George Sodini, walked into an LA Fitness Center into a latin dance/aerobics class and opened fire. Killing 4 then himself!!! Should have saved the extra bullets and shot himself first!!!

Here is the text of a webpage he had online which chronicled his feelings/ideas and attempts.

Not sure all that wallowing in self pity helped him burn any calories frustrated

If one is unhappy with their life, he/she should make changes, not take the life of another.

Even so, women in an exercise class wouldn't have guns on them. They had to figure out who the injured women were because they didn't have their wallets on them when they were exercising.

I see so many criminals using the insanity plea that I am starting to think the plea itself should no longer apply (sucks for those truly mentally incompetent, but this is jmo)

Sodini was competent, calculating and above all had rehearsed (premeditated) this act - was he an idiot (yes), did he have low self esteem (who cares), was he unloved (who gives a rats ***), was he unhappy (many out there are), did these women deserve to die (no)

that will teach me to think a (LA Fitness Center) would be in LA noway


but as i posted earlier not everyone in the building was involved in that particular activity

and i thought it was a latin dance (into a latin dance/aerobics class) from earlier post

but hey........

He hated women because he couldn't get dates..
He left a letter and it said "there are 30 million women and none of them find me attractive"..so he wanted to kill a few. brokenheart

Sometimes what is attractive or unattractive is more about what's inside, than on the outside. If he was willing to do crap like this, then he may have been radiating "creepy" and that's why no one found him to be attractive.
And I agree that most of the time "insanity" is a lame excuse, and not at all accurate or appropriate.

yep that is probably accurate

but who knows who was just on the other side of the door

they may or not have been carrying if the govt did not try their best to oppress the law biding citizen's rights


rationalize gun control all you want until law biding people can protect themselves where ever they may be the criminal will always make the law bidding person their victim

let us hope it will never be you (because yer betting your life on it)
