The FBI previously said the Nov. 20 shooting may have been at least partly inspired by violent, racist ideology based on evidence collected.

    It’s impossible to control people’s thoughts. There’s unfortunately always going to be people like this who become radicalized to the point of insanity.

    There must be something else special about the US, compared to most countries, why here so often these radicalized people grab their rifle, walk into a public place, and start shooting.

    I can’t quite figure it out.

      Impossible to totally control, yes, but very possible to strongly influence. That’s how radicalization happens in the first place.

      Oh come on, it’s not like they have easy access to guns, and no repercussions from violent hate-speech.

      That would be a truly horrible combination of things, unless you enjoyed living like it was 300 years ago
