Aug 9 (Reuters) - The Tucson gunman who killed six people and severely
wounded Gabrielle Giffords has labeled himself a failure because the
former Arizona Congresswoman survived his rampage, according to a
prison psychologist's report released on Thursday.

The report's release comes two days after Jared Loughner, 23, in a
deal that will spare him the death penalty, pleaded guilty to six
murders and other charges stemming from his January 2011 shooting
spree at a Tucson supermarket.

Psychologist Christina Pietz, who evaluated Loughner at a federal
prison hospital in Missouri, said in the report that Loughner had
repeatedly made comments suggesting he thought Giffords died when he
shot her in the head.

At one time, he suggested he understood that Giffords was alive,
according to Pietz, who wrote that she pressed him on that point, and
he admitted to feeling disappointed in her survival because it meant
he "failed."

"I'm not an assassin," Pietz's report quoted Loughner, a community
college dropout, as saying.

Later on in the interview, he told Pietz: "Jared Loughner failed
again. He's a failure. So all of this would be for nothing."



Let's make tools designed to kill people widely available, that way we
can be certain that they'll eventually fall into the hands of the
criminally insane. Ammo too!


Ban all knives!




You're probably stupid enough to believe that the Arizona mass shooting
by Loughner could have been duplicated with a knife.
