I wouldn't be competent to stand trial once I realized I was going to have to pay for my crime. Let me guess, the voices told him to rob the bank, no, no, I bet Obama told him to do it. An incompetent person would have just robbed the bank, not went to that much planning.

it sounds like to me this guy is not that stupid, because he had planned this thing before he had the guts to get it done, he is no better than anyone else, when you do the crime,you do the time, what happened to the saying of a fast and speedy trial?
