MSNBC Speculates on Killer's motive and Pat Robertson may be the real deal!

MSNBC speculates on a motive for the killer with a professor of criminology. It seems the news has gotten so used to these shootings that they're already asking if the shooter was an aloof loner. In this article we have a reference to a violent movie and a disaffected youth scare.

Like in “Falling Down,” the Michael Douglas movie?
A really good example, actually. But what I think now is that you can be 16 or 21 and have suffered for a long period of time--for most of your life. We’re talking about young people who have endured a whole set of frustrating circumstances. They may have been bullied in high school, shy kids suffering from physical defects or mental handicaps. The point is you can still be young and profoundly frustrated. So frustrated that you don’t want to go on living and you want to get even.

I would imagine many younger people don’t also quite have the same sense of the value of life either.
There are teenagers I would call “temporary sociopaths.” They’ll commit a hideous act, such as the taking of human life with impunity, when they’re 16 or 19. They wouldn’t dream of doing the same thing when they’re 30. There’s a lot of evidence that this is, in part, a developmental issue. The brain of an adolescent is quite different from the brain of an adult. Many young people don’t think about consequences--whether it’s spending 30 years behind bars or getting lung cancer 30 years from now. So it’s hard to deal with and discourage violent behavior on the part of those few teenagers so frustrated with life that that they want desperately to get sweet revenge.

MSNBC also is reporting that this might be a terrorist attack.

And I guess Pat Robertson warned about some mass tragedy not four months ago. Could this resurface in some way?
