    I just finished reading the seven pages excerpted from the online journal of the Pittsburgh fitness club shooter, George Sodini.

    The reason he states for doing what he did (or at the time was planning on doing) is that he was 48 and hadn't been laid since he was 29 (19 years) and had no close friends. He felt that women were repulsed by him and blames much of his problems on his father.

    Pretty interesting read.

    There's no character to his home... Complete lack of it... His narration keeps pointing out the obvious... There was more character to his storage "junk" than anything else...
    Bland, very bland.
    You'd think he'd of paid for sex before murdering a buncha people.... I mean, which is worse?

    Incidentally, it would seem alienation is pretty much lingua franca amongst serial killers. Which would explain why the U.S. has so much more of them than anywhere else...

    he's a mass murderer, not a Serial killer. He fits the profile of a serial killer, if he'd in fact went to kill individually women one by one.. But he didnt ..

    "Mass shooting is the only crime we have available in this country -- and it's analogous to suicide bombing in the Islamic world -- where more attention is given to how you're going to appear after the fact than even plotting the crime itself. This is all about attention for him, which is exactly why his videos, his writings shouldn't be exposed. They should be relegated, and he should be remembered as a sexual reject, because that's where all of this derived from."

    I found this part to be particularly interesting:

    "While driving I radio surfed to a talk show. The caller was a 30ish black man who was describing the despair in certain black communities. According to him, life is cheap there because you are going to die anyway when you get old. It is the quality of life that is important, he said. If you know the past 40 years were crappy, why live another 30 crappy years then die? His point was they engage in dangerous behavior which tends to shorten the lifespans, to die now and avoid the next 30 crappy years, using my example. The host got sarcastic and ended the call instead of trying understanding his point. Agreement wasn't necesary. I put music back on. But it was an interesting, and useful point for me to hear."


    I actually like his train of thought when it comes to the whole ideal of not living a life you don't want to live....but I mean shit, why take other peoples lives? Why didn't he just kill himself?

    Because

    1. he wanted to get attention.
    2. he wanted to express his anger
    3. he wanted to prove something to himself, and to others.
    4. he wanted a legacy.

    suicide is dark, pathetic, he already felt pathetic, he didn't want to compound it by just being another suicide.
