My god, a PhD student that shoots at least 50 people during a movie session?
The pineapple is wrong with this world.

Hearing about this really has me interested and perplexed as to what really goes on in someones mind to make him/her do something like this. I guess the same can be said about soldiers who at some point don't care whether they are shooting civilians or opposing soldiers. I really don't get it.
I hear now they are claiming that James Holmes is "Mentally Ill"...err? So he's mentally ill after he shoots everyone, but before when he is purchasing all the ammo, setting up traps in his house, quite complex I might add, and obviously plotting all of this.. He's normal?
Very bothered by this whole thing.
Well, maybe that's how he plans on getting his insanity plea through, he calls himself "The Joker," but he dyed his hair red. That's crazy!
I suppose I ought to have separated the two facts since they don't quite jive with one another. He may or may not have been inspired by the movie, it never stated that he imitated The Joker with red hair. Just he had red hair and he called himself The Joker.
Man. Lotso Europeans bashing 'murrica about this.

Has alot of information on the whole thing. He booby trapped his entire house/apartment and police are in a long process of disarming things. Also everyone and anyone making jokes or talking about politics are really f'ucking horrible.
Do you know what the definition of Mentally Ill is? Someone who is Mentally Ill doesn't plan something this intricate. Not to mention the kid was a genius in college. Or ask the guy on this Forum that knew James personally, and ask him if he thought James was "Mentally Ill". Now of course something could have happened that could have triggered these kind of actions, but to immediately label him as mentally ill, because of a few strange facts such as calling himself the Joker. Seems a bit off.
Ok.. so that sums up that you DON'T know what mentally ill means.. Because you just listed someone with a Mental DISORDER.
Anyways, not going to bother with you.
As I am more interested in this case as a whole. I kind of want the person who knew James personally to post a bit more, as it seems like he might have known him fairly well. I'm just interested in what makes people turn to these things. I have done some research on other various cases and some serial killings, and there are a lot of similiarities. Pretty annoying how some people are already starting to make jokes on twitter and FB and such.
What retarded discussion.
Everyone has a type of mental illness, it doesn't define it as something bad or you have issues. Are you a perfectionist? Mental disorder. Do you have paranoia? Mental disorder. Obsessive Compulsive? Mental disorder. But yeah, let's keep bragging about how smart we are about mental illnesses, which by the way is synonymous with mental disorder.
Seriously? By definition I have a mental illness, suffering from severe anxiety and panic attacks. Think I couldn't HATCH A PLOT? Do you think asking someone who knew/knows me would give you a definitive answer?
The reality about mental illness is that it effects your thought processes, it's not something people can outwardly see (which is why a lot of people have trouble considering it a real issue) and unless you tell you're friends they're probably not going to know. It doesn't mean you can't function as a normal human being.
Judging by this video, this guy doesn't seem very mentally healthy either:
That or he's high of drugs.
