Web hater had preps in sights: Threats led to gun bust:
This is a bizarre one. A 23-year-old banquet chef by the name of Darren Thompson was arrested in Shrewsbury, Mass. on Thursday for making threatening comments online and having stockpiled weapons like an AK-47. It’s the targets of his threats that are unusual.
In shockingly graphic online postings, Thompson railed against “mind numbing” pop culture and teens who shop at preppy stores such as Abercrombie & Fitch. He bragged he would one day be “on the news” for a killing spree.
“I’d love to kidnap a teenybopper and cut her up real good before blowing her head off with a shotgun loaded with buckshot,” he wrote in a posting Monday. “That’s what they deserve.”
State police were tipped off to Thompson by someone who read his hatred-filled postings on a fan bulletin board for teen pop star Jesse McCartney.
Why am I writing about this story? This is why…
A Shrewsbury chef who dubbed himself the “teenybopper killa” and cited Columbine killer Eric Harris as an inspiration was nabbed with a stash of weapons after making online threats to snuff out “preppy” teens, authorities said.
Police said they also found a journal in Thompson’s bedroom that referenced Eric Harris, one of two teen outcasts who killed 12 students and a teacher before committing suicide at Colorado’s Columbine High School in 1999.
“Thompson told me that he respected Harris for what he did because Thompson himself was picked on in elementary school and high school,” state Trooper Matthew Murphy wrote in court papers.
This continues a disturbing trend of pathetic morally deficient losers who can’t seem to let go of their high school years. Not unlike Kimveer Gill or Sebastian Bosse. You may say pathetic morally deficient loser is a little harsh. To you, I say this…
Police served a search warrant Thursday night and arrested Thompson at the Shrewsbury home where he lives with his parents.
Some more of his ranting…
In a bio on the Internet Movie Database site, he writes of the teen celebs: “They all suck, and don’t deserve the fame they have. Anyone who supports preppy teenyboppers is a (expletive) moron with the intelligence of bird (expletive), and I wish I could meet you so I could smash you in the face and break your (expletive) arms.”
His most violent tirades are saved for teenage girls, some of whom he urges to come to his Shrewsbury home to “fight” him.
“And what the (expletive) does everybody have against a guy hitting a chick? What do girls expect? To be unharmed because of their gender? That’s a (expletive) rip off,” he writes.
He even gives out his Whitehall Circle address and warns that he’ll be “waiting” with his SKS assault rifle, the same type of gun police confiscated from his home.
“This anger I have towards the types of people I hate is only gonna get more intense as I get older,” he writes. “So yeah, I think I will hurt and kill at least one disgusting preppy teenybopper before the decade is over. I can only hope. Watch, I’ll be the guy at the top of the clock tower.”
And here are even more tirades of his from the Jesse McCartney fan site.
So he’s been out of high school for at least 4 years. He’s working as a banquet chef which is probably a lot better than a lot of his class is doing. And yet this mutant still rages on about “preps” and “teenyboppers”. Once you get into the real world there are no more preps and other cliques. There are only other people who you have to cope with in daily life. People like Thompson are no better than the people who allegedly bullied him. Still stuck in a high school mentality. And what did all his hate and thoughts of violence get him? Probably a long stay in prison where he’ll wish he was still being bullied in high school.
