Jared Lee Loughner is a 22-year-old "ardent atheist"[1] and a left-wing nihilist.[2] He was formally charged with a shooting spree on January 8, 2011 that left 6 dead and 14 injured, including congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords. He may have been on drugs,[3][4] and has been described by former public school classmates as a "pothead".[5]
Jared Loughner was also a "big video gamer" who "spent most of his time playing video games and listening to heavy metal music like 'Drowning Pool.'"[6]
Jared Loughner would reportedly say to friends:[7]
| “ | I'm pretty sure I've come to the conclusion that words mean nothing. | ” |
and that
| “ | Life 'means nothing.' | ” |
Jared Loughner "talked about reading Friedrich Nietzsche’s book The Will To Power and embraced ideas about the corrosive, destructive effects of nihilism — a belief in nothing. ... Neighbors ... would not chase after a ball that landed in the Loughners' backyard. 'They had to buy a new one.'"[8]
Jared Loughner mocked an Army policy of distributing mini-Bibles to new recruits.[9] He publicly listed The Communist Manifesto, Mein Kampf and We the Living by Ayn Rand as some of his favorite books.[10] Loughner had a occult shrine in his backyard and was obsessed with the occult and mind control.[11] Throughout Loughner's attendence at his public high school, it was part of a network called Small Schools Workshop, which was founded by communist and terrorist Bill Ayers and funded in the 1990s by Barack Obama.[12]
Loughner failed a urine drug test when he applied to join the U.S. Army, and was rejected for that reason.[13] But as of January 10, 2011, there has been no release of any drug tests performed on Loughner following the shooting. Arizona recently passed a law legalizing medical marijuana.[14] His close friend claimed that Loughner has been drug-free since 2008,[2] but his late-night postings on video game forums within the last year were suggestive of drug use.[15] Friends say he believed the United States was responsible for the 9/11 terrorist attacks.[16]
