Elliot Rodger's 141-Page Manifesto and Video

In 2012, 20-year-old Elliot Rodger visited a shooting range to practice shooting handguns, buying his first Glock 34 pistol in November that year.

On May 23rd, 2014 in Isla Vista, California, the most entitled 22-year-old misogynist, Elliot Rodger, murdered 6 people and injured 14 others near the University of California, stabbing, shooting, and vehicle ramming people. *Trigger Warning.

He stabbed 3 men in his apartment, 2 of which were his roommates and then stopped for coffee. He sat in his car working on his laptop to email out his "manifesto" and upload his video titled "Elliot Rodger's Retribution". When his therapist saw it, she called his parents- his mom called his dad and they left Los Angeles for Santa Barbara, calling Isla Vista police on the way.

He drove to the Alpha Phi sorority house, and knocked on the front door. When no-one answered, he shot 3 women outside (2 died, 1 was injured). Then he drove through Isla Vista, shooting into a delicatessen and killing a man. As he kept driving, he tried to run pedestrians over, shot at people, including the cops, crashed his car, and then took his own life. In his car, police found 3 pistols, knives, 6 empty ten round magazines, and 548 rounds of unspent ammo.

All six victims were students at UCSB:

- George Chen (19)

- Chengyuan "James" Hong (20)

- Weihan "David" Wang (20)

- Katherine Breann Cooper (22)

- Veronika Elizabeth Weiss (19)

- Christopher Ross Michaels-Martinez (20)

14 other people were injured.

Elliot Rodger was born in London, UK, and moved to the USA with his parents when he was 5. His father was a filmmaker and his mother was a research assistant for the film company. He had one younger sister.

He attended an all- Catholic school in Encino, LA, was bullied severely at Taft High School in Woodland Hills, and graduated from Independence Continuation High School in Lake Balboa in 2009. He had a short stint at the LA Pierce College & Moorpark College, but transferred to Santa Barbara City College in 2011, staying in Isla Vista. He had seen multiple therapists since he was 8 years old. Elliot eventually had a YouTube channel called "Elliot Rodger's Official Blog", where he expressed loneliness, rage, and rejection. He rejected mental health care when he was 18 and became more and more isolated, festering in his hatred for women. And then he decided he was going to make an twisted impact on the world, and in many ways, he got what he wanted because Incels now look up to him.

Let's check out his video and work through that manifesto.
