The Navy Yard gunman responsible for one of the largest mass murders in Washington D.C. history was treated for Schizophrenia, according to law enforcement officials.
Navy reservist Aaron Alexis, 34, was treated at the Veterans Administration hospital for mental problems which included hearing voices, the officials told the Associated Press.
Alexis killed 12 people and wounded 14 others before he was shot and killed by police during a shooting rampage in the nation’s Capital on Monday.
His family told the AP Alexis was a paranoid schizophrenic who heard voices in his head. Alexis carried a .45 handgun tucked in his waistband because he feared people would steal his belongings.
Apparently Alexis shared a similar obsession to Adam Lanza, the Sandy Hook gunman who killed 26 people, including 20 children, during a school shooting spree on Dec. 14.
According to a report in the UK Telegraph, Alexis was addicted to violent military-style video games.
Mayor Gray told reporters, “We don’t know what the motive [for the attack] is.”

Right! That’s why I’m sayin the media is bullchit. He may have been mentally ill, but the government will say and do anything to cover up the fact that their facilities are not secure like they are supposed to be.
Come on with this Medical Minute Sandra!!
@ Libra, I don’t either. They’re so quick to try and get the story out without all the facts. I could have sworn they said 13 were confirmed dead.

I saw that shyte and was like
Soooo… how was he even allowed to own a gun if he’s being treated for mental issues??
Y’all know this is the perfect platform for gun control.. smh.. they are going to play on this so much.
But how did he get the other person’s ID? were they being treated at the same place too?
the news here said he had post traumatic stress disorder.
whatever he had….he aint got it no more.
Im curious what the ex girlfriend has to say, Im sure the media will find her, but will she release information is the question. I know the motive. These cats not able to deal with the pressure, yes its hard out here for a pimp….but this is where family and friends need to step up. Maybe dude didnt have any friends.

This is just sad….12 people.
My biggest fear is that people will become desensitized to mass killings like this, as well as the attacks against blacks by police and others who want to randomly play superhero.
Schizophrenia is running rampant, and is highly undiagnosed. Folks are flying waaay under the radar with this mental illness.

When will American start to pay attention to the mental health issue in this country..?
What I don’t and never understand is that USA is quick to get in other country’s business affairs but refuse to take care of the many, many issues “RIGHT” here in the states. Talk about a blind eye….

Taken Grand Theft Auto is not a military game
it’s a game of miscreants, pimps and whores, mob bosses and drug addicts. He may have been addicted to some ish like Call of Duty black ops or something. IF he was truely stuck on these games I take it he was trying to relate to something he “knew” of. He was generally discharged for being a dumbass.

How is this possible? When i worked @a call center we had to scan our badges. Now in the refinery to drive in you have to give your badge to security so they can scan it. How does private enterprise have more security than the military?
QUESTION OF THE DAY:
WHO IS ISRAEL THAT THE BIBLE SPEAKS OF?
So they drove him crazy, put him on meds and this is the unfortunate outcome. My brother was a reservist. I’m not aware of how extensive, if any, psychological tests are given, but surely he wasn’t schizo before being accepted into the reserves.
I’m not a conspiracy theorist by any means, but I don’t believe everything the media just puts in front of us. I’ll accept that something happened, but the who/what/why will be a mystery in any case where the only party who can answer the who/what/why is dead. Condolences. Moving along.
Yes A.J there are mannie, mannie issues here in the US that need attention
When will American start to pay attention to the mental health issue in this country..?

That’s a good question. But we as African Americans have to tackle it also instead of saying “just pray it away” or being ashamed of it.

They are already armed… What the problem is is that they once over the id cards without really inspecting them like they are supposed to.
When they put me on the gate people would get so pissed off at me b/c I actually took the time out to inspect that damn id how I was told to and how AFI said. If you got a problem with me taking your ID all the way out of the carrier to ensure you’re not an imposter to ensure the safety of others to include my baby and myself, then you need to take it up with my boss who will clearly and quickly tell your ass to find another job.

Yes one of the Books that was taken out of the Bible by protestants, so that TRUE ISRAEL would not find out the TRUTH.
