I'm inclined to agree. People talk about the motives of these killers, they claim it's for fame and notoriety. I profoundly disagree. They want to let out anger onto those who they feel deserve it, I believe they want to seek 'revenge'. These people are in an intense mental state where they feel what they are doing is the 'right' thing to do, they feel as if they are being attacked and this is them fighting back.
I'm sure we can all agree that they are delusional in these feelings. The problem is when they are isolated, they never meet the 'other side' and only know what they read about them. It's a sad problem where from childhood they feel alone and isolated, they get detached from the real world, they read online from people who are in similar situations, they find a group to blame for their unjust sadness, it's 'their' fault they feel for their failures. It's sad they can end up in these positions, ultimately though some are drawn over the edge and believe all the hate-filled messages they read online, the more we call them naive and foolish the more they feel isolated and alone, only to turn back to radicals like themselves. Eventually, they decide to do what they feel is the correct response, they feel they need to 'correct the wrongs'. Extremists of all kinds are strikingly similar to how they view the world. They may have differing views on why innocent people should be hurt, but they ultimately come to the same conclusion of hurting innocent people.
