Elliot Rodger, the 22 year old son of Peter Rodger who co-directed "the Hunger Games" on Friday 23rd of May, killed himself after killing six other people in Isla Vista near the University of California.
Elliot Rodger who was a Student The Santa Barbara City College was angry at people for rejecting him especially at the girls who were not attracted to him. The shooting and killings by young Eliot was pre-meditated, there are evidence from his youtube videos and blogs, one of it reads as follows "Tomorrow is the day of retribution. The day in which I will have my revenge against humanity, against all of you," he said.
"For the past eight years of my life, ever since I hit puberty, I've been forced to endure an existence of loneliness, rejection and unfulfilled desires all because girls have never been attracted to me. Young Rodger sufffered from Asperger’s syndrome was in the care of varous therapist until his death.
Rodger started by stabbing three of his roommates to death around 9.30pm on Friday then armed himself with three handguns and drove to nearby Alpha Phi sorority. According to law enforcement agent, Elliot knocked on the door but no one would let him in and that was when he spotted two women standing outside the sorority and fired shots at them killing two of them, Katie Cooper, 22, and Veronika Weiss, 19.
After the shooting, Elliot Rodger returned to his black BMW and drove to IV Deli Mart in Golita where he shot dead 20-year-old UCSB sophomore Christopher Martinez, an unsuspecting bystander.
This police then pursued Elliot, and there was exchange of gunfire between him and the police before shooting himself dead in the head.
In the video posted hours before the killing spree, Elliot ranted about women rejecting his advances.
‘I’m 22 years old and I’m still a virgin. I’ve never even kissed a girl,’ he says in the video. ‘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. 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 UCSB and I will slaughter every single spoilt, stuck-up, blonde s*** that I see inside there. All those girls that I’ve desired so much, they would have all rejected me and looked down on me as an inferior man if I ever made a sexual advance towards them.

‘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. Yes… After I have annihilated every single girl in the sorority house I will take to the streets of Isla Vista and slay every single person I see there. All those popular kids who live such lives of hedonistic pleasure…’
Rodger’s family revealed they had called the police several weeks ago after being alarmed by the disturbing videos ‘regarding suicide and the killing of people,’ that he posted.
Police interviewed Rodger, he told them he was just having issues with his social life. And according to the police nothing in his behaviour showed he was violent, he is a ‘perfectly polite, kind and wonderful human,’ the police said and they didn't pursue the case.
