Why Do People Go Postal, Besides "Toxic Masculinity"

Or why are there so many of them recently, anyway. So Anita Sarkeesian says "We seriously need to address connections between violence, sexism and toxic ideas of manhood before more boys and men commit more mass shootings." Well, I'm neither agreeing nor disagreeing with that, I can't quite wrap my head around it, in fact, so I'm posing the question. What's up with all the mass shootings and why [i]is[/i] it always a dude? Men are just more prone to violence it seems, I guess due to testosterone. There are probably about as many mentally unstable (talking the suicidal/homicidal status here) females as there are males, they're just less likely to say -blam!- it, I'm gonna get a gun and go to work. That one seems easy to me. The reason there have been so many shootings lately could be a direct consequence of the flaws in society, not that sexism isn't one of them, but is it the biggest one? Is it more directly responsible for people snapping and going pscyho than, say, prescribing mental patients narcotics and drugs that alter your brain chemistry instead of therapy designed to help them better the circumstances in their life that are holding them back? [b]I[/b] say not, what say you?

    Anita sarkesian is a dog shit slut whore bitch fart smelling twat whose main goal in life is to ruin everyones life. I agree with the dead/-blam!- threats. She should be slow tortured till she dies then her lifeless body will be desecrated by any necropheliac. Men should oppress women more to piss her more off and make her go nanners zoe deserves the same
