Early news reports have identified the Arapahoe High School gunman as Karl Halverson Pierson, an 18-year-old student. Pierson is believed to be responsible for wounding one other student before shooting and killing himself with a shotgun. The Denver Post reports that Pierson had "very strong political beliefs" and that one Facebook post he authored tore into Republicans as the political party that wanted to let people die:
"[Y]ou republicans are so cute" his post reads, with an image that says: "The Republican Party: Health Care: Let 'em Die, Climate Change: Let 'em Die, Gun Violence: Let 'em Die, Women's Rights: Let 'em Die, More War: Let 'em Die. Is this really the side you want to be on?"
Pierson also described himself in a Facebook post as "Keynesian" when it came to economic thinking, and criticized free market thinkers:
In one Facebook post, Pierson attacks the philosophies of economist Adam Smith, who through his invisible-hand theory pushed the notion that the free market was self-regulating. In another post, he describes himself as "Keynesian."
Pierson's classmates described the suspected gunman's political beliefs as "outside the mainstream," and Pierson as "an outspoken kid about what he believed and a good political thinker." Another classmate said Pierson held "very strong beliefs about gun laws."

Someone forgot to tell this kid that Keynes pretty much agreed with Adam Smith on Free Trade and “free market”. Keynes just believed that international governing groups run free trade and eliminate national sovereignty. In fact, most folks support much of Keynesian Economics (even Milton Friedman worshipers).
StupidNomics now killing folks
Democrats are the party of make ‘em die.
You got that right!
Between abortion and a “time to just take the pain pill” Death panel healthcare, the left is the party of death on both ends of life.
Lenin and Stalin also worked that issue on the mid life stage as well. How long before...???
So like a typical socialist lefty, he tries to act out against innocent women and children out of unfathomable rage for not only being wrong, but for being wholly and completely inadequate in the eyes of thinking society.
This is on the Democrats.
Democrats lie about everything and this unstable lefty believed the Democrat lies.
Well, I am happy to give him the argument. Conservatives are happy to let folks do what they will and if die is their will then do so. I would point out the difference is that Rats want to Kill them. Given the choice between “Kill Them” and “Let them Die” I reckon just about every thinking person would choose “Let Them Die”.
Of course this is hardly surprising.
The ‘story’ disappeared completely after the initial reporting of another school shooting on/near Newtown anniversary.
If the boy had anything ‘don’t tread on me’ or ‘Palin’ ‘cross hair’ target etc etc, media would still be calling our heads. Now it is just impotent ‘more gun control laws’ are needed.
Well, this is not the story out there in the Lame Stream Media they are saying they dont know what set this poor dear off. Only Brietbart has this story? Sounds like they are covering for leftists. Again...

Sad. A skull full of mush—Democrat mush.
You were much too kind. He's a bat sh!t crazy, far side of the moon psycho, and not too bright. He's as bizarre and stupid as Sheila Jackson Lee, and that's saying a lot.
Sounds like hate speech to me....
The media is our real enemy.
Another leftist scum brainwashed by the Marxist indoctrination center (fka public school). His breeders (fka parents) must be so proud.
No question, the guy was a major candidate for a mental health evaluation, same goes for all liberals.
This kid probably watched MSNBC. Chrissy Matthews has one less viewer now.
Sounds like he was one of tingles Mathews’ handful of viewers.
