Photos of murderers as Children

I remember seeing a thread like this before but since I can't find it I thought I might as well create a new one, don't post pics of Eric and Dylan for obvious reasons, you can post serial killers as well.

I'll start:

Martin Bryant:

Elliot Rodger:

Mental illness tends to kick in when you age.

Timothy McVeigh(according to Murderpedia):

Andreas Lubitz:

Anders Behring Breivik:

I think based on all the pictures on this thread we should talk about the real issue:
"Bowl cut and Mass Shootings
The insidious connection between the hair of a child and mass shootings that no one wants to talk about."

But most of the time people with mental health issues still know the notion of morals, isn't it? At least with depression. I have the impression that most mass shooters knew that what they were going to do was wrong: Eric Harris, James Holmes, Nikolas Cruz... It's weird because except for the shooting, they don't seem to be bad and mean people (except maybe Eric Harris from time to time).

Their mental illness rationalises the bad stuff they do, take Richard Durn for example, he had a severe case of depression and wanted to kill innocent people because he didn't want to die alone and wanted to feel "powerful for once."

I'd like to add that mental illness can manifest in a variety of different ways.

Exactly!!

I liken it to what Sue said in her book too. How it would be easier to deal with the mentally ill if they all looked like the people on the pamphlets about depression. Wistfully looking out the window. However a lot of times they’re angry or violent or worse.

Stop posting serial killers. It's forum about mass murderers.

"A place to discuss the Columbine High School Massacre along with other school shootings and crimes." So I grant you that this thread was posted in the "other mass shootings" sub-thread but does it really matter? I am not interested in serial killers and so I ignore them, that's all. Most of the pictures are still about mass shooters.

I love these threads about mass shooters as children, Just by watching these pictures you can truly see how childhood was a blissful wonderland of pure happiness, just look at all those smiles. Growing up is the worst thing that happens in life.

I think the same. Children seem to be immune to sadness and depression, and yet we know it is not true, they can feel bad too (although I guess if you already have a depression when you are a child, you will have trouble with it too when you grow up). I wish I was still 10 year old, when people protect you and you didn't realize that the world is not that good yet.

You're comment made me think that this cute, smiling and innocent little boy:

Mac DeMarco - Salad Days wrote:

As I'm getting older, chip upon my shoulder
Rolling through life, to roll over and die

Missing hippy John, salad days are gone
Remembering things just to tell ‘em so long

Oh mama, actin' like my life's already over
Oh dear, act your age and try another year

Always feeling tired, smiling when required
Write another year off and kindly resign

Salad days are gone, missing hippy Jon
Remember the days just to tell ‘em so long

Oh mama, actin' like my life's already over
Oh dear, act your age and try another year
