Newtown Killer Adam Lanza Was Into Goth Like Several Other Mass Murderers

Adam Lanza

Based on an article containing a quote from a friend of the late Adam Lanza, the 20-year-old who shot and killed his mother, Nancy Lanza, 20 children and 6 adults in Newtown, Connecticut, he was into the Goth movement, which is a branch of Satanism.

Ironcially, Jared Lee Loughner, the shooter in the Arizona mass killing, which claimed several lives, was also into the Goth movement. As were the shooters in the Columbine school killings. The music, films, books, imagery and practices  associated with Goth is full of darkness and depressed. To an already unstable mind, the mix equals disaster. There's definitely a link there.    

Newspapers have also been pointing out, Lanza played many violent video games at home, which have been linked to killings committed by troubled minds. However, it should be noted, many video game users do not kill or injure others.

Lanza's brother initially stated he was "somewhat autistic" but was it a professional diagnosis done by a doctor or his opinion, as autism sufferers are generally not prone to mass murder. Autism is a developmental disability, not mental illness. It would appear he was mentally ill, not mentally disabled, as Lanza was a honor roll student. If he had a mental disability, he was very high level. Once again, the "survivalist" beliefs his mother exposed him to must have done more damage to his already deteriorated mental state.

Authorities are searching for motive in the case, but have been unsuccessful in establishing one, as Lanza was a loner, as was his mother and any evidence on his computer has been destroyed, with police stating he smashed the hard drive to pieces.

Hopefully the Lanza family's internet service provider will be able to give them access to his internet history and accounts online, as by law, said information is supposed to be stored for 2-years (and emails deleted from one's inbox, are also supposed to be stored on servers  for the 2-year period).

Copyright Enforcement Needs To Be A Global Initiative

In order to stem the terrible levels of piracy that exist in the world, combating copyright infringement requires an international initiative. Nations need to come together and form an agency within an international forum, which will interact with ISPs and government liaisons, to address the issues online and on the street, via bootlegs. That is the way said battle can be won. No more bulletproof hosting for infringing websites and online users uploading copyrighted material without permission.
