I don't know about teen/young-adult psychosis, or whether or not it's common ...

... but the attitude that this particular "psychotic" should be 'handed over to the shrinks' bothers me. A lot. Here's why: Usually when I hear about a 'psychotic with a gun' case, the psycho fires off a lot of rounds almost at random, and gets relatively few hits. One in five, one in ten, something like that. This worm was carrying a 9mm with a high-capacity magazine, and he killed six and wounded thirteen without reloading. Nineteen hits out of thirty (or fewer) rounds says to me that he wasn't firing at random. He was picking his targets and taking time to aim. That makes it deliberate, intentional, with malice aforethought. A better example of someone who deserves the death penalty would be hard to find.
