I have not seen any clear statements about that yet. I expect we may see something on it soon.
He has been described as having aspergers syndrome, which is not typically associated with delusion or paranoia.
Technically, there is no reason to call him "psycho certified mental".
I dont see much reason to think this has anything to do with any form of clinically recognized insanity.
Our society often decides to call people crazy, especially when they do something politically and socially unpopular or offensive, when there is no real reason to do so.
Violence and killing are not in and of themselves "crazy".
I'm sure it's comforting to call someone like this crazy, tho. Understandable emotional self-defense.
I think this was a political statement, on the kids part. Inspired in part by Glen Beck and prepping hysteria, and in part by typical young male loser rage.
