  • The Mutant Report

    The Mutant Report

    To some online, gunman is a hero, martyr:

    We have an article here from the Detroit Press about people who idolize school shooters. Apparently, it was written by Captain Where The Hell Have You Been For The Past 8 Years.

    In the videotapes Cho Seung-Hui sent to NBC in the midst of the Virginia Tech massacre, he spoke of his children, brothers and sisters and compared himself to Jesus.

    Many may shrug off such rantings as those of a deranged killer.

    But not everyone.

    “Cho Seung-hui, we fringed ones salute you,” reads one Web site that praises the bloodshed just days after the country recoiled at the deadliest shooting spree in U.S. history.

    Rowell Huesmann, a professor of psychology and communication studies at the University of Michigan, called such sentiments “disgusting.”

    But, he added, there’s a reason for them.

    “There are disaffected people who are alienated, for one reason or another, from society who wouldn’t do anything physically violent,” he said. “But writing these gives them a chance to be aggressive to society in a way that’s fairly non-risky.”

    He says non-risky, I say cowardly. Get back to me when one of you mutants has the balls to say this to a family member of one of the victims. Then again, that would require you to leave your mom’s basement.

    If Cho wanted notoriety as a martyr for the disenfranchised, history indicates he’ll get it.

    That’s what happened with Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris, students at Columbine High School in Colorado who shot to death 12 classmates and a teacher before turning their guns on themselves eight years ago today.

    And locally, it happened with Andrew Osantowski of Clinton Township in 2004. The then-17-year-old was accused of stockpiling an arsenal to gun down classmates and blow up his school, Chippewa Valley High in Clinton Township. His plan was thwarted after he shared it in an Internet chat with a teen in Washington state, who told her father. He, in turn, called Clinton Township police.

    Online, Osantowski was praised.

    “I, for one, salute Mr. Osantowski,” a Web site posting read at the time. Osantowski, who was convicted of threatening an act of terrorism and using a computer to threaten terrorism, was sentenced to 4 1/2 to 22 years in prison.

    I wonder which site that was. Oh, yeah. It was this one. What the article fails to mention is that the person who made that comment has since recanted his opinion of Andrew Osantowski.

    But hey, if it opens the eyes of some parents who have at-risk kids, hopefully it will avoid another Columbine or Virginia Tech.

  • It’s official: Cho is a mutant

    It’s official: Cho is a mutant

    I just finished watching the NBC Nightly News. It’s the first time I’ve watched a TV newscast in a very long time.

    Brian Williams was discussing the “manifesto” that Cho Seung-Hui sent to NBC. In it, Cho refers to the Columbine killers, Eric Harris, and Dylan Klebold, by name, calling them martyrs.

    So he’s nothing more than a mutant copying the actions of two cowardly scumbags.

    The flames of hell burn a little more yellow tonight with the addition of another coward.

  • No bail for Teenybopper Killa

    No bail for Teenybopper Killa

    Hearing set for ”Teenybopper Killa’ ”:

    Darren Thompson, the self-proclaimed Teenybopper Killa, has been ordered held without bail until a dangerousness hearing for Thompson is held this Friday. To refresh your memory, Thompson was arrested after making violent threatening comments online about how he wanted to kill all the “preps” and “teenyboppers”. When police searched his house they found a cache of illegal weapons, including some that were homemade.

    As mentioned before, Thompson is also a mutant of the highest order. Now we know a little bit more about his fascination with Columbine…

    Police said Thompson’s journal also described how he intended to use the weapons and referenced Eric Harris, one of two teens who murdered 12 students and a teacher at Columbine High School in 1999, according to court documents.

    “One day, there will be another school shooting on the news, I’ll laugh and SMILE and jump for joy the next time I hear about one,” Thompson allegedly wrote, according to court records.

    “I could snipe you in the head with one shot and drag your body into the woods and no one would ever hear of you again,” he allegedly wrote.

    When questioned by state police, Thompson admitted to admiring the Columbine killer.

    Thompson became “visibly angry and started rocking back and forth in his chair, explaining how he was picked on by all the “preps” when he was younger,” during an interview with State trooper Matthew G. Murphy, court documents showed.

