Aurora Shooting

[jmlynch1]

Why does Batman use the Batman voice when talking to Fox? Now THAT'S insane.

[j-dub]

It sort of reminds me of Ed Norton in Primal Fear. Evil bastard who acts like a simpleton with a split personality and gets off scot free..

I'm not all that well versed in what is/isn't legally considered insanity. But does the fact that he was quite lucid come into play?

The well orchestrated and meticulous planning, the immediate retaining of legal counsel, the incredibly calm demeanor immediately after destroying a dozen human lives.. All of that is more unnerving to me than if he had been slobbering and shitting himself while waving around a gun. All of the mentally ill people that I've known, haven't exactly been aware of it. This guy seemed to know exactly what he was doing. I think people are sometimes capable of shutting off their humanity and performing heinous acts that I can only describe as evil.

need dax to weigh in...

Movies/Television shows give the viewer a meticulously accurate look into the judicial and criminal systems

[Stevesie60]

Also, if I dress up as Batman and kill this guy in jail, am I insane?

batman doesn't kill people fanning.

jesus.

 

Pretty disgusting that you laugh at the idea of someone not killing people. I'm sure if he was in your cult he'd kill people for you, IWKHYCCMC.

i don't think planning shows a level of sanity.  from everything that's come out so far, the guy was living in a different reality.  he may very well have a mental illness that makes him believe that it is all fantasy.  not all mental illnesses make a person drool on themselves.

Dude is crazy, but what made him crazy?

Does it shock anyone that OKC is really pushing for this guy to get off with insanity? No, I mean OKC loves death, so he's practially bff's with this guy. Sickening.

your bastard son will be shooting up a movie theater in 15 years because his daddy abandoned him.  at least send a birthday card, fanning.

[CNS]

Don't put any money in that card though.  Refuse to finance the arming of the little guy.

i doubt little fanning is holding his breath

[slobber]

Yeah, fanning is not really raking in it and based upon the "my boss is trying to catch me loafing" thread and the fact that he is watching a The Hills marathon today (middle of the week), I am kind of thinking that whatever income fanning had may have dried up?

Yeah, that's what I was thinking of too.  I mean, there is an active decision to be made here.  Either the kid becomes a soulless murderer or he becomes an ex-heroin addicted rich alternative band leader. 

Tread lightly, Fanning.

[420seriouscat69]

If my bastard son makes a bunch of money writing/singing a hate song about me, he owes me 50% of his earnings.

Fanning, I agree.  However, let's face it, many a muse have gone unpaid.

Inspiration often goes unrewarded. 

[SkinnyBenny]

Sounds like some of you need to read Everclear's wikipedia page.

On January 4, 2005, Alexakis filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in United States Bankruptcy Court, Central District of California. According to the filing, Alexakis owed a federal tax bill for the years 1999, 2001 and 2002 of $2.75 million, as well as nearly $230,000 to the Oregon Department of Revenue and more than $120,000 in credit card debt spread over several accounts. As a result of the bankruptcy, he sold all his rights to the previous Everclear catalogue in order to pay some off.

At least fanning will be there to help his son pay off those bills.

[CNS]

Oh man, he sold his rights.  That is mumped up.

Fanning, be sure to include some info on how to budget in that birthday card.

[Trim]

Everclear*, Sugar Ray, Gin Blossoms, Marcy Playground, etc. are playing Hartman in Wichita in a couple weeks I think.

*Art and some other dudes that he's calling Everclear.

Well looks like the University of Colorado is going to get sued off the face of the earth now:

He's so smart. He's really playing up this whole insanity thing. He probably laughs it off at night when the camera's aren't around.
