Liza, I still think that mental stability was a big issue and is always the main cause for these murders.

It’s really sad that no one reached out to him to get counselling or get diagnosed before this happened.

Justontime, no I can’t imagine either.

mollyL, the american dream has changed drastically in the last twenty years.

“Shacking Up” has now replaced marriage and a lifetime committment.

Ego, even though it is linked to jealousy, may be a factor. Probably he didn’t think he could face his friends with what was happening to him.

My husband says these people always do the shooting in the wrong order.

I noticed that, since everyone who was present for the shooting is dead, we have to take the word of the investigators that it was motivated by jealousy.

Do you think there might have been other issues associated with the tragedy?

Sadly reports of a parent killing their family happen too often. It is horrific, and it is terrifying that circumstances can push an apparently normal person to see such thing as the only answer to their situation.

This is simply horrific. I can’t even imagine what kind of monster woke up in that man to make him do that. Killing himself is not punishment enough.

It’s the first I am actually hearing about this story. And yes, it’s really sad, the world has certainly gone bananas.

I agree. I cannot fathom how anyone can kill, much less a parent killing his own children. There are some really disturbed people in this world!

mollyL,

Regardless of the terminology, having anyone in your life who’s sense of entitlement extends to people who’s lives they would control, or end when they cannot control them, is a sign that something is terribly wrong.
