    Default Interview With Jerod's 'Best Friend'

    Anyone see this on Good Morning America today? It's an interview with Loughner's best friend from high school. Here's a link even though it comes with a bullcrap 30 second commercial at first. Claims the kid didn't watch TV or the news, didn't listen to talk radio and wasn't on the left or right.

    High school, hmmm, and he is how old now? Are they still friends? Did this guy just want his 15 minutes?

    My brother doesn't have a TV either, but knows all the current events, anyway! Now these are just questions that come to my mind, not detracting from what he said, just wondering, curious minds want to know!
    An Egyptian writer, Ptah Hotep, put patriarchal beliefs as clearly as
    anyone in the early civilizations: "If you are a man of note, found for
    yourself a household, and love your wife at home, as it beseems. Fill her
    belly, clothe her back. . . . But hold her back from getting the mastery.
    Remember that her eye is her stormwind, and her vulva and mouth are her
    strength."

    I have no idea. Watching the interview he doesn't come across as someone trying to gain fame. Said they hadn't spoken in two years.

    Yet you wanted to belive him, so you did.

    If he'd said that Loughner was a Palin-loving Teabagger in high school, but hadn't spoken to him in two years, you'd be tearing his credibility to shreds, wouldn't you?

    and you'd be making 6 threads about it confirming his certified membership in the TEA party. whats your fucking point?

    Schizophrenia typically sets in during young adulthood. It's consistent with psychosis that they were friends in high school and then Loughner's mental health fell apart slowly during the past few years.
