The 40-year-old Army veteran who killed six people and wounded three others at a Sikh temple in Wisconsin reportedly grew up as a “precious child” in a typical American family, according to his stepmother.

Laura Page, who was married to Wade Michael Page’s father for roughly two decades, told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel that her stepson was “kind and gentle and loving” during his childhood. [...] Page, who was shot to death by police, described himself as a member of the "Hammerskins Nation," a skinhead group rooted in Texas that has branches in Australia and Canada, according to the SITE Monitoring Service, a Maryland-based private intelligence firm that searches the Internet for extremist activity.

So the killer was a Dem. or held certain Dem. values. It’s interesting that the gang to which he belonged is in Australia too where Indian students have been killed in recent years.

I am glad this man is dead and burning in hell. I don't get why he killed those people for what what did they do to him and how would that make his life better by hurting them.
Freaking weirdo and sound like his step mom needs to reevaluate her thoughts about her step son he was a loser killer.

Well, she’s probably right, and telling the truth. But things went terribly wrong somewhere.

He was probably revolting against his ultra-liberal, PC education/indoctrination from the government schools.

If they refused to teach him any hint of morality, and knowing the difference between right and wrong, couple that with the concept of there are no right or wrong feelings, and “if it feels good...do it.”

Well...If you don’t believe in something...you’ll fall for anything.

I lay this firmly at the feet of the liberal “education” system that teaches our kids nothing of value.

I don't understand why the media needs to find something terribly wrong with this guy? Seems to me he was a perfectly normal rational person. And he took a well thought out decision to go after the “other” kind of people he didn't like. A lot of insane things are done by perfectly sane rational people.
