RUSH: The shooting out at YouTube in California, we have discovered a new syndrome: After-Death Attention Syndrome, or After-Death Attention Disorder. You know, it\u2019s not enough to grow famous while you\u2019re alive. Now young people want to be famous for dying. They want to be famous after they have assumed room temperature.<\/p>\n

\"\"And I\u2019ll tell you, folks, I have never seen the Drive-By Media move on from a story any faster than they have tried to move on from this one. Because when they thought they knew what this was about, it just fit their bill. And then as details came forward as we began to learn about the shooter and the reasons, the Drive-Bys said, “Well, there\u2019s nothing really to see here.” And they have moved on.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: The shooter at YouTube incident is big for totally different reasons because mainly it blows to smithereens liberal theory about who picks up guns and who uses them and why.<\/p>\n

I mean, this is a woman, a vegan, an animal rights activist. She\u2019s supposedly the definition of liberal utopian pacifist. A Muslim, she\u2019s from Iran. We don\u2019t know if her parents are legal or not. She could be a DREAMer, for all we know. Or could have been, because she perished. She shot herself. The original report was that she had a spat with a boyfriend or some such thing, and it turned out that wasn\u2019t the case. She was mad at YouTube for its censorship of her brilliance, the videos that she had submitted, and so she went to YouTube\u2019s headquarters to let them know how she felt about it. A person desperate for social media exposure.<\/p>\n

\"\"This woman, by the way, is the extreme case of something that I have shared with you over the course of many moons about social media, that it creates this unrealistic desire and quest for fame, that everybody on social media lies. Well, not everybody. But there\u2019s a lot of people lying about how exciting their lives are and how much fun they are having and all the stars and celebrities they know and hang with, and they write about this. And then most people whose lives are dull and boring read this and say, “Hey, what am I missing? This is not fair.” And they want it.<\/p>\n

They want the fame, they want to be on a red carpet at some movie opening, find out what that\u2019s like. They want to be going to all these parties because they think celebrity and fame is one big party. And then when the whole notion of fame gets its hooks in people, in most cases those people are finished. Most people can\u2019t handle it, particularly those who seek it.<\/p>\n

Those to whom fame occurs after having done something remarkable or having achieved something great or accomplished something, if the fame is attached to something substantive, that\u2019s one thing. But if you want to be famous just to be famous because of what you think fame is, you are going to be, in the end, disappointed, depressed, you\u2019re gonna develop an inferiority complex, and your entire worldview, what you think makes good, bad, happiness, sadness, is gonna come crushing down on you.<\/p>\n

And this woman is the epitome of that which I, your host, have been afraid of. I haven\u2019t actually been afraid. You know, I don\u2019t run around cowering and shaking, but it\u2019s bothered me. I care deeply about our culture. I dare deeply about our society, the values. You care deeply about how kids are growing up, what they\u2019re being taught, because one day they\u2019re gonna be the adults in charge of everything. And that\u2019s why this stuff worries me.<\/p>\n

Kids are growing up in alternate realities. They\u2019re growing up pretending that things that aren\u2019t are. They\u2019re growing up believing they\u2019ve accomplished things when they haven\u2019t, defined by how many likes or followers they have on social media. And the casualty here is achievement. The casualty here is accomplishment. There isn\u2019t any, because fame in the social media age doesn\u2019t require any.<\/p>\n

Look at this woman. After-Death Attention Syndrome. After-Death Attention Disorder. A person desperate for social media exposure shoots herself and others at YouTube headquarters. She wanted to leave this life with as much exposure as possible. She was not getting the attention she craved in life. She thought YouTube was denying her her fame and her getting noticed. So she made arrangements in death.<\/p>\n

\"\"In truth, she should be denied as much attention as possible so that others don\u2019t come across the same idea, figure out this is a way to get what they desperately want. After-Death Attention Syndrome. It is a final destructive, grandiose act of self-absorption. Massive attention after they die is the reward for some of these people, and they don\u2019t even know they\u2019re getting it. They die in that fleeting moment hoping that it happens, but they will never know.<\/p>\n

Social media, I don\u2019t think anything\u2019s new under the sun. I don\u2019t think there\u2019s new kinds of debauchery. We\u2019ve always had debauchery. I don\u2019t think there\u2019s any new kind of perversion out there. Every kind of perversion known to exist is mentioned in the Bible. What social media does is amplify it and make it look normal, make it look widespread, make it look common. It exacerbates these issues for people desperate for fame and attention. Like some people are even willing to upload recordings of themselves snorting condoms<\/a>. We have a PSA on that, by the way, for you mothers, so stand by for that.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: The 39-year-old female, San Diego resident, Nasim Aghdam, maybe from Iran, not clear, but she was ultra-left-wing, angry, a vegan, a PETA protester, animal rights activist, non-NRA member and, by the way, she used a pistol — I guess it was an assault pistol that she used to shoot herself and several others.<\/p>\n

