Now I completely understand the kind of rage that will make a person o after a single person, because they believe that person has done them wrong, but I do not get taking out a bunch of people unrelated to a situation.
Or the kid who shot, stabbed, and ran over a bunch in Ca. not too long ago, because he couldn't get laid.
You never heard of these things fifty years ago but something in society is saying to a weak mind that this type of reaction to a situation is okay, is it in the water?

The "solo wack-job" is a more recent phenomenon. There's something about the modern world that affects some individuals in this way. They even have them in Russia and China but you'd never heard about it.
I wouldn't even try to understand why they do what they do. That's what makes them insane.
For instance the guy in the theater may have thought he was the Joker for real and was doing what the Joker does.
Cray to us normal folk but that's just as likely as any other scenario.
A few years ago a local patient of a mental hospital killed a doctor. (he stabbed him with a kitchen knife which he had stolen earlier that day)
When asked why, he answered. I though he was stealing my blood and I can't have that.
