(Predating the Tucson shooting) For a short period of time, Jared Lee Loughner was an active user on infamous forum dedicated to conspiracy theories worldwide, Above Top Secret. His online alias, Erad3, published a total of four consecutive theories within the year 2010. Laughner's reputation on this website long before his attack was laughably ignominious. Ironically, many users criticized his nonsensical claims for being absent of any substantial evidence, that he came off as nutty. Many also outright alleged Laughner of being a troll. (Criticisms such as these were rich, coming from ATS’ very own community.)

What really caught my attention as of reading over these posts was Loughner's bizarre style of writing. His writings, much like speaking in riddles, were not limited to ATS - slideshows residing on his Youtube channel are formatted all the same. Each point he makes consists of, let's say, <40 words. He will take his minimal statement and will, in the best way I could describe, antithetically summarize it - however, sometimes, he simply summarizes sans antithesis. This applies to every one of his posts. Occasionally, his 'summarization' will result in something much lengthier than his initial statement. I just cannot understand, I’m curious if this was supposed to be a writing technique to emphasize his points via reiterating his text, drilling the information into our skulls. Unfortunately, to me and others, he ends up coming off as a broken record.

"If the design of the NASA Space Shuttle keeps the black body temperature of −454 °F from the outside orbit then the NASA Space Shuttle is at a temperature for human life. The NASA Space Shuttle isn’t at a temperature for human life. Hence, the design of the NASA Space Shuttle doesn’t keep the black body temperature of −454 °F from the outside orbit."

(An excerpt by Erad3, All aboard with the empty NASA Space Shuttles! , page 1 (abovetopsecret.com))

I think it is also beneficial to mention that Loughner exhibited an abhorrent fixation for advanced literature. Which, in my opinion, only serves his internet persona as all the more complex.

"I failed. I'm not an Assassin. I ruined my life for nothing." - Jared Lee Loughner

Throughout Jared Lee Loughner's psychological evaluation, Loughner's former psychologist detailed his behavior amid his assessments as, "Logical, alert and oriented, organized and goal-directed thinking. "Competent when maintaining eye contact for long periods of time".

At one point during an interview with Loughner, Loughner accused Tucson shooting victim, Gabrielle Giffords' recovery as "fake". Days later, Loughner doubled down, accusing Giffords' appearance on his television as "Not the real Gabrielle Giffords". Loughner's psychologist combatted Loughner's inconsistencies littered throughout his accusations, resulting in a breakthrough. Loughner admitted, "I was fucking with you before. I just wanted to see what you would say." When questioned about this comment, he exclaimed "Well, she's dead to me." Loughner's subsequent disappointment regarding Gifford's recovery was neither subtle, nor virtuous. "I failed. I'm not an Assassin. I ruined my life for nothing."

Following this evaluation, Jared Lee Loughner was formally diagnosed with Paranoid Schizophrenia.
