I merely painted a picture that could explain much activity of this kind in
the Postal Service. I never intended to EXCUSE the behavior, everyone must
be responsible for their actions and NO ONE has the right to take anyone
else's life, except in self defense. You automatically assume this is the
case, and I will tell you that that is a wrong approach. Furthermore are you
personally aware of the activities of this individual before, during, and
after the killings? Or are you relying on media reports? What could have
caused this individual to be so disturbed? Could he have been provoked? I
don't know the answer to these questions but I am certainly willing to see
that there is more than one simple explanation for why it happened, and for
the phenomenon as a whole. I DO NOT CLAIM any special knowledge and DO NOT
claim to know who, what, why, or where. I merely question and present what I
do know, and extrapolate, that does not mean my speculations are true. This
individual could have been a real loony and he just went off the deep end. I
would prefer to look at the whole picture and note that he worked in a
stressful environment, he was already unstable, he may have easily snapped if
just given a little push, did someone give him a push, knowing or suspecting
the outcome? Even if true it is not an excuse for this heinous (or any
other) crime (unless he really was being controlled by outside parties [y]
and had NO control over his actions, which I believe is possible but
ultimately unproveable for the time being and thus irrelevant).

CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list. Proselyzting propagandic
screeds are not allowed. Substance—not soapboxing! These are sordid matters
and 'conspiracy theory', with its many half-truths, misdirections and outright
frauds is used politically by different groups with major and minor effects
spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought. That being said, CTRL
gives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and always suggests to readers;
be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no credeence to Holocaust denial and
nazi's need not apply.
