    On the other side, how can somebody in any normal state of mind do something like that?

    And from the clouds a mighty voice spoke:
    "Smile and be happy, for it could come worse!"

    And I smiled and was happy
    And it came worse.

    Oh, he can if he is a fanatic blinded from his own propaganda. Just look the history, from the SS and Nazi back to Crusades and Inquisition. Do you think they all were insane or religious nut cases? What about the suicide bombers? Most of them are not insane, stupid fanatics and sociopaths yes, but not insane.

      Here's what an insane person does. 1. Plan the operation for over nine years and gather hundreds of thousands of dollars for the plan. 2. Visited many countries to seek ammunition and arms for the plan. 3. Prepare a detailed manifesto running thousands of pages. 4. Start a fake farm to procure chemicals to make the explosives. 5. Produce harmless chemicals as part of consignment to avoid suspicion. 6. Post a YouTube video explaing your plan before the attack. 6. Dress as a Police officer before shooting to avoid suspicion and cause maximum casuality. 7. Associate with various hate groups to gain influence. And yes, insane people always do that.

        Where in my rant did I mention ANYTHING about race? I care that he's not eligible to be president, and that he's a retard. Race doesn't even enter into the picture for me (I'm sure it matters to some folks, but not to me).

        John, That would be the "Obama is an anti-American foriegn-born retard" bit which gave me that impression. Rob ps. I guess I'm part of that "Anti-American Foreign Born" group, unlike your president. Out flag is the same as yours, but burning.

          I take some offense to your reply. I have children of my own and love them dearly. Hitler was completely sane. A lot of people tag the word "insane" on to people who perform unspeakable acts in order for them to deal. Therefore, a lot of people would say that Hitler was insane...which he was certainly not.

          Again, I do wonder at your definition of sanity. Sorry if I caused offence, but by my reckoning anyone who thinks it OK to commit either of these kind of atrocities is clearly not sane. I think you may be confusing the legal definition of sanity, which defines if someone may be punished, from the medical one.

            No worries. Just because you kill people doesn't make you insane. Now if your dog told you to kill someone, then I would consider you to be insane. Do you get it now? ;)

              I understand your point, but disagree. If someone kills for financial or similar gain, then I tend to agree - they've made a decision to put that above someone else's life. When someone does it for other reasons, I tend to think they're insane. If someone does it because their dog told them to, obviously barking.
