Reply #11: Or The Guy Was Nuts.... [View All]

[jberryhill]

Trying to figure out the "reason" why someone does something like that is a lost cause.

Maybe he hated religion, and he was the one who decided to leave a note suggesting he did it as a right wing zealot.

Maybe he was, as the note directly states, upset with "liberals".

But at the end of the day, this guy did this thing because he was crazy. Period.

Given that he was demonstrably crazy, then what do you think is more likely? He wanted to pin a horrific act on claimed "influences" he actually detested, or all of the neighbors decided to lie about him?

In making that determination of likelihood, you have to take into account the fact that we know he's nuts from the get-go.
