But you're right, mass murderers in this country have tended to be young caucasian men ..with the very notable exceptions of the 9/11 murderers, and the Fort Hood murderer.

Serial killers otoh tend to be of more "diverse" backgrounds. Remember the DC snipers? And Wayne Williams, the Atlanta serial killer.

The guy who did the Happy Land Arson murders, where 87 people died and which was one of the biggest mass murders in the US, was Cuban-born Julio González.
