I think this starts with too many children growing up with a sense of entitlement as well as hopelessness. They have always received a trophy, have learned that achievement doesn't really matter, that they are not accountable for their own decisions or actions, they have failed to learn how to accept disappointment, that they are helpless victims, the deck is stacked against them, and generally live with no pride, self esteem or hope. It is largely a consequence of broken homes, poverty, poor parenting, and poor education.----

but unlike their peers in other countries who go nuts with a knife and are subdued without too much difficulty, the American deviants have relatively easy access to high capacity/rapid fire weaponry that makes them feel important, powerful, in control for once.

Imagine if the Uvalde deviant only had access to a blade instead of a rifle with a 30, 50 or 100 round magazine. A teacher or two could easily clobber him with a chair without fearing a hail of lead as they came through the door.

The intransigence of gun fetishists are the bane of the USA.
