and they often happen to be the spoiled brats of rich folks like the last two from the list below.
The other day someone remarked that most of the Occupy protesters came from rich families and that the Occupy movement gave these nutcases an outlet to show, in their own warped insane way, the hatred they harbor for their rich parents. Makes sense...somewhat.
For the shootings and deaths due to these "real Americans" going on rampages, I blame bad upbringing, lack of parental love, drugs and video games .... not guns.
Jared Lee Loughner, 22:
The man who killed six people and wounded 13 others in an Arizona shooting rampage was sentenced Thursday to seven consecutive life terms, followed by 140 years in prison.
Jared Lee Loughner pleaded guilty three months ago to 19 federal charges under an agreement that guaranteed he would spend the rest of his life in prison without the possibility of parole.
The deal called for the dismissal of 30 other charges from the January 2011 attack at a political event for then-Rep. Gabrielle Giffords outside a Tucson, Ariz., grocery store.
James Holmes, 25:
Jason Sickles writing at YahooNews:
Day two of James Holmes’ preliminary hearing on mass murder charges could offer more clues to whether prosecutors and defense attorneys are prepping for a possible insanity defense.
At times on Monday, through video, police testimony and the reciting of witness statements, both sides seemed to try to frame Holmes’ state of mind before, during and immediately after 12 people were killed and 58 injured in the movie theater rampage in Aurora, Colo., on July 20, 2012....
Adam Lanza, 20:

Sandy Hook Elementary School shooter Adam Lanza armed himself with hundreds of bullets on Dec. 14 before he entered the Newtown school....

Lanza changed magazines frequently as he fired his way through the first-grade classrooms of Lauren Rousseau and Victoria Soto, sometimes shooting as few as 15 shots from a 30-round magazine, sources said.
More than a week after the shooting, investigators were still finding bullets under doors and in carpets and walls in the school as they tried to match the casings to the magazines....
Morgan Gliedman, 27 and Aaron Greene, 31:
Michael Zennie writing at TheDailyMailUK:
...Morgan Gliedman, 27, and her boyfriend Aaron Greene, 31, an Occupy Wall Street organizer, were taken away from their home in Manhattan's pricey Greenwich Village on Saturday....
...police found seven grams of HMTD, a high explosive powder that was reportedly used in the 2005 London Underground bombings.
Also found in the living room were numerous written items containing instructions on the manufacture of explosive materials and bombs, including a collection of pages that had a cover page entitled 'The Terrorist Encyclopedia' and a booklet entitled 'Deadly Homemade Weapons,' court papers said....

I prefer the Mercan idea of life imprisonment which is quite different from the Canuck one, 25 years with possible parole in 15 years.
