Was the Loughner mugshot faked?

Wouldn't surprise me in the least. That was actually my first thought when I saw it, it's almost designed too perfectly. It's designed as if it was meant to be on a movie poster for a Hollywood movie.
 
Yeah, this would not be the first time that the media has put out doctored photos. Remember when Fox News was doctoring images of prominent democrats, I can't remember the two people that they altered.

But it has been done before.
 
Here is that story:

I take that back. The mouth does indeed seem to have been singled out and changed.

Speaking of Fox, I just noticed that Bill Kristol has that same, extended, Joker-like grin...

Yes it has.
I'm not sure if it was faked or staged. But it did seem suspicious.
 
Correction.
It is the same site an anonymous poster used to post on as "erad3".

Unless you have actual proof that he did in fact author those posts.

And even it was was him, I fail to see the point.
 
The need for a verifiable internet ID so as to better track down crazy people posting crazy shit on forums and prevent these tragedies?

That is our current administration's position, I'm sure, but I don't know if that was the point SpiritOf1776_J4 was making.

I'm sure there is another record to tie a long time poster to Jared on that site and whatever email address he used, if it is his.

It isn't true that it is anonymous. The posts are tied to a particular nickname over time. Anonymous is guest access.

Erad was used on a gaming site by Jared as well, allegedly. General thought is its Jared name with the letters mixed to Erad, not exactly an anonymized nickname either if it is Jared.

On classitup10, which is claimed to be Jared's, he doesn't ever use his voice or show his face (uses a mask); to keep his anonymity presumably, then spells out his name in full, and links to a myspace account where he writes to a highschool friend. FYI - of the list of times Jared has called the police, one time was to complain his myspace ID was stolen. Odd in context to wondering what is actually his online.

Actually, the jab was at the site itself. They aren't exactly a disinterested party to come up with an editorial. I was pointing out that you'd probably want a different source if you were referencing that to support an opinion.

Yes, well all I know is that most of the people thatpost links to that site on this site are some of the craziest mothers posting here on rpf. :)
