So crazy ideas gets executed because availability of guns and some drugs eliminates psychological barriers? Random probabilities tend to influence things like this but otoh there's usually as can be seen in the headlines above. Some smoldering smoke before the fire starts.

If it were meth or some other drug that tends to get people worked up, I'd agree. But this was an opiate. That's unlikely to do much other than make the guy super chill.

Kid was a meth and heroin addict on prescription meds. A Jewish kid who wore patches of white dominance over apartheid Africa, with 2/3rds of his Facebook friends being black and who voted for Barack Obama in 2012. Passed his gun purchase background checks. Admitted to his homosexual black friend that his target was really a local college, and wasn't reported to police.
There's a lot going on here. But it's the Confederate flag that's the real problem.
