The shooter was James Eagan Holmes, 24, a graduate of UC, Riverside and a Ph D candidate at University of Colorado Medical.  Wow.

I suspect that there are few things more likely to push a man over the brink than being a PhD candidate.

I'm not dead.

In most other countries, an event like this would force an introspective reevaluation of gun laws. In ours that introspection is denounced as insensitivity. It is unfortunate, and wait we should, but this is inherently a political issue.

Good God, we've managed to inject antintellectualism in this debate.
