I want you to pay attention to how criminality is coddled. Why is the 19 year old Florida school shooter described as an orphan?

Orphans are just as likely to murder as any other label.

I don't think that even fits him, he had parents.  I didn't read the story, I am just telling you the little I think I know from the little I have gleaned about this kid.

He is someone who had a TRUMP MAKE AMERICA GREAT HAT on in some surveilance films of him.
That is something I am SURE of.

So, I'm going to read this thing for the first time finally. This post was edited by WM BARR . =ABSOLUTE TRASH at February 20, 2018 10:52 PM MST

He is an orphan. Both of his parents (the only ones he ever knew) are deceased.  

The Las Vegas shooter was on psychotropic meds. His doctor has said that he was odd, showed little emotion, and he believed that he had bipolar disorder.  Sounds like problems to me. 

Things you need to worry about more. (Opens in new window)

It sums everything up into something people can digest and understand. People don't cope well with the concept that anyone could be a ticking time-bomb. They want to know why. Throw the orphan label in there and we can almost make sense of the madness. 

  I can't stand it when people refer to them as "Mister" or "the gentleman".  

  Terms of respect lose their value when attributed to murdering scum like these two, and murdering scum like these two are afforded a modicum of respect when such terms are attributed to them.  

He was adopted and then his adopted parents both died.  That makes him an orphan.  That excuses nothing under the law.
