I'm just a Texan.

I don't feel that it could be the video game age group that many people are leaning to. It appears that the players of violent video games do so for the quick gratification of one kill and then going to another in a fast action pace.

I just cannot picture one in that age group (14-25) that plays these video games having the ability to have only one kill (shot) per event and pass up multiple targets. To be able to enter a one to 2 day cooling off period before continuing the "game".

Look to the examples of previous mass shootings where as the perps were said to be acting out or practiced with video games.

I will eat my computer if it's anyone in the 14-25 age group who get their jollies playing video games and have decided to expand a bit. I think it's either AQ or domestic paramilitary guys. I don't think these shootings can be pulled of alone without help and it's hard to imagine a domestic lone nut being able to elude police.
