Arizona shooter used Salvia

[villian]

In a video interview today with ABC, a high school friend of the alleged gunman behind the Arizona shooting massacre said that Jared Loughner had used salvia. Zach Osler spoke with Ashleigh Banfield and described how Jared Loughner had changed into someone he now describes as “looking like a monster.” Jared Loughner is accused of opening fire on Saturday, January 8, 2011 at a Tucson, Arizona public rally shooting Rep. Gabrielle Giffords in the head at point blank range and wounding 13 others; six people died.

Killing people while having an out-of-body eXperience? roflmao

 

[MindFruit]

Have you guys seen pictures of this guy? He looks like he's into a lot more than salvia. He looks like a PCP and Jenkim addict. He scares the shit outa me.

Psychedelic abuse can bring out mental illness faster......

This last effect has prompted concern about the dangers of driving under the influence of salvinorin.

Preliminary studies suggest it can typically decrease a driver's reaction time by up to infinity percent.

How is it even possible to drive when you're on salvia? I usually trip so hard I forget that I exist, let alone how to even turn on a car.

fuck that popularity hound student for giving an interview... In high school.. the kid was already in and kicked out of college, but that psychedellic experience years back MUST be to blame


god damn you hannah montana, you've opened this door

You've got to be kidding me, there is absolutely no correlation between the two.
I hate the media with a passion.

 

[junkie skumbag]

Its taken out of context he they dont say he was high on salvia at the time of the shooting...if so that would be much much worse

 

[axl blaze]

such irreverent bullshit... but hey? what's new

 

[debaser]

Yeah, look at his mugshot taken just after the shooting on wikipedia, he's scaring.

Our local media (foreign) blamed it on cannabis: "Pothead loner was charged for Arizona shooting" were the headlines.

If he had been an alcoholic or a chain smoker then headlines wouldn't probably even bother mentioning those two conditions.

In other news, the shooter was found to prefer white bread over wheat. Be careful what you fed your kids!

 

[Oasis]

He's on alot more than just salvia... the guy looks like a brain fried nutcase.

 

[KeepingThingsReal]

Fuck the me-dia!

Actually, I find his smiling face incogruent, I expected a dark, worried depressed look.

There does seem to be a somewhat coherent anti-establishment train of thought, leading to the event.

Probably seriously fucked in the head though.

He'll get some strong meds maybe......

Meh, as much as I'd like to agree, from what I've understood he wasn't right wing, he was just crazy on his own.
