I think the fact you know his name is part of the problem. He should be remembered (if at all) as just another brainless psyco. Authorities should put less emphasis on how dangerous these arseholes are (they love that), and more on them being pathetic losers. It's tragic that they get a platform for their "views" like this.

IMO it's important to understand these people and expose them. who know how many other McVeigh's were approached and calmed down by friends after his profile was made public?
People always assume that copycat killers are going to rise after etc. but it's quite possible that the opposite happens, that people who are starting to lose it are paid attention to and "disarmed" by friends that notice a similarity.

IMO the whole modern process of demonizing your enemy and refusing to figure out why these people pop up is as much or more responsible for their perpetuation as the infamy.

Evidently they have a suspect on video and are close to an arrest.

hopefully they get him quick, I think the internetz are close to lynching this guy:

And now we know the real reason why the unibomber wrote his anti-tech manifesto. Kind of hard for people of his ilk to complete their tasks when there is no less than 10 camera phones pointed in your general direction at all times.

actually, these guys look pretty dodgy

lol.

So, 3 or 4 dudes, lots of calls going on.... CC camera's everywhere in plain view, and as mentioned, a sea of smartphones.

Well, yes.

I can't fire up a cigarette within 10 miles of civilization anymore without 12 linebackers kicking the ever loving shit out of me and 800 people calling me names and 4 cops arresting me.

Just goes to show who the authorities think is the biggest threat to society

He was lucky...no lost limbs and he's still alive.

i hope his recovery is swift. <-- better?