\"\"Get this. Police officers located her yesterday morning, questioned her in a parking lot and let her go. What, did some of the fired people from the Broward sheriff\u2019s office end up being hired out at YouTube? They questioned her and let her go hours before the shooting. Female, left-wing, angry, social media obsessed, was in possession of a pistol. Police were warned. Where have we heard this before?<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: As far as the YouTube shooter is concerned, both her father and her mother claimed they warned the police about her. The police encountered the babe in the parking lot at YouTube. They called the father after they stopped her. They told the father everything was under control. They thought they had the situation well under control, because the father had warned them that his daughter might be unhinged, ticked off at YouTube for denying her fame, freedom of speech, what have you.<\/p>\n

What are the odds? I don\u2019t know this. I mean, I\u2019m just throwing things out. But this seems to happen. The perps are identified, family members of the perps tell the cops, any number of other people tell the cops, the cops go investigate, the cops talk to the perp and they do nothing and then the perp goes out and starts firing away. What is it? Were the cops afraid of a lawsuit from this babe \u2019cause she\u2019s obviously a liberal activist? I don\u2019t know. Just throwing things out there.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Danny in Salt Lake City. You\u2019re next. I\u2019m really glad that you were patient. Hi.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Hey, Rush. Thanks for taking my call and for being the corrector of my kids\u2019 education. You make a huge difference in our family.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Thank you, sir.<\/p>\n

CALLER: I wanted to address, we keep hearing that, you know, the family members of these shooters are calling the police, warning them ahead of time, but it just seems to me that doing that kind of creates lake precrime mentality like we\u2019re calling the police for something that hasn\u2019t happened yet, and I\u2019m just worried — I mean, obviously, you know, the shooter did something wrong, but I\u2019m just worried that it might create kind of a social mentality that we can just call the police whenever we\u2019re uncomfortable with somebody and expect the police to look into it. Does that make sense?<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah. I know exactly what you\u2019re saying, and it\u2019s actually a good thought for an amateur caller.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Thanks.<\/p>\n

RUSH: (laughing) No. Here\u2019s what he\u2019s saying. This After-Death Attention Disorder shooter — that\u2019s what I call her — After-Death Attention Disorder shooter out at YouTube, it turns out that her dad had warned the cops there was something wrong with her, and the cops found her on the YouTube campus before the shooting, and they talked to her, and they thought everything was okay. And after that she goes and says what she does. And you\u2019re saying, if we allow the cops to nab people just because their parents say they might do something, then who in the world is gonna be safe?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Right.<\/p>\n

\"\"RUSH: All you have to have is some left-wing radical saying, “I just saw Rush Limbaugh in the grocery store, and it looked like he was pretending the cucumbers were a gun.” So here come the cops to nab Rush Limbaugh from the cucumber section and put him jail. That kind of stuff is what you\u2019re afraid of, right?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Right, right, and for any reason at all. I mean, you know, my wife could be mad at me one day and call —<\/p>\n

RUSH: One day?<\/p>\n

CALLER: (laughing) Well, I don\u2019t know. She gets mad all the time. But, you know, I worry that it would create a mentality that we can call the police and just expect them to, you know, put up an investigation for something that might not even happen. Obviously in this case something did.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah, no, this is a good point. The reason why it\u2019s resonating is really because of the shooter down at Marjory Stoneman Douglas, this Cruz fellow. There were 66 warnings or indications that this guy was gonna explode and do something, and two people specifically told cops they were afraid that he was gonna go to the school and shoot it up.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Right.<\/p>\n

RUSH: And nobody did anything. And then when he did start shooting it up, the authorities stayed outside securing the perimeter. So in an incident like that, where 17 people died, the frustrations normal and understandable. Here you\u2019ve got this woman going bonkers at YouTube all because they wouldn\u2019t let her be famous anymore. That\u2019s the way she saw it.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah.<\/p>\n

RUSH: It\u2019s the old argument, how do you apprehend people before they commit the crime?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Right. And I\u2019m not saying that we shouldn\u2019t call the police or that they shouldn\u2019t look into it. I\u2019m worried people will take it to the extreme and make false calls now.<\/p>\n

RUSH: I think in this case we\u2019re dealing with people who made threats, you know, it\u2019s not people just acting weirdly. They\u2019re actually making threats.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Hm-hm.<\/p>\n

RUSH: And I guarantee you, law enforcement would tell you that they would love to have a provision to detain people like that for a while. Not put \u2019em in jail as though they\u2019re guilty, but just detain \u2019em, cool off period, analysis, examination period or what have you. If you\u2019ve got specific warnings and enough of them that you know it\u2019s not some crackpot trying to get somebody in trouble, I\u2019m sure law enforcement would like it. But, yeah, your point is an excellent one, actually. ‘Cause we wouldn\u2019t want anybody to be able to be nabbed just because somebody, even a family member, is fingering them when they haven\u2019t really done anything yet.<\/p>\n

I still want to point out the Drive-Bys have dropped this incident faster than anything I\u2019ve seen. When they found out the shooter was a woman, a Muslim, an animal rights activist, basically a left-wing radical, they dropped this babe. Brian Ross is not out there trying to find out if she\u2019s a member of the Tea Party, any of that, for example.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
