I just posted the same thought that some of these killers could be Machurian candidates of some sort. It wouldn’t be too difficult to hypnotize mentally unbalanced people into committing murders. Of course the powerful drugs available today are advertized with the warnings that they can cause violent or suicidal feelings. What about all of that Ritalin that has been fed to kids for years?

This is a lot more than the guns. There are many unbalanced people out there and I think that we are not connecting all the dots in how we should deal with them in a comprehensive way.

Yeah, sometimes I wonder if they are like "Manchurian cadidates" too. I keep thinking of the old 1977 movie, "Telefon" where you had the Bhreznev era KGB (Charles Bronson) team up with our CIA (Lee Remick) to stop a Stalinist era plot where terrorists were placed as normal people in America until they receive a call on the telephone (from Donald Pleasance) to trigger them to blow up power plants and so on.

Also with these psychotropic drugs, sometimes I wonder if they let it happen on purpose to achieve their agenda too.
