    They have always been a small percentage of the population, but in a country of 300,000,000 with 300,000,000 guns a small percentage becomes noticeable.

    It seems like this crops up a lot after big tragedies like this. No one really knows why, a lot of it is thought to be stress or depression. Many of the people that do the things we've seen in Oregon and Conneticut, and elsewhere now with the Alabama shootings, have have nearly perfect records before these big events. That's why it's odd. People just seem to have psychotic breaks, out of the blue like this, sometimes.