    What’s sad is this fool graduated from college and had a job as a hotel chef. He was probably making better money than most of the “preps” that he went to school with. And the poor fool couldn’t let it go, and kept that hate inside of him all these years. What did it get him? Two counts of possession of a firearm without a permit, possession of a large capacity firearm, improper storage of a large capacity firearm, and a long stay at the Graybar Motel.

  • Teenybopper Killa wanted to kill his mom

    Teenybopper Killa wanted to kill his mom

    “Killa” had mother on his hit list:

    Just doing some vacation clean up, so the next few entries are going to be brief.

    To start it seems that the self-proclaimed Teenybopper Killa, Darren Thompson, wanted to kill his own mother too.

    When police searched Thompson’s home, Stone said, they found a diary in which he penned a to-kill wish list in that included “teenyboppers”, his mother Janet, with whom he lives, and his brother, who spends most of his time at U-Mass Amherst, where he attends college.

  • Patrick Armstrong pleads guilty to manslaughter

    Judge Accepts Plea Deal In Armstrong Case:

    It’s been almost a year since I’ve posted anything about Patrick Armstrong. The news out of Maine hasn’t been exactly forthcoming. With this story, we get a year’s worth of news all at once.

    For those of you who may have forgotten, Patrick Armstrong was 14 at the time he was arrested for the murder of 14-year-old Marlee Johnston. During the investigation, police found a website made by Armstrong where he professed his admiration for serial killers and the Columbine killers, Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold.

    Today, Patrick Armstrong pleaded guilty to manslaughter. In return for his plea, he’ll serve 25 years with 9 years suspended.

    Tell me if this sounds like manslaughter to you…

    Armstrong is accused of brutally beating 14-year-old Marlee Johnston to death. In testimony Friday in Augusta, a state police detective testified Johnston was beaten repeatedly on the head with an aluminum baseball bat. The detective also said Armstrong told a fellow inmate that he “loved every minute of it.”

    Detective Adam Kelley testified Johnston went to Armstrong’s house to see if she wanted him to join her in walking her dogs. They were neighbors in the town of Fayette.

    So Marlee Johnston befriends Patrick Armstrong and in return, he bludgeoned her to death. And now he’ll be out when he’s 30, possibly sooner.

    It could be that the Johnston family may just want to put it all behind them. If that’s true, I respect them for that. However, in my opinion, not enough justice was served.

  • 23-year-old chef arrested for violent threats and guns

    23-year-old chef arrested for violent threats and guns

    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.

  • Sebastian Bosse’s farewell video

    Sebastian Bosse’s farewell video

    (The Video Has Since Been Deleted By YouTube.)

    This is the farewell video of Sebastian Bosse, the gunman from the Geschwister School shooting in Emsdetten, Germany.

    His mastery of English is uncanny. My guess as to why he recorded the tape in English is that he wanted his video to be seen worldwide and not just in Germany, and, possibly, he wanted to speak in the language of his cowardly heroes Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold.

    It’s the usual whiny B.S. that he wasn’t accepted by the “cool kids” which leads me, even more, to believe that a lot of school shootings aren’t about being bullied but about the fact that they’re jealous that the so-called cool kids won’t accept them.

    When I was in school, I wore it as a badge of honor that the cool kids didn’t accept me. Not only that, but once I got out of high school I never looked back. He says that the other kids called him a loser. His recent actions proved them right.

  • Bosse’s Mutancy Confirmed

    Bosse’s Mutancy Confirmed

    Report: German who attacked ex-school praised Columbine gunman

    Well, I was wrong. Earlier today I said I would be very surprised if the fact that German gunman, Sebastian Bosse, was a Harris and Klebold worshiping mutant would make it to the mainstream press…

    BERLIN: A German teen who stormed his former school with guns and bombs had venerated as “God” one of the gunmen in the 1999 Columbine shooting in the U.S, according to excerpts from his diary published Wednesday.

    “It is terrible how similar Eric (Harris) was to me. I am the further development” of Harris, Bosse said. “I have learned from his mistakes, the bombs.”

    On Friday, Bosse had written: “In three days, it will all be over! The people will lie dead on the school yard, the school will burn and my brains will be blown out!”

    On the eve of the attack, he wrote that he was sad that what he was planning would distress his family, complained that he had never had a proper girlfriend — and hoped that other “outsiders” would “be like me: a Goddamn hero.”

