Colorado School Shooter Another Violent Liberal: ‘The Republican Party: Health Care: Let ‘em Die, Climate Change: Let ‘em Die’

Well this sure upsets the narrative.
In one Facebook post, Pierson attacks the philosophies of economist Adam Smith, who through his invisible-hand theory pushed the notion that the free market was self-regulating. In another post, he describes himself as “Keynesian.”
“I was wondering to all the neoclassicals and neoliberals, why isn’t the market correcting itself?” he wrote. “If the invisible hand is so strong, shouldn’t it be able to overpower regulations?”
Pierson also appears to mock Republicans on another Facebook post, writing “you republicans are so cute” and posting an image that reads: “The Republican Party: Health Care: Let ‘em Die, Climate Change: Let ‘em Die, Gun Violence: Let ‘em Die, Women’s Rights: Let ‘em Die, More War: Let ‘em Die. Is this really the side you want to be on?”
Carl Schmidt and Brendon Mendelson, both seniors at Arapahoe High, knew Pierson. They said he had political views that were “outside the mainstream,” but they did not elaborate.
Schmidt said the shooter “was an outspoken kid about what he believed and a good political thinker.”
Most liberals are outside the mainstream. They should seek help.
Via Instapundit. Over at AoS, they noticed this punk was a socialist, but that’s been edited out of the story. Hmm, why is that?
Thomas Conrad, who had an economics class with [the shooter] Pierson, described him as a very opinionated Socialist*.
