reducing the number of killers should go hand in hand with making it more difficult for them to be killers. I don’t think I’m distracting anyone from anything worthwhile to assert this.

I pay no attention to those trying to make a distraction. I try to deny them that via deliberately ignoring them. Their media/meme/partisan resonance means nothing to me as far as analyzing how to keep this from happening again goes. To me everything relevant is on the table.

Distortions & deliberate distractions are highly relevant to understanding who the liars, extreme advocates and partisans are. They are utterly irrelevant to the actual facts and circumstances of the shoot.
