I blame most current day violence on the access to sites like or similar to 4Chan (not limited to, just an example) where easily influenced people (like kids) feed off of other twisted humans. We never had school shootings like this before where extreme peer pressure wasn't as easily put on. Instead of having a room full of kids putting on the pressure now it's thousands.
After Columbine, school shootings have become a meme or a subject of comedy in so many dark places online, it has also become a worshiped topic among the troubled. The problem is, You have one kid with mental problems taking things too literal and getting ideas in his head and starts to have fantasies while premeditating his future crime. Attention seekers who may be doing it to be noticed by public, or noticed by his "peers". Essentially fame.
You see pics or vids of the shooters and they are called things like cool or heroes and a certain kind of person would take to that and see themselves being talked about in the same way.
Of course we have had these kind of people before the internet but not on the level we have today.
When you have someone posting how it's cool to kill people rape or abuse and everyone joins in including kids/teens with or without mental problems, their minds are going to go wild.
Same for most current mass shootings, many of them had influence one way or another being adult or kid.
The mind is the most dangerous weapon and if not programmed right, things and go bad pretty quickly.
