Goddamnit, I don't view men as a victimized class. I am afraid this guy is going to pee on someone!

I gotta say, I am talking about rejection by society, not just women. These guys who go mass shooting all have no shortage of people in their lives telling them that their opinions are worthless.
I was responding to the CAPS LOCK, less the anecdotes. Now that I know you're male, I suggest a wellness visit.
I am 1000% not justifying his behavior and I hope he burns in Hell. I am not inviting all aggrieved to start killing. I was just joking that you should pee on your barista. I do not think it would really help.
I am a house husband who supports a strong woman in her career. She is President of her company. I also was campaign manager for my mother when she ran for State Senate in 2012. I am not motivated by “man feels” whatever they are. I am motivated by improving my country, and the lives of both genders, and all races. I…
Why do YOU think he did it? I bet he felt rejected and angry towards women. Maybe someone accused him of owning a fedora?
I didn’t draw the comparison in the first point that you were addressing, it was one that I was responding to. You missed the point in a big way and responded with a hypothetical that I think supported my point, which was that we all don’t do the wrong thing, mostly. Sorry I offended you. But piss on that barista if…
No, not white men. But men in general. We need better emotional health and support for those isolated and enraged.
You are right. All women are harassed and sexual and physical violence is a problem which I would like to help solve. I have two sons, it’s not academic. I am sorry I ventured my opinion as neither representative of the perpetrator or victim. I may have no business on Jezebel. I see that now. And sorry for the tone.…
I don’t think so. I think James Holmes had a Joker fantasy as real as this guy’s misogynist fantasies.
It's not everyone. Just you and a couple of other trolls.
There was not a knee-jerk response about “how hard men have it.” Honestly, if it were up to me, when these fuckers commit mass shootings, we would never mention their names to give them the validation they want.
Amy is not responsible for this any more than the Batman creators are for James Holmes busting out his severe homicidal cosplay.
This was not my point! It’s that loneliness, lack of opportunity and resentment can lead to aggression; check ISIS and why most have joined. I am not a “these men” MRA guy.
You should consider it. Even though you’d end up in jail and ruin your life, you'd really stick it to those fuckers! Since that seems important to you.
No, that’s idiotic to expect a reward for not acting like an outlier, which is my point to all commenters.
The massive, overwhelming majority of men do, too. I’ve been rejected and laughed at by countless women and never raised my hand or a weapon to any, and never will. Your statement is definitely true. The fear of being abused or killed by a man is rational, but probably less likely to come to pass than being laughed at…
Just consider how you’d like men to generalize about what kind of woman you are, and work backwards.
This is an appropriate response to this event, and true. Men who are rejected and disempowered need better avenues to deal with rage and self-loathing. We tend to isolate them, and to tell them that they are privileged assholes, and to go fuck themselves with their iron gun cocks, so that’s less helpful.
Is that a “Crispy Critters” joke?
