      Humans are temperamental and angry by nature. So, combine that with guns (or almost any other inanimate object) and you have a recipe for total disaster. People use cars while high and kill people, they use bats and knives and other things as weapons. So - let’s give them a weapon designed specifically to kill (like guns) and surprise surprise, they go around killing people. Welcome to human nature 101.

        When I get high I watch cartoons, sit on my couch, and eat peanut butter. The most damage I am doing to the world is my waistline.

        Human nature isn’t natural, per se. Our nature is shaped by our society and culture and other humans’ natures. People in America are temperamental and angry because they have been made to be that way.

          Are you telling me that rugged individualism and a society centered around it’s you vs everyone makes for a mentally unwell populace?

            If that was the culprit there would be a lot more randomness though in the shooter. Instead it tends to be a certain demographic with certain politics in a certain religion.
