I think this is the first time I have seen the shooter referred to as an "incel" sarisataka Dec 9 #21

Yeah. Until today he was considered a hero like DB Cooper or somebody, though Cooper didn't shoot anyone in the back. Silent Type Dec 9 #22

It does seem there is a shift in attitudes happening sarisataka Dec 9 #24

Cooper wasn't a hero..LOL... He's mostly the stuff of "Unsolved Mysteries" LeftInTX Dec 10 #27

It's also the first time I've ever seen requests for evidence of it rictofen Dec 10 #43

"Incel"? How so? TommyT139 Dec 10 #37

Not much on judging his appeal, but he doesn't look so good to me in his mug shot. Silent Type Dec 10 #48

The killer was just as wealthy as the guy he killed. LeftInTX Dec 9 #13

You know he's rich. How do you know he's spoiled? Do you likewise assume all poor people are virtuous? Scrivener7 Dec 10 #25
