It's rather obvious that he is the perpetrator, witnessed by many and it is rather obvious that he suffers from a deep psychosis and needs to be put away for life. Why waste taxpayer money on a lengthy trial? Where are the gun control laws to make it tougher on nut cases like Loughner to commit their crimes?

No old, stale tradition justifies the torture of animals, it just does not.
