I don't think he did what he did because of politics. Let's face it, you've got to be fucking mentally insane to pull out a handgun in a crowd and start blowing people away. He was too young to be too interested in politics.
I can imagine it's tough for kids these days. They were raised with all of the good things in the life, and the moment they must provide for themselves - "get a job" - they discover they are in a recession and unemployment is double digits. Rejected from the military, he's depressed, unable to get by, unable to get a job, unable to provide for himself. All of the dreams and expectations a teenager had two years ago - right out the door.
