Mass shootings by young males

What is it about 18-20 year old males that makes them want to take semi automatic rifles, go to a public place and shoot as many people as they can before they either shoot them selves or make a fast get away - like a true coward.
What makes them do such a thing?
There are still mass shootings waiting to happen at your local shopping mall or movie theatre in the coming days.

@MasterLee I’m willing to bet a dollar that he is a disillusioned Republican.
MasterLee · 56-60, M
@justanothername you'd lose

@MasterLee Killing a lot of people without any reason is hardly a political action. These murderers are just psychos.
MasterLee · 56-60, M
@helenS yes but it comes out later
justanothername · 51-55, M
@MasterLee Why? Republicans are more likely to be self absorbed extremists with a bone to pick against society. They tend to have a Blame every other mother fucker approach to life, just like Trump.

@justanothername You are going too far. American Republicans = self absorbed extremists? Come on! 😏
You can find self absorbed extremists everywhere.
justanothername · 51-55, M
@helenS True. Will be interesting to see what his views are.
@MasterLee Now what's your excuse???
helenS · 36-40, F
@ElwoodBlues In the left picture he looks like a European left-wing philosophy student.
SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M
@ElwoodBlues You really buying that this guy is a Trump supporter Peckerwood? 😳
@SumKindaMunster Evidenceso far says the claim made by @MasterLee is bulllshit. If you've got better evidence, then by all means present it.
SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M
@ElwoodBlues I'm surprised you haven't done your own research. You seemingly pride yourself on that.

Noticed you didn't answer my question, kinda dodged it actually.

You think this guy is a Trump supporter?
@SumKindaMunster Dude! I don't leap to conclusions!! There isn't enough data out there to conclude either way. However, there IS enough data to refute ML's silly claim.
SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M
@ElwoodBlues Dude! Only if you are horribly biased and hoping there will be some sort of last minute revelation about the guy's political persuasion. The data is in, he clearly had left wing attitudes and beliefs, there is NO WAY he was a Trump supporter.

I'm glad we had this discussion. 😘
MasterLee · 56-60, M
@ElwoodBlues I was proven correct
@SumKindaMunster [quote] The data is in, he clearly had left wing attitudes and beliefs[/quote] What data? Got a link where he's not making love to Trump flags??
SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M
@ElwoodBlues I really appreciate this, because it utterly refutes your ridiculous bullshit that you are data driven and draw your conclusions through evidence. The evidence is there, again you are hoping some last minute revelation comes through that will vindicate you.

[quote]However, a Twitter account using the alleged suspect’s artist name scrolls through what posts he “liked” on the platform — most of which indicate support for arresting Trump supporters who protested the results of the 2020 Presidential Election and rioted at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021.[/quote]

[quote]the one with him in the flag seems to be acting out a suicide attempt with the flag, and the picture of him wearing a “Where’s Waldo?” outfit appears to be mocking the Trump rally. That’s actually a play on a joke that Jimmy Kimmel made about Donald Trump. So, it’s not something a Trump supporter would be doing. You often find leftists protesting at Trump rallies, too.[/quote]

He liked multiple updates from Biden on Twitter.

[quote]One thing that is difficult to ascertain from Crimo's online footprint is whether the shooting may have been ideologically motivated. Authorities say they have no indication that the shooting was racially or religiously motivated.

After the shooting Monday, some images of Crimo spread rapidly on social media, including a photo in which he wore a Trump flag across his shoulders and another at a Trump rally. A video posted by Crimo shows him among a crowd waiting outside an airport for Trump to land nearby in Air Force One.

But Holt says a handful of photos are not enough to indicate some sort of political leaning or right-wing extremism. "I haven't seen anything that really definitively places this in the politically motivated violence bucket just yet," he said.[/quote]
MasterLee · 56-60, M
@SumKindaMunster they cropped the antifa flags out of the picture
@SumKindaMunster Fresh off redstate.com, [b]LOL!!![/b]

"suicide attempt with the flag" - you really buying that??

[quote]But Holt says a handful of photos are not enough to indicate some sort of political leaning or right-wing extremism. "I haven't seen anything that really definitively places this in the politically motivated violence bucket just yet," he said.[/quote]
You quoted that from NPR but you seem to have ignored it; it's what I said above.
SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M
@ElwoodBlues Are you disputing anything? If so I haven't seen your rebuttal yet.

LOL is not a relevant rebuttal Peckerwood.
SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M
@MasterLee I know. The press is desperate to get out there with those pictures to try and sway morons who believe the first thing they read then forget about the issue.

I'm highly amused that Peckerwood is playing this game, it really refutes his obvious bullshit about being data driven and impartial.
@SumKindaMunster [quote]Are you disputing anything? If so I haven't seen your rebuttal yet.[/quote]
I guess I need to post it a 2nd time.

[quote]But Holt says a handful of photos are not enough to indicate some sort of political leaning or right-wing extremism. "I haven't seen anything that really definitively places this in the politically motivated violence bucket just yet," he said.[/quote]

Compare with what I said above:
[quote]There isn't enough data out there to conclude either way.[/quote]
See how that works??
SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M
@ElwoodBlues I think it's telling that you chose to cherry pick one small detail from what I posted and decided that is the only evidence that matters, the one that confirms what you already believe. I guess the rest of it refuting that the guy was a Trump supporter just didn't matter to you.

It's disingenuous and totally you.
@SumKindaMunster I chose the CONCLUSION of the NPR article.

I think it's telling that you chose redstate.com, a site FAMOUS for its bias! You ignored my question; here it is again: "suicide attempt with the flag" - you really buying that??
SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M
@ElwoodBlues And NPR doesn't have bias? Yes you chose the conclusion that you already believed as I said.
