    I would also zoom in on the suicide of the attacker.

    That’s some wild stuff to show these people needed help loooong before they did this.

      Homicidal ideation does not always equate to wanting to live with having killed someone, and a lot of these people are closer to normal than they realize until they are facing potential consequences for their actions. I would posit that killing oneself after doing something so heinous is one of the saner outcomes.

      A lot of people experience “fucked around, found out” immediately or shortly after they cross a line, before anyone else has a chance to tell them they fucked up.

        Yeah I can see that too. It’s a shame the US government banned research into firearm violence by the CDC.
