Santa Shooter Beyond the Brink
Where is that elusive point when you have had all you can take and you snap mentally? What is it that will be the final straw and drive you over the edge and what would you do?
Bruce Pardo found that elusive point of madness. Something inside him snapped and he lost all control over his anger, rage and imbalanced form of reasoning.
Bruce went where few people have ever gone and didn’t live to return from that place. Nine other people also didn’t live to talk about what it was like to be confronted by someone beyond the brink of madness.
Each of us has a unique mental makeup and set of limitations on our ability to cope with the distress, stress and the pressures of living. Some have more strength than others.
When that point of enough is reached we change from normal and nice to nasty and uncontrollable. A person beyond the brink isn’t the person you once knew anymore. They have evolved into a creature driven by base desires and emotions often without sane reasoning and emotional attachment.
Many of the people who knew or spoke to Bruce Pardo just before his mad killing spree on Christmas Eve said he seemed nice and pretty much normal. However, a few hours later he had disintegrated into someone that would shoot an 8 year old child in the face without remorse on his way to fulfilling his need to kill those with whom he had issues.
Past feelings and emotions couldn’t stop him and neither could third degree burns. He was beyond the mere limits of normal human pain in a place where the brain shuts down everything except the intense focus on singular purpose.
It was a terrible event that is for certain. Terrible for the innocent people injured and killed and also terrible that something could drive someone like Bruce Pardo to commit such a crime.
Speaking to others I see nothing but seething hatred for Bruce Pardo and what he did, but we must always try to remember that except for a specific course of events it could have been any one of us standing in that doorway spewing flames and shooting people.
Until you have actually been there you can never say never and claim that you would or will not go beyond your sense of human reason.
Something snapped inside Bruce Pardo that day and it could happen to anyone at almost any time under the right circumstances.
The best defense is to vent your pressure. If you find yourself under extreme distress stop and take the time to talk it out with a friend, family member or seek out professional help. Don’t allow the stress and pressure to constantly build thinking that you can handle it all by yourself.
Once you step beyond the brink it’s simply too late.
