"What did Elliot Rodger need? He didn’t need to get laid. None of us nerdy frustrated guys need to get laid. When I was an asshole with rants full of self-pity and entitlement, getting laid would not have helped me.

He needed to grow up."

Holy fuck. That's the stupidest shit I've read about this yet. Yes, the mentally ill kid just needed to grow up. I'd bet this guy would say Adam Lanza just needed to rub some dirt on it and stop being a dick.

And he completely blames the event on the culture. Insanity.

Where he should have focused was on the Rap Genius guy's response and used that as a way into this discussion. That's a legit discussion and one worth having. Arguing We should talk about misogyny not mental illness" is horrific.
