I don't argue that life, often, is not fair to a lot of people.
It is my entirely personal opinion that this guy has been suffering from untreated mental illness that has gotten worse in the last four years. I form that opinion from reading his "manifesto." It is plainly the output of a frustrated, disordered and angry mind. This fellow was obsessed with a life's worth of "victimization" and nothing was going to change his focus.
As I have said elsewhere, I wonder if he has been working for the last four years, if he had health insurance, or if access to psychiatric treatment and medication via Obamacare might have changed this outcome? I think asking those sorts of questions might be more productive than blaming a police department that let this guy go four years ago after a probationary two year period where he didn't--for whatever reasons--work out.
