Why is he not like Loughner?

Ideology is ideology, whether it is accepted by one person or 100 million.

The fact remains this guy is not unlike Loughner. They both used ideologies to fuel their psychosis.

I agree with your overall point but Loughner is schizophrenic. His “ideology” didn’t play a role in his psychosis. His ideology could have been based on Hanna-barbera cartoons for all that it mattered.

I have no idea what kind of twisted logic it takes for a man to hunt down and kill kids for over an hour. I wouldn’t bet that he’s legally sane but he certainly didn’t exhibit any schizophrenic tendencies that we know about.
