You want to know what to cause of this is?

Poverty.

People are pushed to the edge and are angry. They take it out on society because that is who they blame.

We need healthcare, higher wages and affordable housing, we need employee protection in workplaces, we need mandatory paid sick and time off.

I’m not defending the shooter, what he did was wrong. But I’m blaming the government for the endless news feed of mass shootings.

There is a solution and it is being withheld.
