down the rabbit hole. Guy could have been a hell of an actor if he wasn't so fuckin' crazy. This should be shown in every Psych 101 class. Enough here for years of essays and books on the bat-shit mind. Has the NRA found its new poster child?

so he blames the Gov. and everyone else for the problems he created for himself. He starts watching Alex Jones and it becomes easy to shift the blame from himself to the world around him and as you say, he starts dropping down the rabbit hole rapidly to where he has completely lost it. Finally, he sees going out in a bang and attacking the Gov. (cops) as a "noble" thing to redeem himself, not realizing he was his own worst enemy the whole time.

Sadly, I fear there's many more like him waiting in the wings, ready to self-immolate in a similar fashion.

http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barack_Obama_%22Joker%22_poster



A Chicago student is at the centre of a censorship storm after a now famous image he created of US President Barack Obama as the Joker from The Dark Knight was removed from Flickr.

The removal comes two months after the popular photo-sharing site deleted the account of Shepherd Johnson, on which he had 1200 photos.

It is believed he was banned because he left comments on the official White House Flickr page criticising the Obama Administration's decision to withold detainee torture photos and published a photo of a bleeding detainee on the site.

The Los Angeles Times revealed this week that the man behind the Obama-Joker image, which has spread virally online and been plastered across US streets by ultra-conservative groups, was history student Firas Alkhateeb.
