look, i examine the james holmes case. he had no problem with the theater. was about finding a place where he could have people captive and -- >> nothing to do with the fact it was a gay bar. >> no, i think the influences may have been subtle and may have everything to do with the timing. the timing is ramadan and sexual conflicts and the reason that he may have brought shame to his father who is a taliban devotee in islam, a person who is a martyr, during ramadan achieves absolute forgiveness. this was a mass killing that took place in ramadan and it didn't coincide with crisis which for people who carry out vanity mass killings, it happens at a time in their life where they're in crisis, there's to event at the time. so i think there are two quick points about the gay issue. first of all, the idea of conflicted homosexual especially in afghanistan -- among afghani men is prevalent. not a unique situation. secondly the idea of having a space where one has access to and can identify potential victims, that's something that has to be explored. it's a place he
