Homeless Man Found With Weapons, List of Names: Do You Fear Copycat Killers?

Yes, there are a lot of emotionally unbalanced loners out there who are angry and looking for a way to even the score.

All killers that commit premeditated and/or cold blooded murder - not in self defense, accidental, negligent, in a "moment of passion", etc - should be feared.

They commit evil and heinous acts with malice that is completely devoid of any aforethought for the sanctity of human life.

Whether they come up with a manner, or modus poerandi, on their own or emulate the actions of other murderers is of little issue.

The same potential for evil is in a "copycat" murderer that was in the orginal killer, and they would still have unleashed their vile acts of murder upon the innocent whether they had observed someone else do so first, or not.

they are like these men

only fear morons full hate hate and self loathing that try to project their woes as everyone's fault but their own

It appears that the world has gone mad.

I somewhat fear because I have a child and I don't want to lose her. We don't go to the movies at midnight like those parents in Colorado ... But how can one be sure that a shooter doesn't come to any social place at day time? She goes to tennis class, bowling and others.

I am not hypocrite, I am sincere - I AM afraid.

I think most people do. The human gene pool seems to have become more polluted over time. I fear the concept of the New World Order the most though.

I don't fear people, I am concerned the media is missing the point.

The common thread in these shootings isn't gun ownership, it is mental illness.

Prior to the 1970s and 80s most mentally ill individuals were in fact not homeless or living in squalor, they were in Mental institutions for ONE reason to provide safety to the public.

We need those state hospitals restored and mental patients back where they belong.

No. I only live in fear of the growing tyranny of this government.

Not as much as I fear Barack Obama and Harry Reid.

Some people collect guns here, but, NYC, is not a big mass shooting, kind of, town.
We are not, Texas or Colorado.
Maybe because it is harder to get guns here, they are mostly illegal and also probably because we are nicer.

There are worse things out there that are more horrid and frightening than just one man.

No, I have a CCP.

I fear of the overreaction of gun grabbers.
Just because someone has a gun does not make him guilty of bad intentions. Last time I read the Constitution I did NOT see the phrase "except the homeless" in the Bill Of Rights.

No, but I fear tyrannical governments.

i fear of any kind of killer. it can happen. we can prevent it. we can be scared. but, this is why we should live each day to the fullest. in case something bad were to happen...

in the words of Jonas Blaine "I fear no man and only one woman"

If you want to live your life in fear i guess that's your choice but it sure as hell does not sound like much of a life to me.

Sounds like a really pissed off homeless man. Were they legal and in the trunk of his car?

But there are always a god number of wackos out there. You can't waste your life worrying about what "might" happen.

Of course. there are a lot of people labeled as "nuts' who just need a little shove.

I fear any kind of killer which is why they must be stopped immediately. I fear more what they're capable of than the individuals themselves.

not really...

Not to the point where it interferes with my everyday life, but I do worry when there is a lot of coverage on one killer that someone my go out and try to do what they did hoping to get away with it.

That's the agenda working behind the scenes.

How come does he has money for a "gun", but at the same time, he is "homeless"?

The scariest thing about him is that he looks like old man Cheney.

I would be worried if he looked and dressed like comrade Che.

In fact, I think whoever is killing copycats is doing a lousy job because we still hear about copycats a lot. I think there should be more copycat killers.

Death to all Copycats!!

I think there are a lot of copycat killers...the media perpetuates the problem, in my opinion. When a teetering-on-the-edge-hungry-for notoriety nut sees another nut getting his name plastered all over the evening news because he committed some atrocious crime it sends a message to him. The message is: to gain notoriety and infamy you must commit a horrible random crime. When crimes are public and the killings are random the killer is not worried about shame or preserving his freedom..he is concerned with notoriety..and in that case it should be denied...the press should refer to him only as some 'troubled loner' or something..the only ones who need to know the killers name is the victims family if the killer is already dead or in custody. When notoriety speaks to the nature of the crime..it should be denied..when secretiveness is part of the crime..as is the case with pedophiles like Sandusky..then the name should be broadcasted...just my opinion.

I'm concerned, but I don't stop living because of them.

No, very seldom happens.

Conservatives scare me more.

You must be trembling in your boots, you poor creature of the left.

Not really. They don't have much power at the moment... especially in my state, so I'm good.

Ah,...not at the moment but that will change....

No, no it wont. American citizens wont stand for it.

We shall see. I was told that communism was to stay in Poland and there is nothing anyone can do about it. last time I checked the former commies have to run in open elections as everybody else and they don't fare too well. Same here the commies may have reached the pinnacle with obama and it is going to be ever more difficult to repeat their success now that they have awakened the Tea Party.

nope...when it's my time, it's my time. I have no control over that stopwatch.

Copy Cat Killers should fear people who can defend themselves.

What can you do but get a firearm; legally: if your not trained get trained and protect yourself.
