“I said, ‘Yes, this looks like it’s him,’” Rotkovich recalled. “Too many coincidences for it not to be him.”

In reading the article, it seems Mr. Rotkovich did a better job of determining the right person than Brian Ross did. It's not that hard if you really want to...

Obviously we need to ban comic books.

Well, there is one place he didn’t practice.

The one-line email to which he attached the application concluded with a curt and businesslike sentence signed in a way that further put off the rural Colorado gun range proprietor: “Cheers, James,” according to a copy obtained by FoxNews.com. "That also struck me as very, very strange,” Rotkovich said. “Who says ‘Cheers?’”

Uh.....

.... a lot of people?

Cheers,

Think it is time to hear from his family or 'physician'. . .

Why did his Mother, confirm so readily; that this monster Joker; could well be her son. When did the 'split' begin?

And yes, for sure; was he 'aided' and abetted along the way; per this entire scenario.

Is schizohrenia and 'neuro science' a bad combination? Seems there is a threshold here; am wondering what is was; or whom. Maybe, only the 'Joker'; his guide; or, maybe not.

(Do wonder when the pic taken - with Holmes red hair, blazing.)

Seems to me that the “Gun Lobby” figured this guy out pretty quickly. It’s tragic that our “finest” could not do the same.

Rotkovich planned to vet Holmes in person before he would be allowed to step on the range and pick up a weapon, let alone become a member.

We need to put him in charge of vetting presidential candidates and foreigners wanting flying lessons.

[struggle]

The slurring and withdraw from society really beginning to back up schizophrenia as a reason.

I think the action necessary is to ban Hollywood from inciting riot and yelling fire in a crowded theater , It is the left in Hollywood that warp the minds of our youth with evil and they do it for money

[GeorgeWashingtonsGhost]

I’d be curious to know if James’ parents knew or anticipated that he would do something like this. Obviously, James is responsible but his mother knows her son was a powder keg. “Was your son an OWS black bloc groupie?” would be a good question to ask her.

As a very astute movie audience member stated “let’s face it, there are a few Fruit Loops out their that are going to kill regardless of the means, bombs, guns, gas whatever. You’re not going to stop this kind of thing unless you completely control ever single member of society.”

With liberty and freedom comes a certain degree of risk. Personally I’ll take that risk, thank you.

[JoeFromSidney]

What I haven't seen is any mention of who bankrolled this guy. I've seen figures from $8K to almost $20K for his gear. How did an unemployed graduate student get that kid of money?

Leads one to suspect this might be a false flag operation. Reichstag fire, anyone?

Was James Holmes, Suspected Aurora Shooter, Inspired by Batman? [actually, Batman enemy, The Joker]
ABC's Good Morning America, via YahooNews ^ | July 20, 2012 | SHEILA MARIKAR, Good Morning America

"Violence like the massacre that happened in Aurora, Colo., today is a staple of action films, including Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy. A similar, now haunting, scene unfurls in "The Dark Knight Rises" when a masked villain leads a violent gang into a packed football stadium and deploys guns and explosives on the unsuspecting crowd.

While there has been no indication as to the motives of James Holmes, the suspected 24-year-old shooter who is now in custody, new evidence suggests that he was inspired by the Batman series of comic books and/or movies.

Law enforcement sources confirmed to ABC News that Holmes said "I am the Joker" when apprehended by authorities. His hair was painted red, the same hair color of Heath Ledger's Joker at one point in 2008's "The Dark Knight."

[snip]

There are more parallels. In Frank Miller's iconic 1986 comic book series, "The Dark Knight Returns," the Joker murders a television studio audience by deploying "smile gas." Holmes began his massacre by setting off smoke bombs throughout the theater.

In the same book, Arnold Crimp, a disturbed man who just lost his job, pulls out a handgun in an adult film theater and kills three people. A scene from the strip shows a news anchor saying, "Three slain in Batman-inspired porn theater shoot-out." ..."

The 911 terrorists while in flight school were only interested in flying an aircraft but had no desire to learn how to land.

Remember that oldie but goodie red flag?

"That also struck me as very, very strange,” Rotkovich said. “Who says ‘Cheers?’”

It's a generational thing related to the Internet. I remember the first time I saw somebody sign off a bulletin board with that it struck me as strange. Now it's quite familiar and I've even done it myself.

When we first started sending all the messages, it wasn't clear just how we were supposed to do it. Do we start with "Dear" or Hi" or just a name or nothing? Do we close with "Sincerely" (which sounded wrong even in letters) or something else or nothing? "Cheers" or "Best Wishes" or "Regards" were possibilities people came up with on the fly.

Now if it had been "Huzzah and Kudos!" we'd know there was something wrong. (Does that mean we have to keep an eye on Jon Stewart now?)
