On the topic of the Colorado Batman shooter

Why has no one addressed the fact that he dyed his hair like Joker?

He clearly knew what he was going to do, so why would he bother dying his hair?

He walked into a full theater during a Batman premiere while semi-impersonating Joker and shot up the place.

He surrendered and is now “sitting back and enjoying the effects of the crime”, as the lady on the news put it.

They have no other motive.

He’s smiling in the mugshot. Smiling.

Am I the only one seeing this?

The news interviewed one of his schoolmates and asked him if the guy ever showed any interest in Batman or comics. The friend said they never talked about it, but he’d lost touch with him years ago, and since then the shooter had undergone a drastic personality/social circle shift, so it really doesn’t mean anything.

I mean yeah, maybe it’s just me being a comic nerd, but everything this kid’s done sounds like something Joker would do. It seems pretty damn obvious to me that he was a Joker admirer and took his speeches in TDK to heart. He’s become an agent of chaos. He doesn’t need a motive. As a wise man once said, some men just want to watch the world burn.

I was Wondering about this. I heard Something Vage about it on the News Yesterday Morning when I was Wakeing up, but Nothing after that, not even in the Pappers.

From the sounds of it, someware along the Line, the Kids Mind Broke, and he found something to latch onto. That's why I liked The Jack Nicolsin Joker Better. He was Less about the Murder and Mayhem, and more about the Ucks. Heath ledgers Joker though, not so much. It's like he said, he was an Agent of Chaos, A Rabbid Dog Chaseing Cars. His Scheams had no Ryme, no Reason to them.

I like both Jokers equally but for different reasons. I just don't see how people haven't made this connection.

Now it's been on the Front of Every Paper for the Past two Days, and I have to say, this Kid was Beyound Crazy -_- . He Had a Full Freaking Arsanle of Weapons, AR-15 Assault Rfile, Remington 840 Shotgun, Two .40 Caliber Glock Handguns, 2 Canisters of Tear Gas wich is what he threw into the Crowed, and a Combat Knife, Plus a Full Freaking Set of Tactical gear On Top of That. Bullet Proof Vest with Groin Guard, A Thraot Guard, a Balistic Helment, a Gas Mask and a Pair of Shin Guards ! And on top of that, The Nut Job Booby Traped his Freaking Apartment ! This Kid took a Serious Dive off the Deep end of an Empty swiming pool -_- .

And I like Both Jokers too, but I still Prefer Jack Nicolsen. As to why People Didn't make the Conection, it's because Cause they're Blind and Ignorent -_- .
