Numerous journalists have focussed on the disturbed loner who carried out the shootings, citing high school students as their source of wisdom of insight. Many of these journalists are barely older than students themsleves.I am a loner. Neither psychotic nor murderous, just able to garner strength from my own inner convictions and live accordingly. It pains me to see the babbling crowds entwine the terms 'loner' with 'sociopathic' and much worse.A loner does not need popular approval. Again: A LONER DOES NOT NEED POPULAR APPROVAL. Most loners go about their lives in a quiet and non-judgemental fashion neither seeking nor rejecting popular approbation. They do not populate message boards, reply with 'lol' or collect friends on Facebook. Loners are the DU members who have been here for years with a low post count. They watch, absorb, contemplate. They rarely feel the need to expose their deepest thoughts to a multitude of strangers.Gregarious folk rarely understand loners. The saying, 'what you see is what you get' can be countered with, ' Quality, not quantity.'Think for yourself; question authority

"The nation that couldn’t be conquered by foreign enemies has been conquered by its elected officials" odawg Free Republic in reference to the GOP Elites who are no difference than the Democrats
Let me get this straight, the mentally ill and the loners are upset over there BUT the Conservatives just need to suck it up and take the malicious allegations which are unfounded against us?
reply with 'lol'
Yes.Now back against the whipping post, Conservative.
Why must they always prove me right?
