The kids of Sandy Hook, the crazy ass who shot up
the Colorado movie theatre during a Batman premiere, the "Incel" who shot and killed the college girls he felt rejected by.
This is NOT to minimize the existence of race and gender bias, but when it comes to MASS shootings, most seem to be random, i.e. "whoever's around".
