What is the lesson from the barbaric murder in Colorado?
By zevi770 · July 25, 2012
In case you don’t know, a person impersonating joker – the bad guy in batman – opened fire in a theater which opened the batman movie, killing 12 wounding 58!
The lesson is simple, movies are to blame, not as one headline I read, psychiatry.
The fact is this:
People, especially boys and men are impressionable.
Where does fantasy end and reality begin?
The answer is, there is no line between the two for most males.
The male brain has a very thin wire between the right and left, fantasy and logical, spheres.
Hence it is my humble opinion, that this man actually thinks he is the joker!
He idolized this character as other people who took on characters from movies, and then went about impersonating him, for isn’t that how all males learn, namely from a role model.
