Okay, what about mental health aspects? Yes, suicidality is an incredible predictor. But guess what? It’s only there in 30% of cases prior to the shooting.
Suicidality was found to be a strong predictor of perpetration of mass shootings. Of all mass shooters in the The Violence Project database, 30% were suicidal prior to the shooting. An additional 39% were suicidal during the shooting. Those numbers were significantly higher for younger shooters, with K-12 students who engaged in mass shootings found to be suicidal in 92% of instances and college/university students who engaged in mass shooting suicidal 100% of the time.
Oh no it must’ve been trauma then! Everyone knows someone who suffered abuse is more likely to abuse right!? No.
In terms of past trauma, 31% of persons who perpetrated mass shootings were found to have experiences of severe childhood trauma, and over 80% were in crisis
Want to know the real profile? Massive change in personality. Wants access to guns. They’ll TELL someone they’re thinking about hurting others. Loneliness.
NONE of which requires anything even remotely mentioned in that farce of a greentext lol.

You respond as if in disagreement yet the article affirms everything I’ve said lol.
There is no single profile for a mass shooter. Your best chance at getting any one thing correct about them is that they’re male. 94% chance.
I’d be interested in your reasoning here as the article summarily disagrees with your first statement; it highlights an incredible degree of commonality among mass shooters above and beyond “male”.
You’d have to read it to know that, I suppose.
I’m glad you found the copy/paste buttons, but I do wish you’d bothered to read up.
I see we’re projecting in our assessments. I can understand how being confronted with proof one’s opinion is wrong, may you deal with it with grace in the future.
And what of the vast majority of shooters who don’t have such shit circumstances? Lmfao.
Columbine? Las Vegas?
What about the straight up racists going on killing sprees? Aka white people who listen to too much am radio and YouTube?
Congrats, you’ve cherry picked one of like two well known shooters who were like this. Quit victim blaming you rotten fuck.
Edit: For more visibility. I’ve been to my fair share of active threat conferences, meetings, trainings, etc.

How about some possible profiles?

Let’s not pretend the incredibly common pattern only consists of two people while pretending an actual outlier - Vegas - is somehow common.

No, no it doesn’t. And you’re beyond seeing reason at this point so good luck out there lol. Happy Halloween!
