RE: Mass violence... have instability and will then there is a way...
The guy that killed a bunch of people with a truck in France kind of backs you up on the Car issue. Really our MINDS give us the ability to be really deadly. It all depends upon how much thought we put into it and what our goals are.
Fortunately I would think a lot of these mass shootings were not going for maximum damage. It seems more like an afterthought... otherwise I would have expected something much worse.
Yes plus I think since the people were not thinking rationally so it could have been a lot worse.
In thinking SERIOUSLY about these things all I have to do is think WHAT WOULD I DO, if I wanted mass casualties. My knowledge is limited, but with what little I do know what these things show is not that scary... I mean the only cases in recent history that are more frightening than what I could come up with are the Oklahoma City Bombing.... because, I have never looked into bombs, and 9-11. Columbine, Sandy Hook, etc could have been WAY worse if mass casualties were the goal.
That's the scary thing it doesn't take much effort to do a lot of damage so we should be grateful that these kind of people are not thinking rationally.
