You think that welladjusted , mentally stable , competant person could do what he did ? You don ' t think there ' s something even a little bit wrong with someone who could carry this out ? I think you ' re drawing a blanket statement about behavioral health . Not all insane people are delusional weirdos who think they ' re aliens and shit . The human brain is complex . This guy obviously needed some type of counselingtherapy and he never got it . That doesn ' t excuse what he did and he deserves the harshest sentence possible because he is aware and competent . But he def needed help and never got it . Sane people don ' t commit mass murder . <| sep |> Mike Rowe released a podcast this year called The Way I Heard It , and its fantastic . Each episode is a short story that talks about a famous or historical person ' s journey or a story from their lives , but told in a way that you don ' t know who it is until he reveals it at the end . Mike ' s a wonderful storyteller , and I can rarely guess who the subject is before the big reveal . My favorite is # 19 John ' s Portuguese Cousin .
