Why? Seriously why? Are you some kind of obssesive compulsive? No sane well-adjusted person would own 100 30 round mags. There is no logical reason or need for them.

Future profit would be one reason for them...

It's not that being a nice guy turns women off. It's that when you stereotype an entire gender or treat them all as property status/symbols, it comes through and not in nice way.
Disagreed. You clearly forgot or never knew college women.

Treating a woman as an individual tends to work. Try it sometime.
It works even better when you treat her as an individual female, not some androgynous "human being"

BTW you sound a bit frustrated too.

How many guns you own?
I can play that game too:
-Oh, you actually believe that?
-It's so sad and pathetic that you think that way...
-You're just bitter that girls don't like you
-You should get out of your parents' basement and join the 21st century

It's experience talking here. If a person believes, " all women only date assholes", and keeps ending up friend zoned it's not the women it's the person.

For the asshole murderer in the OP, I'm sure enough of his psychosis was coming through to be off putting to any woman he may have talked too.

You still sound frustrated and angry. I don't remember you being like that when you used to help folks in VC&G. :\


Maybe I was just missing it.

I am pretty sure the dude in question wasn't ended up "friend zoned".

His issue was more that he apparently expected women to run out from their houses as he drove around town and start mass chasing him in his BMW.

Perhaps he should have tried tying some chocolate to a rope behind his car to act as bait? :p

Who are you to judge? If he wants them and has the means to buy them, it's his effing right. Just as it's your right to NOT have that many.

Well, well isn't this a surprise. It seems Santa Barbra police officers actually did know of the videos made by this psychopath before they checked in on him 3 weeks prior to this event. However they did not bother to look at those videos at all! WTF.

"Police knew about killer's videos during check"

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Santa Barbara County sheriff's deputies who checked on Elliot Rodger three weeks before he killed six college students were aware he had posted disturbing videos but never viewed them before or after determining he was not a threat to himself or others, the department disclosed Thursday.

The statement from the sheriff's office corrected an earlier assertion that deputies were unaware of the videos when they checked on him on April 30.

http://www.sfgate.com/news/crime/article/Police-knew-about-killer-s-videos-during-check-5514804.php

Of which why are police officers being asked to make a clinical mental health diagnosis rather then a trained and specialized mental health professional? Wouldn't it of made sense to bring someone who specializes in mental health when conducting these check in questionings of people who might be a threat to themselves or others or at the least allow them to watch the video manifesto's they were aware of 3 weeks prior to this event!?!

You're trying to reframe the argument. What you call "assholes" are men who women find interesting and exciting. They are the opposite of "nice guy" who is predictable and unexciting.

For the asshole murderer in the OP, I'm sure enough of his psychosis was coming through to be off putting to any woman he may have talked too.
Sounds like you didn't read his diary/manifesto and are just repeating what you heard.

You're still engaging in ad hominem arguments.

There had to be something seriously wrong with this guy if he was unable to find a woman despite having all that money and thus time on his hands. I have always been extremely picky, knowing that 97% of women are completely delusional and shallow and ultimately too toxic to be around (like, totally). And yet I've still been able to find plenty of quality women, even while having next to no money and working 40 hours a week.

Apparently his father put all his money into a documentary about stars religious beliefs that didn't make any money and his mother doesn't have a lot although she was able to buy her son a used BMW but they still lived in nice neighborhoods with the rich folk.

Yep. I'm loving that they've latched onto this fuckhead dad.

Please keep doing this emotional drivel. Keep it up! It worked so well last time.

Your post is utterly beside the point. Bshole wasn't questioning Spidey's RIGHT to purchase 100 30-round magazines. He was questioning Spidey's sanity, as well he should.

To show you how inane your comment is, let's consider that Spidey purchased 1,000 30-round magazines. Or 10,000. Or 100,000. At some point do you think it's fair to question the sanity of the purchaser? At some point, it's completely reasonable to ask "Has this person gone completely off the deep end in his attempts to "defend" himself."

What's particularly ironic is that although bshole questions Spidey's sanity, he never questioned his right to purchase those magazines. Whereas YOUR comment clearly implies that you think that bshole does NOT have the right to "judge" Spidey.

I did not read his rambling manifesto. But I did read some excerpts. What caught my eye were comments he made about not being able to walk on the streets without guys trying to pick him up, or yelling out remarks about him being gay. So he felt the need to walk around with a pen knife he had on his keychain in his hand. Or something to that effect.

So what he simply couldn't grasp in his malfunctioning brain was the fact he might really be bisexual or gay, and he was inadvertently sending out those mixed sexual signals to others. But in his self absorbed warped reality, he was instead taking out his sexual frustrations mostly on the opposite sex for not finding him suitable for dating or mating.

He appeared gay to me from the first time I saw his pics and then it was pretty much confirmed when I finally saw all his effeminate mannerisms in his ranting videos. But just because he set off my gaydar, don't necessarily mean it was obvious to him at all. In fact, he appeared completely oblivious to the mixed signals he was sending out sexually. But his extreme narcissism might partly explain that sexual denial on his part.

I think his confused sexual condition partly came about because one or both his parents were homophobes who overly sheltered him from the real world as a child. So even though he was clearly effeminate, he grew up expecting girls would respond to him as being straight. And when he discovered over time that girls didn't accept him as being straight, his extreme narcissism when combined with his learned homophobia meant he simply couldn't accept that he was really gay and mostly guys found him attractive.

As far as I can tell, he is a good example of what can happen when misguided parents raise (or brainwash) their self absorbed narcissistic kids to act exactly like they want them to using guilt, fear and hate (and religion) as negative motivations, rather than give their kids the leeway and freedom to learn to live out their own sexual identity without fear of societal repercussions and repression.
