{{Quote|All I ever wanted was to love women, and in turn to be loved by them back. Their behaviour towards me has only earned my hatred, and rightfully so! I am the true victim in all of this. I am the good guy. Humanity struck at me first by condemning me to experience so much suffering. I didn’t ask for this. I didn’t want this. I didn’t start this war. I wasn’t the one who struck first. But I will finish it by striking back. I will punish everyone. And it will be beautiful. Finally, at long last, I can show the world my true worth.|Excerpt from Rodger's manifesto.}} | {{Quote|All I ever wanted was to love women, and in turn to be loved by them back.

Following turning 22, Rodger began showing signs of mental instability, such as posting racial abuse online and making videos where he claimed he would gain revenge on all those who led to him being alone. | Following turning 22, Rodger began showing signs of mental instability, such as posting racial abuse online and making videos where he claimed he would gain revenge on all those who led to him being alone. Then on 23rd May 2014, he stabbed three of his male roommates to death in their apartment, before hammering on the door of a sorority house. When they wouldn't let him in, he started shooting people randomly on the street using a Glock 34 and a SIG Sauer P226. Taking his car, he went on a rampage shooting at people randomly, before engaging in a gun battle with the police, which climaxed with him crashing his BMW and then shooting himself. | ||
Before his rampage, he confessed, "I'm 22 years old and I'm still a virgin. I've never even kissed a girl." And on his way to the sorority house, he posted "College is the time when everyone experiences those things such as sex and fun and pleasure, but in those years, I've had to rot in loneliness" And carried on to say: "It's not fair. You girls have never been attracted to me. I don't know why you girls aren't attracted to me but I will punish you all for it." "I'm going to enter the hottest sorority house of the UCSB and I will slaughter every single, spoilt stuck-up blonde slut that I see." "All those girls that I've desired so much, they would've all rejected me and looked on me as an inferior man if I ever made a sexual advance towards them." Before finally saying "I'll take great pleasure in slaughtering all of you. You will finally see that I am, in truth, the superior one. The true alpha male." | Before his rampage, he confessed, "I'm 22 years old and I'm still a virgin. I've never even kissed a girl."