    The article also states that the guns were purchased legally. The article also draws the comparisons between the fact that both Bosse and Harris liked to play “violent” video games. I’m not going to make the argument about video games don’t cause people to kill because that’s just common sense.

    However, I will comment on something else that’s pretty much common sense. Bosse considered himself and Eric Harris heroes. Nothing could be further from the truth. Just like his so-called hero, Bosse is just another cowardly scumbag who couldn’t face up to his own inadequacies. Luckily, he failed to live up to his hero’s “standards” by not killing anyone. He was a failure in life and a failure in death, just like his heroes.

    The flames of hell burn a little more yellow today with the addition of one more cowardly soul.

  • More on Sebastian Bosse and the Geschwister School Shooting

    More on Sebastian Bosse and the Geschwister School Shooting

    Armed to the Teeth and Crying for Help:

    This is a very comprehensive article from Spiegel Online about Sebastian Bosse and the shooting at Geschwister School in Emsdetten, Germany.

    Again, the similarities between Bosse and Kimveer Gill continue, even though I’m sure the two incidents are mostly unrelated. The article goes into detail about how Bosse was an outcast when he attended Geschwister. He also obsessed with his school years even after he left the school. And also, like Kimveer Gill, Bosse had a fascination with guns and taking pictures of himself posing with guns he owned.

    As a matter of fact, on the day of the shooting, Bosse was due in court on charges of possessing an illegal firearm. Of course, he played so-called violent video games and listened to metal, but I personally think that had nothing to do with his rampage, but I’ll get into that a little bit later. And of course, the German government is having the knee-jerk reaction to ban these so-called violent games.

    And like most of his cowardly predecessors, Sebastian Bosse took the coward’s way out by killing himself rather than facing charges.

    There are two mirrors of his farewell letter which are here and here, but both are in German and are frequently exceeding bandwidth. If they ever come back up I will try to make a copy and post it here.

    Here are some excerpts from his farewell letter…

    ‘This revenge will be carried out so brutally… that the blood will freeze in your veins. I hate these people and their kind. They must all die.’

    Source

    “If you realize you’ll never find happiness in your life and the reasons for this pile up day by day, the only option you have is to disappear from this life,” he wrote in a farewell message he posted on the Internet. “The only thing I learned intensively at school was that I’m a loser,” he wrote.

    Peer pressure seems to have plagued him throughout his adolescence. He said he realized he lived in a “world in which money rules everything, even in school it was only about that. You had to have the latest cell phone, the latest clothes and the right ‘friends.’ If you didn’t, you weren’t worth any attention. I loathe these people, no, I loathe people,” wrote Sebastian. “What’s it all for? Why should I work? To break myself and retire at 65 and kick the bucket five years later?”

    Source

    A reader named Toby sent me Bosse’s LiveJournal. It’s in German and the posts are over a year old. However, I did notice in his profile that he was a member of a known Columbine “fan” community. That’s right, kids, Sebastian Bosse was a mutant.

    In my opinion, that was the real reason behind the shooting. He was nothing more than a Klebold and Harris worshiping copycat scumbag. But I’d be very surprised if that makes it to the mainstream media. They’ll be too concerned with the ridiculous notions that video games and metal music had something to do with this.

  • Murder groupies

    Murder groupies

    Even campus killers have their groupies:

    This is an interesting article about a reporter’s first encounter with mutantdom.

    As a matter of fact, it’s such a good article I can’t pick what to quote. So I’ll give you just a brief taste.

    “You wanna know why there has only been three school shootings in Quebec? It’s because the people here don’t have the balls to do it, as much as they want to … as much as they plan it all … make `hit lists’ and just wish they had the guts that Eric and Dylan had … you know … the real victims of Columbine! They are looked up to by many bullied high school students … and many believe that the bullies got what they deserved on April 20th, 1999.

    “Kimveer will be greatly missed by the people who actually understood him … the people who don’t have their heads up their asses.”

    Welcome to my world. I get e-mails like this all the time.

    Hopefully, this article will be read by parents and others to let them know that these kinds of murderer worshiping people exist and one of them may be a family member. And if it is, please get them the help they need.
