O and that guy who just shot up a California street.
Elliot Rodger? He seems to be a special sort of crazy. I mean, have you read his ******** Manifesto? I've seen snippites of it and his web history, and given the Racism, the standard "Revenge against humanity" and tendency for "X guy stopped me from harassing a girl. I am going to kill him and then kill myself.", the desire to kill his family members, the fact that he speaks as though he is trying to sound like a cartoonish villain, his referring to himself as a "God" and as having a better life than him as being a "Crime", his plans to turn his apartment into a torture room... etc.
Point being, this guy is a special sort of ******** up and has a history of being so, not just you're average "Nice Guy" webcomic author. (Say what you will about that guy, he isn't Elliot Rodger)
Though I'd be willing to amend my statement from "any" to "most"
Except that "special sort of crazy" has happened over and over again and only really shows up in WHITE MALE AMERICIANS. Just saying that he's "crazy" lets him off the hook for his actions and ignores WHY he did what he did. Tell me why the vast, vast majority of mass shooters are white males. There HAS to be a reason. I personally think it's our entitlement culture that specifically targets white males. When white males are denied what they think they are entitled to, usually wealth or women, they freak out and go on killing sprees. Usually they only kill single people but we're seeing over and over again them killing multiple people.
Saying that these people are just "crazy" completely negates everything that could be used to make sure that this kind of thing doesn't happen again. The fact that the statistics on this subject are so one dimensional shows a clear relationship between the two factors. White males are statistically far, far more likely to commit mass shootings or be serial killers than any other race and gender combination. We need to look at WHY while not just falling back into the excuse of "O he was just crazy.".
Another point of this is that the police never investigated him. You wanna know why? Because nothing he did or said was any different than what other white boys have said over and over again. The point is that he wasn't DIFFERENT in any way until he started shooting. The responses to his manifesto and acts clearly show why his behavior didn't raise any red flags. There have been so many many who have said "Think about this before you reject someone ladies." and things of that nature. You're also ignoring that white males consistently threaten violence against women all the damn time. Especially when women say something that they don't agree with or might just limit their privilege.
There is a PROBLEM in this culture where white males think threats and violence is an acceptable solution and it needs to be addressed. There is nothing "crazy" about any of these shooters unless you say that all white men are crazy in that way. I don't know if you're actually a white male but if you are you should look at yourself and at your friends and try to FIX this problem rather than push it under the rug again. Even if you're not white but are still male you should do it as well. While it's not as prevalent in other races these issues still occur. And before you say something like "I don't do stuff like that." or "NOT ALL MEN!" think about if you've ever threatened someone with anything violent even jokingly. Think about if you've ever said even vagely threatening things againt someone who has rejected you. These things contribute greatly to this culture that creates the white male (or just the male of any race seeing as even if we open up to other races you'll find that only one mass shooter has been a woman) mass shooter.
Because the motive behind the murders is different as well as amount of victims and type of victims. The majority of violence in the black community is due to gang violence. That type of violence is similar to say, the violence in Syria between two rival/enemy faction. If you don't see that then I can't help you.
No, the real culprit is the white men who become murderers much less often. They're the truly violent demographic. Indeed.
